I think this question is related to Link not working inside floated div but I still can't figure it out.
I have a div as follows:
.fullwidthimage {
width: 100%;
position: relative;
z-index: -1;
}
.imageoverlay {
left: 0;
text-align: center;
position: absolute;
z-index: 1;
top: 15px;
width: 100%;
}
#homepagebutton {
position: absolute;
text-align: center;
z-index: 100;
bottom: 50px;
width: 200px;
height: 60px;
left: 50%;
margin-left: -100px;
font-size: 25px;
border: 1px solid black;
border-radius: 5px;
background-color: orange;
color: black;
text-decoration: none;
}
<div class="fullwidthimage">
<img class="noround imageundertext smallimg" src="http://placehold.it/600x800">
<img class="noround imageundertext midimg" src="http://placehold.it/1000x1000">
<img class="noround imageundertext bigimg" src="http://placehold.it/3200x1300">
<img class="noround imageundertext xlimg" src="http://placehold.it/5000x1500">
<h1 class="imageoverlay">Title Here</h1>
Get Started
</div>
The different images are using a CSS media query to display/hide at different sizes. The whole thing is a full width image with a text title and 'button' (that's actually just a link styled to look like a button) over the top of the image.
Whatever links I put inside that div won't work - the text shows on the page, but nothing happens if you mouse over.
Why?!
Links placed immediately outside of the div on the same page work just fine, so I don't think it's anything to do with other containing divs there.
I'm assuming from that previous question asked that it's something to do with the positioning, but I can't make it work.
Thanks!
If you give a -1 in z-index, it goes behind body. So the whole div.fullwidthimage becomes unclickable or unaccessible. So, give z-index: 1 as the starting point.
.fullwidthimage {
width: 100%;
position: relative;
z-index: 1; /* Change this! */
}
.imageoverlay {
left: 0;
text-align: center;
position: absolute;
z-index: 2; /* Increase this! */
top: 15px;
width: 100%;
}

I'm having a hard time getting right stacking order. Is there a physical way to render this right (.above-mask being, well, above mask, while .below-mask stays below) without changing html?
EDIT: Removing z-index on .below-mask is, unfortunately, also impossible.
HTML:
<div class="mask"></div>
<div class="below-mask">
<div class="above-mask"></div>
</div>
CSS:
.mask{
position: absolute;
width: 100%; height: 100%;
top: 0; left: 0;
background: rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
z-index: 10;
}
.below-mask{
position: absolute;
width: 15em;
height: 15em;
background: blue;
z-index: 1;
}
.above-mask{
position: absolute;
width: 10em; height: 10em;
top: 2.5em; left: 2.5em;
background: yellow;
z-index: 100;
}
codepen: http://codepen.io/anon/pen/WrXbaL
EDIT: How it looks now - I'm making a first-steps view. I wanted elements that need to be explained to be above the mask (here it would be the search panel), while everything else stays neatly hidden below.
Okay, I'm stupid. I don't need a mask, I can just use eiter a huge box shadow or an outline:
outline: 1000em solid rgba(0,0,0,0.3);
It does the trick.

I am trying to create a relative-positioned element with overflow:hidden that contains a few fixed-position elements. The goal is to have the fixed child elements become hidden as the parent element moves, sort of like if they were part of a background-image with attachment:fixed on the parent element.
By all accounts on StackOverflow and elsewhere on the web, this is not possible, because a fixed element only regards the browser window and ignores its parent element. However, for whatever reason it actually works as intended in Chrome only: http://jsfiddle.net/x6avvhuf/
Here's what the fiddle looks like, view it in Chrome vs. IE/Firefox to see the difference:
HTML
<body>
<div id = "headwrapper">
I am the relative parent element
<div class = "fixedchild">
I am a fixed child element
</div>
</div>
<div id = "content">
This is the main content portion of the page<br>
<!-- Repeat until the page scrolls -->
This is the main content portion of the page<br>
</div>
CSS
body {
background-color: yellow;
}
#headwrapper {
position: relative;
height: 300px;
width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
z-index: -1;
background-color: black;
color: white;
text-align: center;
}
.fixedchild {
position: fixed;
width: 75%;
height: 40px;
z-index: 48;
top: 22.5%;
left: 50%;
margin: 0 0 0 -37.5%;
text-align: center;
color: red;
background-color: pink;
}
What is an alternative solution for this? I have read that it is possible to make an absolute element behave like a fixed element with CSS, but I have been unable to make this work so far. Thanks in advance for any help or advice! :)
UPDATE
Sometimes the best solutions are the most simple. Given the code you posted all you would have to do is set a background-color on #content (ex: yellow in this instance to match the body) since your fixed element has z-index: -1 and will sit behind it anyways:
#content{
background: yellow;
width: 100%;
}
CSS EXAMPLE 1
OR
You could set #content to position:relative which would allow you to order this and your fixed div with z-index (this is probably better, using z-index: -1 is kind of a hack):
CSS
.fixedchild {
position: fixed;
width: 75%;
height: 40px;
z-index: 1; //set to 1
top: 22.5%;
left: 50%;
margin: 0 0 0 -37.5%;
text-align: center;
color: red;
background-color: pink;
}
#content{
background: yellow;
width: 100%;
position: relative; //add
z-index: 2; //set higher
}
CSS EXAMPLE 2
(previous answer):
DISCLAMIER: This is not a CSS solution.
There may be a CSS solution for this. I don't happen to know one off the top of my head, but I do know this can be done pretty easily with Jquery
JS
$(window).scroll(function(){
var scrolled = $(this).scrollTop()+100; //offset starting position which I hard coded to top: 100px - you can change as needed
$(".fixedchild").css({"top": scrolled+"px"});
});
CSS
.fixedchild {
position: absolute;
width: 75%;
height: 40px;
z-index: 48;
top: 100px;
left: 50%;
margin: 0 0 0 -37.5%;
text-align: center;
color: red;
background-color: pink;
}
JS EXAMPLE
I had this effect working on a Shopify site I designed about a year ago (http://originalchuck.com/), and then tonight, unbeknownst to me, the client decides to buy a new theme, turn it on and now one of my CSS tricks no longer works. If you go to the three images beneath the two blog posts, you'll see the problem. Roll over them, and the image opacity changes. That's the good news. The bad? Some text in a span is also supposed to appear in the dead center of each image, but now it no longer does. My code is the same as the previous theme, so why isn't it working anymore? Here's my CSS:
span.text-content, span.text-content-bags {
color: #ffffff;
font-size: 30px;
left: 0px;
opacity: 0;
position: absolute;
text-transform: uppercase;
top: 0px;
width: 100%;
}
span.text-content span, div.homepage-bags span.text-content-bags span {
left: 0px;
margin-top: -12px;
position: relative;
text-align: center;
top: 50%;
width: 100%;
}
.homepage-products a:hover span.text-content, .homepage-bags a:hover span.text-content-bags {
opacity: 1;
display: inline-block;
}
Here's a cool trick to center stuff inside a container:
set position: relative on the outer, containing element, and then on the element you want centered, do this:
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin: auto;
display: block;
text-align: center;
You also need to set a height and width for the inner element. The units shouldn't matter.
Works in all browsers including at least IE8+. It may even go further back than that.
I'm trying to make a background image be outside a div and can't figure out how to do this (if even it's possible). My HTML:
<div id="test"></div>
My CSS:
#test {
width: 50px;
height:50px;
background: 0 50px url('https://developers.google.com/_static/images/developers-logo.svg') blue;
}
A stand-alone demo:
http://jsfiddle.net/568Zy/
The demo shows the image within the 50x50 div. What I was hoping for was to have the background image start at 0px from the top and 50px from the left.
Any ideas?
Your question does not make it clear exactly what you want the end result to look like.
It is not possible to make a background image 'overflow' it's element, however you can apply the background image to a pseudo element and make that whatever size you want and position it wherever you want.
I have used this technique on your example: http://jsfiddle.net/ybw750jd/
#test {
background: blue;
height:50px;
position: relative;
width: 50px;
}
#test:before {
background: url("https://picsum.photos/450/100") repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
content: " ";
display: block;
height: 100px;
position: absolute;
width: 450px;
z-index: -1;
}
If this is not the effect you want, please rephrase your question and consider making a mock up image showing what you want it to look like.
Try this: http://jsfiddle.net/568Zy/16/. Essentially, you're creating two <div> elements, and set one to be absolute with a z-index: 0; on one and z-index: 1; on the other.
<div id="test">zzz</div>
<div class="z-index"></div>
#test {
background: blue;
width: 50px;
height:50px;
position: relative;
z-index: 1;
}
.z-index {
position: absolute;
background: url('https://developers.google.com/_static/images/developers-logo.svg');
z-index: 0;
width: 300px;
height: 100px;
top: 0px;
left: 50px;
}
Ok I am running into a little problem positioning an image inside a DIV.
<div id="wholePage">
<img src="theImages/header_shadow_flip.png" id="hF" />
<div id="pageWrapper"><img src="theImages/header_shadow.png" id="bF" />
</div>
</div>
I have the following CSS for both DIVs
#wholePage {
position: relative;
width: 1000px;
padding: 0 10px;
padding-top: 35px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#pageWrapper {
position: relative;
width: 960px;
padding: 0 10px;
padding-top: 37px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
The CSS for the top shadow, which works just fine. no need to change, is:
img#hF {
position: absolute;
left: 50px;
top: 56px;
z-index:2;
}
But the bottom footer image is giving me issue and the css is:
img#bF {
position: absolute;
left: 50px;
top: 1657px;
z-index:2;
}
Two examples of the page is below:
www.interfaithmedical.com/CheckSite/index.html
www.interfaithmedical.com/CheckSite/ms_gynecology.html
How do I align the bottom shadow image to match the pageWrapper DIV so it is positioned right below it? and doesn't position based on the page itself like it did on the second link. (On the second link, you can see it uses the original spacing and extends beyond page content)
Instead of setting the top: property of bF, try setting the bottom: property of bF to -4px. That way you aren't tied to your page being 1657px tall every time.
img#bF {
left: 50px;
position: absolute;
bottom: -4px;
z-index: 2;
}
