Actually I am creating a border around my website in TYPO3 (version 7.6.14). I am creating this whith three border pictures (one for top, one for bottom and one for the left and right side) and it still workes fine at "normal" pages.
Only the border for the left and right side is created by css and the two others in the template. The whole page is surroundet the div "website".
Now I added a "Grid Element" to the main page. This is also in the website div included. Only the border is not shown at the Grid Elements part and non of my tries workes.
My css code is the following one:
div#website {
width:1200px;
text-align:left;
position: relative;
background-image:url(images/border_lr.jpg);
background-repeat:repeat-y;
background-position:left;
}
I know that the pixel methode is not the best way, but it should not be the problem, I even changed this and tryed to resize the other content, but it did not helped. The border is not in the background, it is just not created at the Grid Elements part of the website.
Why not use the :before and :after pseudo-elements?

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 struggling with getting the elements on this page to reflow correctly: http://www.cmattayers.com/moushegianlaw/
I want the semi-transparent box to be flush with the left side of the slider image (the photo of the gavel), and for them to be "fused together." The problem now is that when the window becomes narrower, the semi-transparent callout box drops below the portrait photo, but the slider photo stays where it is. I have tried different combinations of inline and block elements to achieve the desired effect, but nothing seems to change.
I also have a bizarre sliver of space to the left side of the semi-transparent box that I can't seem to get rid of. Adding negative left margins does fix it, but when it drops below, it's off-center and outside of view.
I also need to find a way to add padding to the bottom of the box. When the window is resized to show mobile view, the bottom of the box rests directly on the header text below (I would like there to be padding, but adding padding seems to add it to the text inside the box and not the outside of the box).
In that design, you've done a couple of HTML and CSS things I'd recommend against.
Firstly, your <div id="header"> should be a <header> element. That's more semantic and accessible. If you use multiple headers on the page (which is allowed), you can distinguish this one using role='banner'.
You shouldn't put all those blocks into the header. Rather keep the logo in the header, put the menu in a <nav>, and put the portrait + gavel image + dark paragraph into a <section>.
Next, and to answer your question, perhaps don't use inline and float to position the paragraph. inline and inline-block are great for flowing content, but not great for content you want to always be in one row. Rather give the parts display: table-cell (or use the new 'flexbox' CSS styles).
To get this right, you may need to restructure your HTML a bit.
I'm trying to understand this webpage:
http://www.canadianliving.com/food/slow_cooker_beef_stew.php
It is divided into several sections where each section has a border around it. For example, to the right of the title "Slow-Cooker Beef Stew" is an image "tested till perfect". Immediately to the right of this is a border, which separates it from an advertisement. This border extends down and separates the section from the "Related Content" section below.
But what is making the border? I am using Chrome's Inspect Element, Computed Style, but none of the tags seem to have a border-style. What else can create a border?
(I'm not looking for the best way to make a border; I need to understand how other pages do it.)
EDIT:
Based on people's answers, I tried the html below, which is not working. I don't get how an image in a parent div is repeated in each child div in such a way that it fits exactly along the border.
<div style = "float:left;background-image:url('http://www.canadianliving.com/media/images/background_02.png?201206051535');background-clip:border-box;background-origin:padding-box;background-repeat:repeat-y;" >
<div style = "float:left;width:300px;background-clip:border-box;background-origin:padding-box;padding-left:8px">hello</div>
<div style = "float:left;width:300px;background-clip:border-box;background-origin:padding-box;padding-left:8px">there</div>
</div>
http://www.canadianliving.com/media/images/background_02.png?201206051535
Its an image, not a border, remove the image to get rid of the 'border'.
I deduced this by selecting the container element and reviewing the css background property,
for future reference.
Here an example:
<style>
div#test {
height:800px;
width:800px;
background:url(http://www.canadianliving.com/media/images/background_02.png?201206051535) top right repeat-y #676767;
}
</style>
<div id="test">TestDiv<div>
Keep in mind, this is a rough sketch of what it should look like. I'm not planning on learning you this without some effort. Try w3schools for an html / css tutorial.
I'm betting we all did this kind of research and a lot of trying before trying to submit to these kind of forums.
Happy coding, good luck!

The background is set on the div#right_col where the ads are. They have a padding-left of 8px (width of the shadow background image) and a background set on content-container with url('/media/images/background_02.png') 0 630px repeat-y.
basically, it is a background url that is used as a shadow border. Please look at the CSS of #content_container in firebug/chrome inspect element.
It is not a border but used as a seperator.
I'm making a webpage where I have a div ("container") that is a parent to the div "rounded". For some odd reason, the webpage doesn't let me scroll down even though both of the divs' height are larger than the screen.
Here's a jFiddle with the components that aren't working out: http://jsfiddle.net/pmg92/19/
Any ideas as to why this isn't working?
You need to take the position:fixed off the .container so that it allows the page to be scrollable
EDIT
Check this out here http://jsfiddle.net/pmg92/23/ I think this is what you are looking for. I took out the non relevant css so don't just copy and paste to yours. I eliminated your background rounded image in place of using border-radius because by using a background image you can't really shrink or expand depending on content. This won't work on older browsers unless you use webkits and so on.
If you want to use an image I would suggest slicing the image between a top, bottom, and middle. The top would contain the top section with the radii. The middle would be 1px tall that repeats vertical as needed. The bottom would contain the bottom section with the radii.
The problem is that you have the position of the container fixed.
i'm creating a simple page which have the following look
so as it shows in IE the the top div (the tabs div) is perfectly viewed with the down (body) div but in google chrome the top div (the tabs div) is one or two pixels to the right and i don't know why?
I would recommend boning up on the CSS Box Model for the different browser types.

Your problem is the padding or the border in navigation bar section.
Try adding this in the beginning of your css styles
* {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
