When I apply a linear gradient to the body in CSS like below
body
{
background: linear-gradient(#10416b, black);
}
It doesn't apply it to the entire web page, instead what happens is it is applied to the first half of the page, and then starts over from blue to black for the second half, (#10416b is a blue color). Adding in height:100%; to the body doesn't change anything.
I fixed the problem by doing the below in CSS
.background {
background: linear-gradient(#10416b, black);
height: 100%;
}
and this in HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html class="background">
// lots of unrelated code in between the tags
</html>
But I still don't understand why setting the background with the linear gradient in the body didn't work. If somebody could explain this to me that would be great.
Use 100vh instead of 100%
body {
height: 100vh;
background: linear-gradient(#10416b, black);
}
https://jsfiddle.net/r77r0cco/1/
body in and of itself doesn't have a height, so it looks to its parent element <html> which, because it has no content, also has no height.
vh uses the viewport dimensions instead of a parent element's
The body has no height of it's own as such without the HTML having a height or the body containing content.Then the gradient will repeat because repeat is the default in the background shorthand property.
html {
height: 100%;
}
body {
background: linear-gradient(#10416b, black);
}
Firstly, I'd like to thank #Paulie_D who inspired me to come up with this answer.
Below you can see 2 methods to get your body have a gradient background.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>My awesome webpage</title>
<style>
html {
min-height: 100%; /* Unlike 'height', which is used by
#Paulie_D, this will make your webpage
automatically resize when it exceeds
the 100% height, thus it won't start the
gradient over
*/
}
body {
background: linear-gradient( 180deg,
#C0C0AA 0%,
#1CEFFF 100%
);
}
/***** Content design *****/
#hello {
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 5em;
text-align: center;
color: #424242;
text-shadow: 0 0 1rem darkgray;
transition: 0.25s;
}
#hello:hover {
font-size: 100vh;
color: darkgray;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="hello">Hover and scroll!</div>
</body>
</html>
This method will automatically resize the gradient to fit the whole content.
If you want the gradient to be the size of the window height, you can use a `::before` pseudoelement on `body`, to draw a fix-positioned gradient with a `z-index` of `-1`. Like this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>My awesome webpage</title>
<style>
body::before {
content: "";
background: linear-gradient( 180deg,
#C0C0AA 0%,
#1CEFFF 100%
);
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
position: fixed;
z-index: -1;
}
/***** Content design *****/
#hello {
font-family: sans-serif;
font-size: 5em;
text-align: center;
color: #424242;
text-shadow: 0 0 1rem darkgray;
transition: 0.25s;
}
#hello:hover {
font-size: 100vh;
color: darkgray;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="hello">
Hover and scroll!
</div>
</body>
</html>

I made a simple logo and when I tried to effect its border radius to make it a circle, however a problem occurred. It's edges became malformed where it didn't form a perfect circle and box shadows began to appear on the bottom and sides despite the fact I didn't implement them. If anyone could help me find a work around I would appreciate it.
Also I didn't include the CSS reset, so the positioning might be a bit off.

This is because you are using a .png file with transparent borders. Remove the transparent edges and you will have a perfect circle
So I was able to solve the issue, for some reason the Lunacy editor automatically adds a transparent border to an image by default. I had to crop it with a built in VS Code Image editor to fix it.
I just switched from VSC to Adobe Dreamweaver and i don't know if I should keep it or not; but that's besides the point.
When I try to add a background to some text, it fills the whole screen with the background with the background, and if I try to change the width it only adds on to the background which is filling the whole screen.
I don't know if it's user error, something changed in HTML/CSS overnight or if it's because of the Dreamweaver display box thing on the top of my screen

p.s: let me know if you need a ss of the results I get.
Instead of using the class, you can change the texts background color by adding
background-color: rgb(255, 236, 139)
in the h1 tag
Demo:
YOURTEXT
It should work as expected if you apply the css to the H1 tag:
.Container h1{}
You have used padding property incorrectly. Reference
Correct syntax: padding: top right bottom left
padding:0 50% 0 50%;
So the css should be:
.Container{ margin: 0; }
.Container h1{
padding:0 50% 0 50%;
font-family: comfortaa;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: 600;
color: white;
background: #00C3FF;
}
I am looking for a way to put the background colour of my website as this colour without having to use a full sized image.

You can use linear-gradient()
The title of your image says
Wallpaper orange pink gradient linear #ff69b4 #d8b04d 30°
which is all indication you need. You can write it like so in CSS
.background {
width: 100vw;
height: 100vh;
background: linear-gradient(30deg, #d8b04d, #ff69b4);
}
<div class="background"></div>
I am attempting to re-create something similar to this image below, minus the little page curl in top right hand corner.
Banner Example:
I am adding the code to a previously coded website by another designer. I am first coding it separately, but cannot get the text and banner to be responsive, though the image is. Nor can I get it to overlay like I wish on the image itself.
Here is my code below, I know it is something simple but seem to be hitting a mental wall.

I didn't want to type out all your code so here is an example.
Note: When I posted this one, no codes were up, I left it up in case it helps others. The code for the answer is at the bottom of the answer.
https://jsfiddle.net/norcaljohnny/5o95L0qy/
.box {
background: grey;
height: auto;
width: 100%;
}
.text {
font-size: 6vw
}
Updated: Here is the current JsFiddle. Hope this helps.

I am trying to place a solid color banner that stretches across the top of the screen like on this website, facebook, and others. For some reason I am encountering difficulties doing this
I created a div tag in my HTML file for the banner and tried to apply CSS to the div tag but nothing is working.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<style>
#banner {
background-color: #333FF;
font-family: Arial;
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
padding:15px;
height:800px;
background-size:100%;
}
</style>
<title>Random Password Generator</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id="banner"><h1>fdsfdsfdsfds</h1></div>
</body>
</html>
I also tried linking to an external CSS file but that isn't working either.
How can I make a simple, solid color banner at the top of the page, on every page?
#333FF is an incorrect color. It should be like this: #333FFF. See the W3C Specification for more info on the length of hex codes (hint: they need to be six characters long).
Working example : http://jsfiddle.net/ntim/SKnxP/
position:absolute; also doesn't seem necessary in your case.
You don't actually need to use position absolute unless you want it to be over the top of anything. Instead, you can just use the following:
<style>
#banner {
background-color: #333FFF;
font-family: Arial;
padding:15px;
height:800px;
background-size:100% 100%;
}
</style>
here is something based on a template I use:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Title</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="CSS-STYLE-SHEET.css">
<style type="text/css">
body
{
background-color: #E7E7E7;
text-align: center;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica;
font-size: 15px;
color: #000000;
border-spacing: 0;
border-collapse:collapse;
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
#Banner {
background-color: #333FFF;
top: 0; /* Probably not necessary... */
height: 40px;
width: 100%; /* Also probably not necessary */
}
#ContentMain
{
background-color: #FFFFFF;
height: 100%;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="ContentMain">
<div id="Banner">Banner goes here</div>
Content goes here
</div>
</body>
</html>
should work.. the grey bit at the back is because the html and body tags dont fill the entire screen - something like this should fix it (I would use min-height), but I have not included it here as then if you want a page taller than the browser window and works in Internet Explorer things get annoying...
