im trying to make a header image for my website that will allow me to display the logo and text that i have already used in my website over it and the image in the background if you will.
the html code is as follows:
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" />
<title> The World Traveller </title>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="main.css">
<div id="wrapper";>
<header>
<h2 class="logo"> logo here </h2>
<h1> The World traveller </h1>
</header>
And the main css file contains this :
body {
background-color:#696969;
margin:0;
padding:0;
font-family:"Arial" san-serif;
}
.logo{
text-indent: -99999px;
background: url("logo2.jpg");
width: 200px;
height:170px;
margin:0;
}
header {
background-image:dodgeblue;
padding:0 0 15px;
background-color:#4682B4;
padding: 40px 0;
text-align: center;
color: white;
}
im not sure what to do and would love some help thank you. :)
if i need to put more of my code on here let me know.
Change your header to this.
<header>
<img src class="logo">
<h1> The World traveller </h1>
</header
and you need to change your logo class to say background-image not just background.
.logo{
text-indent: -99999px;
background-image: url("logo2.jpg");
width: 200px;
height:170px;
margin:0;
}
also you have
header {
background-image:dodgeblue;
padding:0 0 15px;
background-color:#4682B4;
padding: 40px 0;
text-align: center;
color: white;
}
dodgeblue isn't an image I would delete that since you already have a background color.

i have made a simple website using a free template. i am confused because the images on my version are not showing but the images on the demo version are working and both have exactly the same css files and html because i copy pasted. i will post them below. my confusion lies in the fact that i dont see any of the images reffered to in either the html or the css stylesheet. the styling is there for the images but no link to the file location. 2 questions.
this is what the site should look like:
http://www.quackit.com/html/templates/download/bryantsmith/greenmountain/
this is what my site looks like:
https://cherry-cupcake-30790.herokuapp.com/
as you can see background, background to the navbar and main images are missing but other styling and css are implemented.
why are the images not showing on my version?
why are the images showing on the demo version 0hen there seems to be no reference to the actual file location of the image (only styling of the image)?
thanks.

<h3>Template Notes</h3>
<p>The main image can be changed by either replacing the current image with another one of the same size (900x402), or using a new one of what ever dimensions you'd like. If you choose the latter, you must open up style.css and change the dimensions of #mainpic, as well as the file name if that is different. If you would like to move the heading around in the above image, find "#mainpic h1" in style.css and modify it's "left" and "top" properties, this is also true for the h2 tag.</p>
<p> </p>
<h3>More information</h3>
<p>I decided to leave the content portion open for the templates users to do as they wish with a blank canvas. I don't like to restrict my users too much, and for this reason I leave the defining of any content related styles to you.</p>

for problem 1, because your website's css is empty, nothing in. The css link is https://cherry-cupcake-30790.herokuapp.com/assets/application-e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855.css .
for problem 2, the image link refer is not in the html, but in the css file.
#mainpic {
background-image: url(images/main.jpg);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 900px;
height: 354px;
}
the image link is http://www.quackit.com/html/templates/download/bryantsmith/greenmountain/images/main.jpg
EDIT: Fixed it, I am daft. It was because h1 is below the div.
So I was making some web page for a school project and I keep running into this annoying problem, I am trying to make an image gallery on the page with multiple thumbnails all in ordered categories on a page. e.g. since it is video game themed it should be like heroes and maps. Problem is when I place an image, the image pushes the text I had at the top of the screen under it, probably a really simple solution to this just need a bit of help. thanks. here is the link
CSS:
#font-face {
font-family: bigNoodle;
src: url(Font/big_noodle_titling_oblique.ttf);
}
#splash {
z-index: 100;
position: absolute;
background: white url('Pictures/logo.png') center no-repeat;
top: 0;
right: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
font-family: bigNoodle;
color: #939393;
padding: 10px;
font-size: 40px;
}
body {
background: url('Pictures/bg.jpg') center fixed no-repeat;
}
h1 {
z-index: 1;
font-family: bigNoodle;
text-align: center;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-size: 60px;
color: #F99E1A;
padding-top: 10px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
div.picture img {
height: 200px;
}
HTML:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css">

<div id="splash">Click to continue...</div>
<div class="picture">
<img src="Pictures/Heroes.jpg">
</div>
<h1>Welcome</h1>
</body>
</html>
You can achieve it in multiple ways
Way 1:
You can apply z-index for text
for instance text 'welcome' is there inside h1
h1
{
z-index:999;
}
way 2:
take your image as background of div

Pretty noob question I'm sure. I ran into this problem when attempting to change the background color in a more complex webpage, so I started from scratch and still can't figure it out. Here's the simplified page
My goal is to set the background color of the site, but doing so with body had no effect, even when I had it filled with content. So I tried setting the background color and instead ran into a whole new problem. The header is not at the top of the site, since there's an unwanted space above the body element itself. I've tried setting everything to margin 0 and padding 0 to no effect. Here is my code:
html {
background-color: green;
}
.body {
padding: 0;
margin: 0;
}
#logo {
font-size: 2rem;
border-right: 1px solid grey;
color: green;
}
header {
border-bottom: 1px solid grey;
background-color: white;
}

have you tried "body" instead of ".body"?
Try :
#logo {
margin-top: 0px ;
}
body {
padding: 0px;
margin: 0px;
}
Try add This in your CSS:
html,body,header,section,p{
padding:0;
margin:0;
border:0;
}
it Works, No unwanted space.

Use
html,body{
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
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...

I am currently working on a practice example website as part of my Computer Science GCSE course. I am having real trouble with the navigation CSS. The website is very much in progress, so I know it's not great, but here is my code:

And here is the CSS:
body {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
}
.wrapper {
width: 1100px;
margin: auto;
}
.head {
text-align: center;
font-family: "Times New Roman";
font-size: 32px;
}
.nav li h2 a {
text-decoration: none;
color: #000000;
font-family: "Times New Roman";
width: 366px;
float: left;
}
.nav {
list-style: none;
width: 1100px;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
}
.nav_contain {
border-top: 5px #990000 solid;
border-bottom: 5px #990000 solid;
}
I would like to have the navigation bar between, the two borders of the navigation container, but they are not aligned properly. Please can you provide a solution below. Thank You.
You can add overflow: auto to the .nav container. This will prevent its height from collapsing because it only contains floated elements.
.nav {
list-style: none;
width: 1100px;
margin: auto;
text-align: center;
overflow: auto;
}
Alternatively, adding this to .nav_contain has a similar effect.
Add this
.nav li{
display:inline-block;
}
and remove the h2 tags.
You may also have to reduce the size of the "a" tags to get them to stay in a line on screen. I'm on a 1280px monitor at the moment and I had to reduce their width to 300px.
Another alternative is to just remove the li tags completely. The links should still display side by side, and because your borders are outside of ".nav" then they should contain it.
If it doesn't work, just let me know.
generally try to avoid fixed values like
width: 1100px; //(1)
you can replace it for example by
width: 90%; //(2)
the (1) is destroying your site on other resolution than yours. Use (2) to avoid it.
