Absolute Positioning Causing Flickering - html

I have two pages that are making use of absolute and relative positioned elements at the top of the page. The issue is that the lower content is coming in sooner than the header content which is causing a flickering effect on these pages:
http://test.icpm.biz/blog/index.html
http://test.icpm.biz/blog/article.html
It is most noticeable in Chrome.
CSS:
.single-article figure {
position: relative;
overflow: hidden;
min-width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 550px;
width: 100%;
background: #black;
text-align: center;
margin-top: 0px;
padding-top: 0px;
-webkit-transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
}
.single-article figure img {
position: relative;
display: block;
min-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
opacity: 0.5;
filter: alpha(opacity=50);
z-index: 1000;
-webkit-transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);
}
.block {
position: absolute;
max-height: 1px;
width: 100%;
z-index: 3000;
top: 0%;
left: 0%;
right: 0%;
bottom: 0%;
-webkit-transform: translate3d(0, 0, 0);

This happens because the image you are loading in the element doesn't have any dimensions. So the solutions would be:
a) Give dimensions to the image loaded inside the figure, eg:
width="100%
height="550"
b) Even better, don't give the figure a max-height:550px, but rather a height:550px and use the image as a background-image and scale it accordingly using background-size:cover.

You can use jquery to initially hide the element that take longer to load and then fade them in nicely.
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".myElement").delay(2000).fadeIn();
});
And in your css
.myElement{
display:none
}
Also many of the relative positioning in there is unnecessary.

Footer issues -I can't make images plus text stay in a horizontal line

I am very new to this so please be kind :)
I am creating a portfolio page with an image gallery, with a header on top and a footer at the bottom. As soon as I entered the code for a gallery, my footer moved - and now I can't see how I can make it all in one line (like it is on the home page I created! It seems fine!)
If anyone would like to give any advice on how to fix this, I'd be so happy! Also for some reason the footer is just floating in the middle of the page?!
Thank you.

How to keep an image responsive and not effect other elements?

I'm trying to include an image above text, however it affects the text if I resize that image. Whatever I try to do, either it losses responsiveness or moves text under the screen (I have one page 'body' with hidden overflow). I managed to move an image to the center of the screen both in height and width without it affecting the text below, but changing it's width makes it non responsive and moves other elements. Any help?
In short: I want that image above the text, bigger, responsive and not affecting the text.

Because you are giving position absolute to .pagr_foto. And you didn't mention any css for image. By default image tag won't respect any other elements. So you have to mention style by your own.
.pagr_foto {
border-style: solid;
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
.pagr_foto_img{
width: 100%;
}
.container {

top: 64%;
max-width: 70%;
}
.icon {

Flickity carousel not sizing slides width correctly in Firefox

I try to use flickity to have a good looking lazy loading image carousel. It works great on chrome and safari but the slide doesn't size correctly to the image in firefox.
Please try the following link with firefox and another browser to get the idea: imagescroll
Does anyone knows how to fix the issue with firefox without losing the ability to have variable slide widths? Thank you very much!

Cant get text to move on HTML page with CSS

very new to HTML and CSS. Can't get my text to move under my images. I have 4 images and under them I want to be a paragraph of text. This is probably a dumb question so please excuse my ignorance. I cant get the text to move where I want(and the values in the CSS file, pixel wise, are wrong but I can't even get 3 of them to show up to try and adjust them as its under my navbar or the images?). The images show up, in the correct order and are formatted correctly.
Trying to get to look like this:
https://gyazo.com/c3de4fa6832107a8f16300cbacca47f8
Thanks in advance
Here is my CSS/HTML files:
.img {
position: relative;
float: left;
width: 250px;
height: 250px;
background-position: 50% 50%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
padding-top: 100px;
}
.text1 {
position:relative;
left:100px;
top:400px:
}
.text2 {

I wasn't sure if you wanted to keep your HTML structure or if it was open to revision so I just worked within the constraints your provided. What I did was remove your floats and instead use display: inline-block which will stack elements horizontally rather than vertically within their container. You can see I've also used [id*="text"] which will allow the capture of any elements with an id that contains 'text'. I'd suggest also moving away from pixels and go for a more responsive unit such as percentages or rem. If you think there is value in me showing you how I would approach this problem I'm more than happy to throw a quick example together for you. I hope this helps.
.img {
position: relative;
display:inline-block;
width: 250px;
height: 250px;
background-position: 50% 50%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
padding-top: 100px;
}
.text1 {
position:relative;
left:100px;
top:400px:
}
[id*="text"] {
width: 250px;
display: inline-block;
}
With respect to the other answers assuming there is an image and caption relationship between the text and the images then a possible improvement to the solution would be as follows:
http://codepen.io/lostdino/pen/PPrryZ
.gallery img {
position:relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-position: 50% 50%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}
.gallery {
padding-top: 100px;
padding-left: 10px;
position:relative;
}
.gallery > figure {
position: relative;
display:inline-block;
width: 250px;
height: 250px;
}
The HTML of the gallery restructured like so:
<div class="gallery">
<figure>
<img src="" alt="" class="gallery-image" />
<figcaption class="gallery-image-caption">TEXT UNDER PIC 1</figcaption>
</figure>
<figure>
<img src="" alt="" class="gallery-image" />
<figcaption class="gallery-image-caption">TEXT UNDER PIC 2</figcaption>
</figure>
<figure>
<img src="" alt="" class="gallery-image" />
<figcaption class="gallery-image-caption">TEXT UNDER PIC 3</figcaption>
</figure>
<figure>
<img src="" alt="" class="gallery-image" />
<figcaption class="gallery-image-caption">TEXT UNDER PIC 4</figcaption>
</figure>
</div>
The reason your text isn't aligning as you'd wish is because <p> and <div> are block level elements by default, which means they'll fill space and start on new lines. To remedy this, you could change the display property to be inline.
That said, you're approaching this wrong, you're not grouping your image and the caption together. Your structure should be more along these lines:
<div class="container">
<!-- Image One -->
<div class="image-container">
<img src="#.jpg" alt="a" class="img-circle img" />
<div class="image-text">
<p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Image Two -->
<div class="image-container">
<img src="#.jpg" alt="a" class="img-circle img" />
<div class="image-text">
<p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
</div>
</div>
<!-- Image Three -->
<div class="image-container">
<img src="#.jpg" alt="a" class="img-circle img" />
<div class="image-text">
<p>Lorem ipsum...</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
You would then set your desired widths on the .image-container class, and your image and captions will follow suite.
Your paragraphs are not nested in the proper order to achieve this. Make sure you place the paragraph tags within the div tag that contains the images.
Also, use the inspect element tool when you refresh your browser. In Google Chrome, go to View, Developer, and select Developer tools. A new window will appear at the bottom of the browser. When you hover over the font-end interface, the page will highlight your html nesting-structure.
Hope this helps, let me know if you have any more questions!

and the CSS;
div#content {
width: 900px;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
background-color: #fff;
height: auto;
border-radius: 2px;
min-height: 100%;
position: relative;
}
div#updates {
float: left;
margin-left: 2.6%;
}
Thanks for any help.
You should clear the float.
Add overflow CSS property (for example :auto) to the div#content.
A solution for modern browsers :
.div#content:after {
content:"";
display:table;
clear:both;
}
You have to clear the floating content:
<div style="clear:both"></div>
before closing yout div.content.
