Responsive Container, but Images don't take up full width - javascript

I'm looking to recreate the effect here on images 2 and 3: http://www.jessicahische.is/illustrating/penguinsinbathingsuits
These images obviously have "padding" filled in already by the image itself, but I was wondering if this effect is possible with just jQuery and CSS?
Any help or insight would be great, thanks!

A simple method for centering items. Try something like this:
.box {
display: block;
height: 500px;
width: 500px;
background-color: #eee;
margin:0;
padding:0;
vertical-align:center;
}
.center_item {
display: block;
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
background-color: #aaa;
margin:0 auto;
padding:0;
}
And the corresponding HTML.
<div class="box">
<div class="center_item">Put your image here.</div>
</div>
What this does is simply puts a container around whatever you need to be centered. By using margin:0 auto; you can center any item within it's parent. I hope this is what you were looking for.

jsBin demo
In this example, we use text-align:center; for our element #gallery
and force the image to be 100% height.
Than with jQuery we check that image on .load() to see if the image width exceeds the gallery width. In that case we'll change the width and vertical-center-alignment with jQuery. E.g:
CSS:
#gallery{
position:relative;
margin:0 auto;
width:600px;
height:500px;
border:1px solid #aaa;
text-align:center;
}
#gallery img{
height:100%;
}
jQuery:
$('#gallery img').load(function(){
img = $(this);
imgW = img.width();
if(imgW > $('#gallery').width()){
img.css({width:'100%', height:'auto'});
img.css({marginTop: $('#gallery').height()/2 - $(this).height()/2 });
}
});
Play with the images widths/heights to see how they respond.

Automatic img zooming?

I have a bunch of images being displayed one at a time in a div. The images are all a few thousand pixels by a few thousand pixels.
For example, one image is 4353x2721.
When I preview the page, it zooms in the picture and cuts out things along only the top and bottom edges. It remains the right width.
I need it to just resize it so that it fits the screen/div properly without cutting any parts.
The CSS for that section is:
.largeImage img {
position:absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
width:100%;
}
If I add height:100%;, it still doesn't work. Still zooms in.
You need to set max-width: 100% and max-height: 100% for image. It will make image to fit its larged dimension to parent container limits and scale down other dimension.
Look at snippet:
.largeImage {
width: 150px;
height: 200px;
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
border: 1px solid green;
}
.largeImage img {
display: block;
position:absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
right: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
max-width:100%;
max-height:100%;
}
<div class="largeImage">
<img src="http://lorempixel.com/output/food-q-c-640-480-5.jpg">
</div>
<div class="largeImage">
<img src="http://lorempixel.com/output/nature-h-c-640-1233-7.jpg">
</div>

Make full width image centered in div

I got a div container that has a max height of 400 pixels. I'm placing a pretty large image inside the container. Since the container has a max height it's obviously cutting off most of the picture, which is what I'm aiming for. But my only issue is trying to get the image to center inside the div, so the main part of the picture is shown.
Here is the code I have currently:
<div class="headerimg">
<img src="www.jpg.com"/>
</div>
.headerimg { max-height: 400px; overflow: hidden; }
.header img { width: 100%; height: auto; }
Try using:
div.container {
margin: 0 auto;
width: 900px;
}
div.container img {
max-height:400px;
}
Simple use : text-align:center
live example is here >>>>
div{
max-height:400px;
border:1px solid red;
text-align:center;
}
div img{
height:500px;
width:200px;
}

Create scrollable content for a fixed 100% height div

I would like to create a scrollable div. I know here is lots of example, but neither of them works for me.
I have a .page class, which fills my mobile's screen. Inside of it I have a .content div. This is contain the content of the pages. It is just align the content from the top, and it should have to scroll the content if it is going out of the .content's boundaries.
.page{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
min-height: 100%;
width: 100%;
display: block;
}
.content{
padding: 4em 0 0 0;
overflow-x: hidden;
overlofw-y: auto;
/*-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;*/
}
What should I do to get it working?
Update
I tried it in fiddle, and it is worked. But not on my phone. Because of it I don't know where should be the problem.
Because of it I attached my whole code to the question. This is very important for me to get it working.
Please help me. Thanks for any help. :)
Is this what you need??
html, body{
height:100%;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
.page{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
height: 100%;
width: 50%;
display: block; border:solid #000 1px
}
.content{
padding:0;
overflow: scroll; overflow-x:hidden;
height:100%
/*-webkit-overflow-scrolling: touch;*/
}
span{
padding:4em 0 0 0;
display:inline-block
}
DEMO
Use span tag to specify the padding for content div coz if you give padding to the content div it calculates as additional height 100%+4em so..
And make sure that you are specifying html and body height as 100% whenever you want to use height:100% in your page.
You need to get window height for that and need to set it for .page. Anyway, you may need to add some javascript for that. I used jQuery for solution. [you can use other library, its up to you. I am suggesting you this solution]
Here is markup:
<div class="page">
<div class="content">
</div>
</div>
CSS:
* { margin:0; padding:0 } /* using * for demo _ you should use proper reset */
html, body { height:100%; height:100% }
body { height:5000px; background-color:#F7F7F7; font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:12px; line-height:1.6em }
.page { background:#A2A2A2; width:200px; height:600px; overflow-y:scroll; position:fixed }
.content { background-color:#4D4D4D; padding:10px; color:#B7B7B7; }
JS:
$('document').ready(function(){
var wHeight = $(window).height();
$('.page').css({
'height' : wHeight + 'px'
});
});
Just see this fiddle link - (live demo) - http://jsfiddle.net/LZT7B/

Centring the whole web page (on a really wide site)?

I have a web page that is wide (3078px) and pretty long too (1540px).
The page has a large div containing 6 divs inside it on 3 columns and two rows (each row a separate div itself).
When the page loads, it displays the top left div (box1) in the top right corner, with the option to scroll down or right to see the rest of the content.
I'd like to make it be centered on load, that is to say, I would like the middle column (box 2) to show in the middle of the page when loading, with the option to scroll left and right for the rest of the content.
Is there any script or CSS/HTML combo that would allow me to select what will be displayed in the browser on load? Essentially, what I'm trying to do is similar to centring the whole of the body within the browser window. I was considering attaching an anchor with a name to the middle div (box2), but I still wouldn't know the Javascript to make it select that div as the top left to load on.
Please let me know if this is a bit confusing, I can make a sketch to explain what I mean if that could help! (The jsfiddle link is below)
HERE IS THE CSS:
body {
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
text-align: center;
background:black;
}
#box1, #box2, #box3, #box4, #box5, #box6 {
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
float:left;
display:inline-block;
width:1024px;
height:768px;
background:transparent;
border:1px red solid;
}
#above {
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
float:left;
display:inline-block;
width:3078px;
height:770px;
background:transparent;
}
#below {
margin:0px;
padding:0px;
float:left;
display:inline-block;
width:3078px;
height:770px;
background:transparent;
}
#mainbox {
margin: 0 auto;
padding:0px;
float:left;
display:inline-block;
width:3078px;
height:1540px;
background:transparent;
}
AND THE HTML:
<div id="mainbox">
<div id="above">
<div id="box1"></div>
<div id="box2"></div>
<div id="box3"></div>
</div>
<div id="below">
<div id="box4"></div>
<div id="box5"></div>
<div id="box6"></div>
</div>
</div>
There is a JS fiddle too: http://jsfiddle.net/KyMet/
A similar question would be (to remove the pain of horizontal scrolling) – If I have a really long page, which scrolls vertically, how can I get it so that it loads with the bottom of the page in the browser window, so that, practically, you need to scroll up to see the rest of the content?
You need to use some query to pull this of.
EDIT
DEMO
$(function(){
//total width of your wrapper
var totalWidth = $('#mainbox').outerWidth(true);
//width of the user browser
var width = window.innerWidth;
//calculate the middle
var middle = (totalWidth - width) / 2
window.scrollTo( middle, 0 );
});
YOUR CSS
I would also recommend you to clean up your css, there is a lot of unnecessary properties there. You can choose to use this
body {
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0;
text-align: center;
background: #222;
overflow: scroll;
}
#box1, #box2, #box3, #box4, #box5, #box6 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
float: left;
display: block;
width: 1024px;
height: 768px;
border: 1px red solid;
}
#box2 {
background-color: aqua; /* only for demo */
}
#above {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
display: block;
}
#below {
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
display: block;
}
#mainbox {
padding: 0;
width: 3078px;
height: 770px;
}
/* For modern browsers */
.clearfix:before,
.clearfix:after {
content:"";
display:table;
}
.clearfix:after {
clear:both;
}
/* For IE 6/7 (trigger hasLayout) */
.clearfix {
*zoom:1;
}
You would have to use jQuery scrollto library

Javascript and overlaying an image on a div

I have my code setup to overlay this div on an image when hovering, but then if the image is too big, i use a function to scale the image down and to scale down everything else according, but then the overlay image is moved all the way to left how can i scale it and not have it move?
my css code and the javascipt just changes the width and height
#exif_data{
position:absolute;
z-index:2;
color:white;
background-color: black;
text-align: center;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
opacity:0.6;
filter:alpha(opacity=60);
}
#image{
border: none;
z-index:1;
}
#content{
position:relative;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
margin-top: 5.7%;
text-align: center;
}
My recommendation would be to try placing the exif_data div explicitly by setting the css properties for top and left. For example, given this DOM:
<div id="content">
<img id="image" src="image.jpg" height="500" width="500" />
<div class="exif_data">some data</div>
</div>
And this css:
#exif_data { position: absolute; }
You could get the "some data" blob to be on top of the image and at the spot you expect with javascript like so:
var exif = document.getElementById('exif_data');
// you could center this easily with a little math, or set it explicitly:
exif.style.top = '100px';
exif.style.left = '100px';
I had to javascript the whole css back out so it would line up again
