Kind of a conundrum. I have a div that is full height of browser with a background set as 100% size, and image content, in two inline divs set to vertical-align middle content with each other.
One of the divs, the image is "bigger" than the view port (this is needed unfortunately), so I have overflow: hidden set to the containing div of these two inner divs to hide whatever is outside the viewport (height 100%)
I know its sound weird to explain, so I set up a CodePen
https://codepen.io/deelite310/pen/bjvKPG
The issue I'm running into are several:
1) The right div content since the image is bigger than the div full height, its causing the left div content to "vertical align" with that full height, instead of the containing DIV's 100% height. That means the left div content is disappearing in the overflow: hidden;
2) When resizing the browser up and down (so say a view port of 1680x600), the content in the main section is covered up by the footer area (so the images disappear or are being covered up, the background isn't resizing down, etc)
so my questions are:
1) Resize divs and content if browser is not a normal viewport settings (like 1680x600) so that the main section shows fully, without the footer covering it up
2) Where both divs in the main section, show all the content, despite one side having content extending past the and hidden by overflow: hidden;
some of my CSS, you can see the whole thing at the CodePen link above
section {
width: 100%;
min-height: 100%;
display: table;
height: inherit;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: url("https://placeimg.com/1000/400/tech/sepia") no-repeat center top;
background-size: 100%;
}
#hero #col {display: inline-block; width: 50%; verticle-align: middle;}
#hero #col:nth-child(1) img {width: 65%; height: auto;}
.place {margin-bottom: 20%;}
#footer {width: 100%; height: 400px; text-align: center; border-top: 1px solid #000}
#footer p {font-weight: bold; font-size: 32px; margin-top: 3%;}
To solve your first issue I would try, instead of a vertical-align, to add a float to your hero and col id. By the way, as your using the id col twice it would maybe be appropriate to use a class instead.
If using the float, you would have to add a clear to your footer probably but it should work. And, with the float, reduce a bit the width (48 or 49% instead of 50%) should help because, by adding borders you end up with more than 50% in width which can explain why the second block goes under the first one.
For the background-resizing you can still use a background-size:100% 100% however; be aware that your image can, with that method, appears weirdly, it'll end up distorted in some cases.
For your images size, I don't really understand why you go through a nth-child use. but, anyway, you can use overflow:auto instead of overflow:hidden which will allow a roll box to appear, meaning that your content won't simply disappear has it does with the hidden attribute.
It's the first time I ever answer to someone here. Hope it'll help...

I have a wrapper div with some content in it. Here is its css:
.wrapper{
width: 85%;
min-width: 970px;
max-width: 1500px;
margin: auto;
padding: 0.3%;
}
Now, within this div, I have another div, which I will call div2. It has no relevant styles to it, aside from cosmetic ones (background, font-color, etc.). Its behaviour is to simply take up the entire width of the wrapper div, no matter what the browser's width, zoom, or screen size is. This is as expected, and nothing is wrong here. I'm trying to make an addition onto this, and that is where I'm having trouble.
I have an image that I want to display, such that the bottom of the image is in line and touching the top of div2, and on the right side end of div2, so that the right end of the image is also in line with the right end of div2.
This would sound simple enough to do, but I don't want this image to mess with the vertical space. Adding the image in will of course introduce a larger gap between div2, and any element above it, which means I have to use position:absolute to take the image out of the regular flow of the page. However, my attempts at keeping the image at this same position, in line as described, have been unsuccessful. How can I keep this image aligned at all times, and under all possible user display circumstances, without having this large gap?
I've tried using the offset CSS top and left to move the image, but it doesn't work for all screens/zooms/resolutions/browser widths, and this isn't something I can practically use media queries for.
I'm not quite sure if I got you right, but I guess you need to:
#div2
{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
overflow: visible;
}
#div2 img
{
position: absolute;
bottom: 100%;
right: 0;
}
EDIT: Place your image inside of #div2.
So, your image, will always be on the right top of #div2. That's what you wanted to do?
I'm a complete beginner. I tried my best to search for a solution, but part of the problem is that I don't even know what the technical term is for the thing I'm trying to do.
Essentially I want to have a tiled background repeating everywhere, but then also have a white rectangle that extends from the top of the page to the bottom, occupying roughly 50% of the horizontal screen space. How would I go about accomplishing this?
If I get it correctly, you might just want a repeated background of the page and then absolutely-positioned <div> with white background.
This is pretty basic stuff, I suggest you take a beginner's course in HTML and CSS before going too much further.
body {background: url(tile.png) left top repeat;}
content {background-color: #fff; margin: 0px auto; width: 50%;}
I hope this is what you wanted. It is a tiled, repeating background with a white strip, half the screen space, going down the middle. If you want a tiled background, you don't need to define anything in CSS, and CSS will do it for you, but I'm not sure with the browser compatibility so it might be safer to explicitly define repeat:.
First of all, to those complaining that height: 100% does not work, note that the div with height: 100% is only being the height: 100% of its parent element (the container that encloses the div, in the case of this JSFiddle, the #container). Therefore, if its parent has no content, the div with 100% height will become invisible.
Therefore, the html, body and container must all have height: 100% for the white strip to have 100% height here in this JSFiddle:
JSFiddle
After this you are free to add any content to the white strip, which will probably be your webpage! :D
Note: Here I have defined the strip as width: 50%; but sometimes it may be better to explicitly define the width (width: 1200px;) so that you can avoid problems with the text and divs going haywire when you zoom in, zoom out, etc.
Edit:
Also, since the height of the container increases as you add more content, such as divs, the problem with the white strip not reaching the bottom of the page is that you simply have nothing that fills it up. As you add more content the strip will naturally grow to fill the page. Good luck!
Solution 1
Here's a solution that uses only the background CSS property applied to document body, no extra elements needed. It's documented so you can understand whats going on.
body
{
/*
* This specifies two background images, separated by comma
* First parameter is just a white pixel
* For the second use any background pattern of your choice
*/
background-image:url("http://i.imgur.com/qdx0kzd.png"),
url("http://subtlepatterns.com/patterns/tasky_pattern.png");
/*Center background images, self-explanatory*/
background-position: center;
/*Repeat white background image on Y-axis (vertical) only*/
background-repeat: repeat-y, repeat;
/*Make white background size 50%. Adjust as needed*/
background-size: 50%, auto;
}
You can see an example in this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/dV2zZ/6/
Solution 2
This solution applies different backgrounds to different elements: the pattern to the document body, and the white background to a content container. Code is also documented for better understanding.
HTML
<div id="content">Content</div>
CSS
html, body
{
margin: 0;
/* Make document size extend to the bottom of the page */
height: 100%;
}
body
{
/*Patern background. Use a pattern of your choice*/
background-image: url("http://subtlepatterns.com/patterns/tasky_pattern.png");
}
#content
{
/*Make container background white*/
background-color: #FFFFFF;
/*Center container*/
margin: 0 auto;
/*Size 50%, adjust as needed*/
width: 50%;
/*Extend to the bottom*/
height: 100%;
}
See an example fiddle here: http://jsfiddle.net/jDRG3/1/
Im trying to markup a picture to show on the bottom right corner of the webpage.
If i set the overall width of the page to 100%
and i set the picture to float right at the bottom it makes the trick perfectly but above
the mentioned picture is a bigger width picture which is around 1600px so when you open the the page in the small window browser then the floated picture is aligned but the scrollbar apears and scrolls to the full width of the page without the floated picture..
body{width:100%;}
thepicture{width: 1289px;
height: 446px;
position:relative;
float:right;}
So the second aproach: to make the body or a wrapper div fix width that is bigger than the upper picture mentioned:
body{min-width:1600px;}
Than looks great until somebody has a bigger screen than 1600px... the float ends at 1600px;
The firs solution needs to be tweaked but i cant figure it out how, some responsive floating would be great jquery maybe?
thanks in forwards
The problem is the pearl:)
Updated
May be this work:
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%
min-width: 1648px; /* the width of the longest element */
}
#bottomwrap {
/* replace with your background color */
background: url(path/to/picture) bottom right no-repeat;
width: 100%;
}
Rememer to reset body margin, padding to zero and set body height to 100%
Update:
I have update the solution for your case, modify the HTML structure, you can review here http://jsbin.com/ulatis/1/edit
It sounds like you need to use a background image here. Put the background on a 100% width div and set the background position to right bottom.
div.background{background: url('images/bg.png') no-repeat right bottom; width: 100%}
Try position: fixed; z-index: -1;, it does exactly what you're looking for. Example
I've got this problem, I've placed a div within a div, I've positioned the "title" to be height 50, and then "navbar" below it, so I've put height 100% though the thing is, its not staying within the div, its actually straying away from and out of the div and making a scrollbar appear.
I would love "site" to hog the walls and then all the other div fit in that div.
<div id="site">
<div id="title">TitleBar</div>
<div id="navbar">NavBar</div>
<div id="frame">FrameBar</div>
</div>
body{
margin: 0;
}
#site{
position:absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
*border: 1px solid #333;
}
#title{
border: 1px solid #333;
height: 50;
}
#navbar{
border: 1px solid #c38a8a;
width: 200;
height: 100%;
}
I've found an image that shows something similar.
http://img176.imageshack.us/img176/4637/picture1zb1.png
that's because 100% height actually means "use the same height as the container".
But I didn't quite get all your requirements for this layout, if your navbar is a navigation bar, it should be designed in a way that allows scrollbars to appear when the content is too big.
But I think you're going for the wrong structure to accomplish this, is there any actual reason you want a wrapper div? I've created a fiddle on this, check if this is closer to what you wanted: http://jsfiddle.net/6g6HV/2/
This other one is yours, in case you wanna play with it: http://jsfiddle.net/yq8PS/3/
Edit: Adding the javascript solution to the answer http://jsfiddle.net/6g6HV/9
You can make divisions in HTML appear side by side to each other by adding a float property to the css.
#navbar{
border: 1px solid #c38a8a;
width: 200px;
height: 100%;
float: left;
}
Additionally, always add the 'px' unit after a size. Modern browsers assume you mean px, but older ones might not.
There isn't a good way to prevent the overlapping when you have a sidebar that is a set pixel width. To achieve the liquid width (or fluid width) style, you would have to add negative 200px margin on the left to the #frame (to counter sidebar). Then, add another divsion inside the #frame to do the styling for that portion. This is how I have achieved the look on my web site, and it's also the solution used in the previous default Drupal theme (Garland).
#frame{
margin-left: -200px;
}
IN this context, 100% for the Navbar doesn't mean the remaining height but 100% of the visible heigth of the parent; so if the parent has a height of 400px then Navbar will also have an height of 400px. If you add to this size the height of the title bar, you get a total value greater than the size of the parent; therefore the appearance of the scolling bar.
While there is usually no problem with the width to make it appears to fill the whole length of a screen, it's very difficult in HTML & CSS to do the same with the height as they have not been designed for this sort of thing; especially with an imbricated structure (div inside div).
Some people will use Javascript to get the size of the screen (browser) and compute the size of their objects accordingly but I don't know if you can do the same with a pure HTML/CSS solution; especially if you want to have your solution compatible accross many browsers.
For more info, take a look at http://www.tutwow.com/htmlcss/quick-tip-css-100-height/
I am creating a page that has a background image and the content is within a centered container that runs vertically down the page. Similar to the Yahoo! Answers layout: http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/
If you minimise your browser while on Yahoo! Answers the vertical scrolling just becomes 'longer' and the content all stays on the white container.
However, on mine when I minimise my browser the content towards the bottom of the container overflows and appears on the background image instead. I want the container to expand..
I do not want to use the overflow:auto or any other overflow attributes and I don't like the scroll bars.
Please see below and thank you in advance:
body {
background-image: url('images/ppback.jpg');
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
width:100%;
height:100%;
}
#container {
position: relative;
background: #440077;
width: 770px;
margin:0 auto;
top: 0px;
height: 100%;
opacity: .7;
filter:alpha(opacity=70);
)
Just remove the value height: 100% from #container. This is setting the max height of your container to the same height as the browser window, preventing anything longer than the window from being displayed.
I'm guessing that you added this property so that the entire background will display on the page when there is little page content. To get the effect you're looking for you may have to create a separate div, in a fixed position, and positioned center, with a z index smaller than your main #container.
