I’m currently trying to wrap my head around solving this layout with Ionic and CSS:
This is the result I achieve even after spending quite some time with it:
I've recreated the basic setup on the home page: here
The layout consists of a navbar, a fullscreen image and text-content below that. The gradient is constructed using a ::after attribute in CSS as I don't want to hard embedd the gradient in the image file with Photoshop and the likes. I had to construct the fullscreen image using a ‚position:absolute‘ attribute:
.happening-image {
top: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
position:absolute; }
because for reasons beyond my knowledge, not using ‚position:absolute’ results in the image not being displayed in fullscreen but being 2 or 3 pixels smaller than the total width and thus leaving a slim border of background color around the image:
Once I do use the ‚position:absolute’ attribute however my layout becomes a complete mess because the text content is being placed all over the image content.
This is where I'm struggling to come up with a solution that tidly places the text content below the fullscreen image. Using padding is, to my understanding, not possible as quick fix as I need the layout to be independent from the image content:
if I use padding based on the height of portrait sized images, the content gets too much offset when for landscape sized images and vice versa. I could try to target landscape and portrait images using different .css classes for each and setting and matching padding, I do however feel that using padding is not the best solution.
Can someone point me to my error or a robust, content-independent solution here that keeps Image and text content tidly in order while maintaining the layout?
According to your example, the border around the image is happening because of the padding attribute in the ion-content tag, here:
If you remove that padding the image will have no space around.
By the way, the position:absolute; did the trick, because it makes the image get out of the page flow, and so, it acted as a child of the body, which doesn't have any padding/margin around.
Edited
Also, you need to remove the position:absolute from your image and add padding:0; to the tag above it, as it is adding a little space around from padding.
And from what I understood, the image and text will behave as you wished.

I am trying to create a virtual gallery that dynamically generates an image (or set of images) based on what artwork is being shown and how large it is. I am having trouble keeping the image positions absolute when scaling the image size in my browser. That is, the images will scale unevenly when the browser display height changes. See the CodePen below for what I mean.
Does anyone have suggestions as to how to fix this? I noticed that Fine Art Multiple (click the link, then the View in Room button) seems to auto-generate their image using either a custom function or a 3rd party program. Does anyone know how I could viably do this, if what I want isn't possible in CSS?
Fine Art Multiple`s virtual gallery:

FAM's example gallery works because it's not as responsive as yours. As you noted, it's a generated image that is positioned in the center.
Instead of using percentages I set some fixed widths for you and also moved the room image into a background property instead of having it as an additional img element.
I also made sure the person's silhouette disappears on small screens by shifting to the left and off-screen just like in the example.
Most of this positioning is reliant on a left margin combined with transform:
margin-left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%,0);
This technique can be used to perfectly center and offset any element.

I have a fixed image placed using this code:
The problem is that in bigger screens the image is placed in the middle of the screen instead of in the left bottom corner (it works fine in 15" screen)
How do I fix this using inline-css style= (attribute) code in HTML?
Okay, you say no CSS but you have inline CSS in your code.
Second, why are you using position: fixed with right: 865px?
The reason the image appears in the middle on larger screens is that you're specifying a direct pixel value. You'll want to either change
right: 865px;
to
left: 0;
Or change the link to float left instead, such as:
float: left;
Either way, why are you putting CSS inline? It is not the recommended or correct usage of CSS. CSS is designed to separate content from styling, so putting it inline defeats the purpose.
If you want it on the left corner of the screen you should be using left:0 instead of right:865px
If you provide a jsfiddle I can help you more.
Edit:
About mobile sites like you asked me, most mobile browser doesn't support it pretty well so we use JavaScript to do the job, here is a bunch of examples and much more info http://bradfrostweb.com/blog/mobile/fixed-position/

I'm trying to create my first responsive website. For this, I'm including an image. This image has a caption which should be displayed in a transparent overlay. However because opacity settings are passed to child elements, I have removed the text from the container.
I cant get the overlay to display, at all (because it has no content inside it). I cant really add a fixed height as I want to image to respond to changes in browser size. How can I ensure this is displayed?
Thank you,
J
Edit, also what would the best way to scale the overlay as the browser resizes. I'm unsure if this approach is even possible.
First of all, you can use an RGBA background ( background: rgba(0,0,0,.5); ) instead of using opacity.
Secondly, you need explicitly set a width for your span.figcaption (you can also do that by specifying both left and right offset properties)
Perhaps this demo http://dabblet.com/gist/2778608 might also help you (image can be of any size - resize the browser window to see how everything resizes).
Adding the following rules to your existing sample effectively stretches the .figcaption elements to fully cover the .figure, fiddle:
.figure {position:relative;}
/*these could be different so that the overlay appears larger than the caption*/
span.figcaption {position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0;}
p.figcaption {position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0;}
You can arbitrarily adjust the values to a % setting so that the caption appears centered etc.
BTW, you know that your implementation is not yet liquid, right?
As the title states,
I am currently building a website, I am new to this and am trying to learn quickly. However this problem is quite frustrating as websites I have gone to do not help.
So at the moment I have an image that is of a high enough resolution that it should fill the screen easily. However when I load the HTML the image is zoomed in on the top right corner which is the only part visible. I have tried using "height" and "width" commands. I have also tried without them. I have attempted to use a <div> and <body>. However this problem still persists.
Another point is that when I use a <div> the whole screen is not filled, it still has a white border around what I believe is the <div>.
If you need to support older browsers, it's not as simple as just adding one or two properties.

You need this CSS to remove the default margin on body:
html, body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
OK, I would suggest you to make the width and height not in px but in % and secondly try setting the image using CSS

I am working on my portfolio and I am having an issue with the project description shifting the images on the left downward when the browser resize. A picture of the issue here: click here When you resize the browser the text will shift over and move the images down. I've tried setting min-width but that doesn't help the text nor the image div to make sure it doesn't resize at a certain point.
Here is a sample link to the page itself: [click here][2]
I tried adding min-widths to a image element but that doesn't work either. I do not want to use absolute position as it will overlap on top on resize. Any thoughts or suggestions?
You have an image that is 1052px wide, which is in a UL element that has a margin-left of 1.5em. Your description box is 350px. Basically your #imagewrapper div needs to be equal to or wider than all of these elements.
Right now that's about 1422px. It will change if the effective font size for your UL.imagewrap-pad changes.
That's a pretty wide web site. You probably should make it a bit narrower if you're making it for general viewing, especially with all the tablets etc out there now.
Anyway, the code you want is
#imagewrapper
{
width:1422px;
margin:0 auto;
}
The second line makes it center on the screen.
P.S - get Firebug for Firefox, or use similar tools in chrome. They let you endlessly experiment with styles to find out what works for you.
To solve the problem just set the "width" property in #imagewrapper :
#imagewrapper {
width: 1430px;
}
Have You tried setting up width attr on the parent element to around 1800px?
div#imagewrapper {
width:1800px;
}
It will put a scroll bar at the bottom of Your browser, but if You want to put such a big image beside that text then You do need a lot of space. Just keep in mind that it won't fit in users monitors.
To make it look nice I guess You should apply that attribute to the body tag.
