So I'm trying to get two individual divs which are close in proximity to share one background image but I'm not sure if this is possible. I've uploaded two pictures, the second being designed for a smaller screen (just to further explain what I mean) http://imgur.com/a/2dypd . I can't imagine two separate background images would work as they wouldn't line up when resizing the window.
The only solution I can think of is creating two plain white divs to overlay on one single div but that seems like a dodgy way to go about it. I'm not expecting a hunk of code to be written for me, maybe just explain if it's possible and a reference so I can learn. Cheers.
Based on #cale_b's comment, you can set the same background to both div's and then use the background-position property to do the delusion of background sharing.
Then you can use media queries to make it look good in mobile too.
Here you've got a simple example that looks like the one you posted:
#wrapper {
width: 800px;
font-family: sans-serif;
}
#top {
height: 200px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
background-image: url("https://placekitten.com/800/400");
background-position: 0 0;
line-height: 150px;
color: #FFF;
font-size: 32px;
text-indent: 50px;
}
#bottom {
width: 500px;
height: 100px;
background-image: url("https://placekitten.com/800/400");
background-position: 0 -220px;
}
#bottom ul {
list-style: none;
}
#bottom ul li {
display: inline-block;
list-style: none;
padding: 0 10px;
line-height: 50px;
color: #000;
font-size: 24px;
}
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="top">
I'm a banner
</div>
<div id="bottom">
<ul>
<li>I'm</li>
<li>a</li>
<li>menu</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
As I understand, you want to use only one image copy of one image over two div and you dont want to use any overlay.
So you can do the following:
On the bottom div, use background-position-y:-100px or any other desired value. This way you push the image upwards.
This looks promising so far, but you will face an issue with the size of the background size specially if you are making a responsive web page.
I would say that background-size:100% 100%for both div would do the job yet it will make the image stretching (unless you go really responsive).
I still recommend using an overlay or even a ready made image. But if you insist on using two div then the above steps should be enough while you have to make your design suitable for this image.
N.B. keep in mind that you might need to use background-repeat:no-repeat

I have a menu that under certain circumstance some items show a little red box (think facebook friend count).
I've recently redone the css targetting the menu but nothing should have changed to cause the problem I'm seeing.
It's a simple div like this:
<div id="request-count" class="noticount"></div>
The CSS looks like:
.noticount {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #E43C03;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 0.6em;
font-weight: bold;
position: absolute;
top: 3px;
left: 3px;
text-align: center;
}
I've checked the page sounce and my javascript is correctly setting the value so the div ends up looking like this:
<div id="request-count" class="noticount">1</div>
The only way I can get this to actually show up is by manually hacking the live CSS and setting the Width and Height, then it shows up without a problem.
The really odd bit is that the content "1" never shows in the div either. Very confused over this and really don't know what to try.
Not sure if this is significant or an oddity with FireBug but sometimes this div appears in the code view slightly tranparanent which usually disnifies that an element is display:none which I'm not getting either.
What can I try to solve this?
EDIT
Here is a fiddle displaying the problem:
http://jsfiddle.net/UYa5Z/
Not sure of the exact reason, but it appears that the formatting of your font-size is not working as intended. With the example that you linked, if you simply change the font-size of the noticount class from em based to px based it seems to fix the issue.
.noticount {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #E43C03;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-size: 10px; /* this instead of font-size: 0.6em */
font-weight: bold;
position: absolute;
top: 3px;
left: 3px;
text-align: center;
}
JSFiddle
Edit:
Based on my second comment below, I investigated the issue further. As this JSFiddle shows, you can keep .noticount's font-size relative if you remove the font-size: 0; from both ul#moomenu and ul#moomenu li. I'm not sure what the purpose of setting those to 0, but given you use px (instead of em) on ul#moomenu a and ul#moomenu ul a I'd suggest using my first suggested fix as it's consistent with the other font-sizes you set in your css.
Make sure the parent of.noticounthas a relativeposition that will fixe the problem
.noticountParent{
position:relative;
}
.noticount{
position:absolute;
}
Html:
<article class=noticountParent>
<div id="request-count" class="noticount">1</div>
</article>
Your ul#moomenu and ul#moomenu li define font-size:0
Since the .noticount has font-size:0.6em, the resulting font size is... 0
A font size of zero is invisible.
Ok, to start off, I'm sure out in the internet there is a good tutorial about this, but I can't even manage to "write down" a possible title for the problem, and I apologise for that.
I like a responsive and simple makeup:
<div class="gallery-container">
<img src="/your/image/url.jpg">
<img src="/your/image/url2.jpg">
<img src="/your/image/url3.jpg">
......
</div>
My problem is: I have different aspect ratio images to show off all with the 3:2 aspect ratio.
An easy solution would be to insert the images as a background to the a element with CSS, set it to be centred contained and then, with a simple JS script define a height to be 75% of the a width.
I used this solution before, but this time is not working for me: I need to dynamically insert the images with PHP.
How can I get a similar effect to the above explained CSS technique but with the images declared in the HTML?
UPDATE: something like this: http://jsfiddle.net/fF6GL/ - but I need the above makeup, this one would not work in that case
P.S. if possible, I would like a solution without using a JS library.
If you can put those linked images into a list, this might work:
http://www.sitepoint.com/maintain-image-aspect-ratios-responsive-web-design/
Ok I got a solution that is working for me, a demo is available here: http://jsfiddle.net/fF6GL/3/
Essentially, I'm just adding the background image on the CSS directly on the HTML:
<div>
</div>
And this is the CSS:
div {
width: 90%;
margin: 0 auto;
}
div a {
display: block;
float: left;
width: 50%;
position: relative;
background-position: center center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}
For the height, I'm using a small clever trick here:
div a:before {
content: "";
padding-top: 75%;
display: block;
}
This won't work on IE, but sincerely, I don't care.
How to draw a line (using css, html or js) from the middle of the page to the right side?
This should work on a different screen resolutions.
The example provided in the picture.
Using a horizontal rule in css.
hr {
color: white;
background: blue;
width: 75%;
height: 5px;
margin-left:25%;
}
<body>
<hr />
<hr/>
</body>
Please see jsfiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/yvytty/jJRAt/
Maybe like this?
HTML
<div class="line"></div>
CSS
div.line {
width: 75%;
height: 1px;
margin-left: 25%;
background: red;
}
Demo
Try before buy
html:
<div id="lineID" class="line"></div>
css:
.line{
background:red;
height: 1px;
margin-left:50%;
}
javascript for more dynamic control:
//you can also put all the css in here
var scr=screen.width/2
var myLine = document.getElementById('lineID');
myLine.style.cssText= "width:"+scr+"px";
fiddle of course!
To my mind the best way to get a line from the middle to the right which scales correctly and is pure CSS is the following:
HTML
<div class="lineblock"></div>
CSS
.lineblock{
width: 50%; /*width can vary yours looks to be ~75% */
height: 20px; /* Random thickness I chose to make sure I saw it on the page */
float: right; /* Always forces to the right-hand side of the parent (so make sure
you're in the top level of the page or have no 'container' div
surrounding your line)*/
background: magenta; /*shows on anything*/
}
This method is both - a) Going to scale to all device screen sizes and be 50% of the viewport, and, b) be dumb enough to be IE 8 + safe (probably more but I only test to 8 it is used by about 10-12% of people internationally* and below that is almost nobody these days).

Correct at time of writing.
I'm trying to get various locations to appear on a image with mouseovers. So basically I have an image and when you hover over a link nearby a hoverbox appears at the location specified in CSS on the image. However I'm trying to get it to happen with multiple links without creating code for each CSS box.
I have something like 50 links and and when I hover over one I want to be able to pull from a db or text file to grab the location where it should create a hover on the image. My original thought was using PHP to help pull in the information from a file, put it into an array and then having the CSS update on the fly. This seems doable if the user just clicks the link as then I can tell CSS what place in the array to look for the location. I am unsure how I could get this to work with mouseovers if at all possible.
The CSS code is very basic at the moment as shown below.
#box {
position: absolute;
top: 100px;
left: 200px;
background-color: #ffffff;}
Let me know if anything doesn't make sense or if I'm just forgetting something.
Thank you!
Ok, so what you're trying to do is called a CSS sprite. Here's what you want (my example is orthogonal to your code, but teaches the principle):
.link {
width: 50px;
heigh: 50px;
float: left;
text-indent: -9000px;
background-color: transparent;
background-image: url(path/to/sprite.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
.link#one {
background-position: 0px 0px; /* This one is top left on the image. */
}
.link#two {
background-position: 0px 50px; /* This one is 50px from top and 0px from left on the image. */
}
You can see where to go from here (and you don't need to use .link#one. I just used it for example purposes. You could just use #one, or even a class .one.
Practice with this and you'll get how it works soon enough. Here's some sample HTML:
<a id="one" class="link">One</a>
<a id="two" class="link">Two</a>
Just through all that together, and make your image a 100px tall by 50px wide .png file with 50px x 50px for each link.
I wrote some CSS in my HTML code to create rollover buttons. Then i tried to run it with IE 7 and surprise! it doesn't run. In fact it shows both the button and underlying rollover. How can i get around IE's inability to cache background images? Preferably using CSS but javascript 'will' be tried.
Sample CSS:
#Menu
{
width: 100%;
height: 32px;
margin-top: 93px;
padding-left: 13px;
}
#Menu a
{
height: 32px;
line-height: 32px;
width: 123px;
background: url("img/menu.png") top left no-repeat;
background-position: -123px 0;
float: left;
margin-left: 3px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #1e1e1d;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: center;
}
#Top #Menu a:hover, #Top #Menu a.active
{
background-position: 0px 0;
text-decoration: underline;
}
Well firstly you are giving conflicting instructions ...
background: url("img/menu.png") top left no-repeat;
background-position: -123px 0;
... the background is already positioned using shorthand.
I assume that your regular and hover states both share the same image, so why not do both with shorthand? Remove...
background-position: -123px 0;
... and for your hover and active states, use ...
background-position: bottom left;
Then have both your states in one image, one below the other (which I assume is what you've been trying anyway).
Image rollover issue comes mainly because of downloading image every time on hovering a link or tab. This flicker is caused by the delay when the primary image is removed and the rollover image is loaded (even though they are technically the same image, Internet Explorer prefers to treat them separately).
check it out complete fix for rollover issue:
http://faqspoint.blogspot.com/2011/12/ie-rollover-problem.html
if you are using the :hover pseudo-selector, then it won't work in IE unless it is an anchor tag. Try changing the button into an anchor. You can still make it look like a button using css.
If you want to use javascript, then have a look at jQuery.
Try making sure your CSS background syntax is correct. Some browsers let you specify the properties in any order however IE will choke. You should specify the attachment in the form X Y (horizontal then vertical). You currently have top left. Make it left top. Also you have no-repeat at the end of the line, it should come just after the url declaration and before the position declaration.
The order for CSS background shorthand values should be:
background-color
background-image
background-repeat
background-position
background-attachment
eg. background: #fff url(example.jpg) no-repeat left top fixed;
