Fixed text over background cover - html

I have a question regarding my website.
I have a parallax effect going on with my website but I want the text "Clinical trials" and all the text below it to stay fixed when I scroll over it, right now it just scrolls with the page how can I fix that?

I believe this is the correct way to respond instead of adding another answer. I have had similar issues with javascript working perfectly in one browser but not another. I remember Firefox causing the 'flashing' effect. So my question to you is, have you tested it on multiple browsers?
Sorry for the original response not being anything close to what you were trying to do. I read the original post and quickly scanned the tags assigned to it. By the time you had edited the original I had already answered. I am leaving the original markup incase it helps somebody else with a html/css implementation. The html/css keeps a div visible throughout the entire page. It doesn't provide the effect of keeping it visible once the user scrolls to it's location on the page.
ORIGINAL
The text you want fixed while scrolling should be in it's own div and assigned a class in the style sheet. Use top and right to position it.
HTML:
<div class="trials-fixed">Clinical trials</div>
CSS:
.trials-fixed{
position: fixed;
top: 0;
right: 0;
width: 300px;
}
The position property is explained more here.
You may have to set the z-index of the text; explained here.

css - fixed parent div showing 0.4px whitespace beneath content - cant fix it?

I've got this weird problem which it seems that i simply can't solve (so far). The weird thing is that I've done almost exactly the same layout before for a navigation-bar, which was succesful.
In my navigation bar i have a button (not an actual <button> but a <div> which acts like one through jquery) to the farthest right of it, which has a background color and expands on click. The problem is that in IE and some resolutions of Chrome as well, there's a little white stripe shown beneath this div. Further this makes the child div that expands beneath it have a little gap between the button in the navigation bar and it self. This might not matter to some people (or most), but it's driving me mad - especially considering that i've done it before and used almost the very same css.
The <div> (to be more precise, it's the "quick-download" div) is set to a height of 70px and line-height of 70px, and the same goes for its siblings (and some of them less). However, the parent div shows up as 70.4px in height, which is bugging me out. I've tried numerous "trial-and-error" solutions/attempts, but with no success at all.
EDIT:
An image of the problem can be seen here (i changed background to red to make it more apparent): http://imgur.com/fya0duQ
EDIT 2:
The white space beneath the quick-download div appears only to be showing in IE and Safari on my compute right now.
EDIT 3:
Link to website is removed as the problem is corrected and therefore no longer is useful.
Assuming you mean the "Quick Download" button...
The height of the navigation bar is 75px and the height of the button is 70px, creating a 5px-tall gap.
The reason your navigation bar is 75px is because your image on the left is 60px tall with margin-top: 15px;. If you want the button to be flush with the bottom of the navigation bar, you can either increase the height of the button, reduce the margin-top of the <img id="aktie-skat-logo" ...>, or reduce the image's height.
The CSS in question:
#aktie-skat-logo {
margin-top: 15px;
display: block;
}
I've actually tracked the problem down my self - however, only after checking the problem across different browsers, after posting in here. The hint came in my old version of safari and IE, and didn't show in Chrome - which is consistent with "EDIT 2" in the original post. I found that some links we're 0.4px higher than others, but only 2/5 links.
The problem apparently stems from inserting a FontAwesome icon using the css ::after selector to links that has "children" (subpages). After removing this or making these icons position:absolute the problem is solved.
As to why insering these using ::after I have no idea. The ::after element had display:inline so shouldn't have broken too much in my opinion.
I'm sorry that I might have wasted your time checking my problem and answering, but even though I found the solution my self, it was a help posting in here (wouldn't have found it otherwise). I hope this might help some other people at some point.

Div: full header without horizontal scrolling (neither with arrow keys)

Already a long time ago I started with a new homepage project. I've learnt to build up a homepage on my own, so I'm still in the learning process. Therefore, it might be possible, that I've chosen sometimes not the best way to implement something.
I'd like to have a full width header (and footer) on my webpage. For this reason I created some div tags like this one below:
.header_container_overall-1 {
height: 90px;
width: 1000px;
padding-left: 1000px;
margin-left: -1000px;
padding-right: 1000px;
background-color: #f1f1f1;
}
The problem now is, that a browser (or a mobile device) shows a horizontal scroll bar. I read in a post, that I could use "overflow-x: hidden;". I applied this snippet of code into the "body" class of my css-file. The horizontal scroll bar disappeared, but you can still scroll to the right using the arrow keys on your keyboard.
Unfortunately, I kept programming my website knowing this bug (I thought, that I will fix this later, but I think, this was not the best idea). However, I now came back to this bug and tried to fix it. I found several threads, in which the same problem occured:
kennykee.com/118/div-100-width-without-horizontal-scroll-bar/
stackoverflow.com/questions/18274386/div-overflow-is-hidden-but-still-can-scroll-using-keyboard-right-arrow-key
Then, I tried the following steps:
adding the "overflow-x: hidden;" to several classes (especially the header and footer classes) with the aim to prevent horizontal scrolling. I tried several options and in the end, I got a website, where the header and footer got clipped at the body (for example I got a width of 1000px instead of a full width).
when I tried to use "position: relative;" or "position: fixed;" in different classes, I ended up, that the main page (which is now centered because of margin-left and margin-right set to "auto") was set to the left.
I hope, you understand what I mean. It's hard to describe, even more with my bad English ;-). And as you can see, I sometimes tried stuff without even knowing, what I'm doing. It was more and more "try and error" and I came now to the desicion, that I'm at the end of my html and css knowledge to fix this problem. Maybe you can see the problem right now or maybe you have an idea, what I could try to do.
The website with the described error is available on:
http://www.airlink.ch
The css file is available too:
http://www.airlink.ch/stylesheets/layout.css
If you need any further information, please let me know. And sorry for this long explanation.
Best regards
I did not read the post much further than your CSS. I am sorry but you should not be using hacks like padding 1000 PX and margin 1000px. If you want a full width div, set the HTML and body elements to width: 100%. Then add width 100% to your header/footer div. Make sure to add the meta viewport tag for width = device width. You should do a quick google for some resources regarding device width and responsive design in general.
Hope you can get what you want working!

Linking an off-page div section with added padding

So I apologize in advance if this question has been answered before- I tried searching but couldn't find much on it.
A designer and I are working to create this website- www.zeinal-jundi.com
This is predominantly a one-page layout using a scroll effect to navigate to different sections, although the site's Discography section does link to a separate page for each album. We also have a fixed header that allows the navigation to be visible the whole time. Originally, I had added a margin to each section of the page to accommodate the height of the fixed header. This however made the space between each section far too large, so my designer requested I find a way around this. I was able to fix it by instead adding a value to the scroll animation script that brings the section around 250px from the top, rather than to the overall top of the page (where it would then be covered by the fixed header)
So now, I've of course encountered the issue of linking to these sections from off another page- using code like the following:
Biography
This of course links back to the front page, but brings the section up to the very top, where it is hidden by our header. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a way I can link to this section from another page but add an action similar to the one I have on the scrolling function that will bring it up to 250px down from the top of the page rather than the very top without me having to add margins to each div.
Another option of course it to just make that pesky fixed header a lot shorter, or possibly hide the site title after the page scrolls to a certain point, but our client seems pretty adamant about having the entire header visible throughout, so I of course am trying to find a work around so we won't have to rethink the entire element (if such a solution even exists).
I hope I explained this well enough! Let me know if you need to see any additional code- would love to hear your thoughts on how to achieve such a thing! :)
If you're placing the block through CSS, you can use the CSS3 :target pseudo selector to position whatever section the link pointed to, e.g.:
:target {
/* ... example:
top: 250px;
*/
}

Why is my absolutely positioned div invisible?

I am trying to create a slideout slideshow with three images and content mixings as if they were papers stashed in some folders, and there's a little handle at the bottom/top of each folder where it is named. Something on these lines:
Here's a sample fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/s99mtvv5/
But, the absolutely positioned bookmarklet becomes invisible in the parts that lie outside the parent divs. I've tried altering the z-indexes as suggested in this post. But that doesn't help.
I've also tried negative margins, and overflow is not hidden in y direction. Could somebody help me in getting this right?
Edit: Some more descriptive text on what I am trying to achieve, if the image is not clear.
What I am trying to create is thus: Imagine that the slide-handle be an actual handle to a drawer. So, even when in open, or folded state (when I push them horizontally out of view as the user hovers on some other slide) the handles are always visible, so that I can pull the drawers back from them, if I wanted. Hence, they are not IN their containers, they jut outside it.
.slide-handle {
bottom: 25px;
}
.slide-frame {
overflow: hidden;
}

Is this what you're looking for?

Multiple background images

First, a warning, I have come back from a years break of html/css and have pretty much forgotten everything, so I'm at newbie level again.
I have been trying to add background images - one at top left and one at bottom right. What I have at the moment can be seen here: http://test.nihongohub.com/Mainsite/firstsite.php as you can see if you change the width of the browser the div containing the img will hit my main part and ruin it.
I have tried a few fixes suggested on stack overflow but none of them worked. Does anybody have any suggestions how to fix this. A friend suggested that I add the img to the footer and squeeze it out, but I don't like this idea.
2 things I want this image to do, move with the browser window, and be able to go behind my main page.
Thanks for any help offered
You could try using fixed positioning and the use z-index to move it to the back, ie.
#bottom_leaf_holder {
position: fixed;
bottom: 50px;
right: 0;
z-index: -1;
}
edit: I ment fixed, changed the answer.
You could put all your content in a div, and add a css rule to that div. Something like
#main_holder {
background: transparent url('img.jpg') no-repeat bottom right;
}
The best solution for this would be to have a wrapper div just inside the body tag that contains only the background image. This will act similar to the body tag allowing you to place an image that does not interfere with the layout and will go underneath your content if the viewport is small.
