I'm using bootstrap for a personal website, and I'm having trouble with a Javascript slideshow.
Basically, when the browser window gets smaller, instead of the slideshow DIV content shrinking proportionally and maintaining the sizes of the content, it is cutting off the edges of the content.
The text isnt breaking to another line when I resize the browser it just covers up the content. I'm sure this is very simple but I just cant work it out, would be very appreciated if someone could take a look, here is the link to the website you can see for yourself.

I see some issues with your HTML. Layout you have created is not required and you'll keep running into issues as you move forward with it.
Hence i would suggest to fix it now itself.
As you want to use bootstrap, get more idea about their responsive design elements : Tutorial / Bootstrap Responsive Grid System
Then choose a theme among these
It will automatically take care of you design's responsiveness.
Ok I fixed the issue, I spent about an hour looking at the media queries in bootstrap-responsive.css.
First I had to use navbar-right in my header and remove all of the margin, padding I had previously used to position the links.
This was stopping the links this maintained the links to the right of the window without covering them when I resized.
Then the navbar was breaking onto 2 lines, so I had to change the media queries.

I've got my slider up and running on http://cirrusfitness.com
The problem I'm running into is when I shrink down the browser (to test responsive) the image inside the slider shrinks as well, independent of the carousel container and is creating a large white gap before the panel pager nav.
I have attempted to use background-size: cover but I can't seem to target the correct elements.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.
Are you using a plug-in for your slider? It seems like the JavaScript automatically generates the styles every time the slide switches, which makes your CSS code over the background useless.
You can try making your background-size !important, but I'm not sure if that would fix it perfectly. Unless you can locate and change the Javascript instead, I don't see any easy way of fixing this.
I have used and would suggest this plug-in instead, which have the images at fixed sizes: http://www.menucool.com/javascript-image-slider
I'm having a problem with a website I've built: whenever I view the site on a smaller monitor or when I resize the browser window, the content gets covered by the other divs. I need the content to be fully visible, no matter what size the browser is.

Also, on the homepage the text gets cut off a little bit on the bottom row when I resize the browser. I need this row to increase in height a bit, which apparently can't be achieved by simply increasing the divs' height.

You should take a look at responsive web design. By using a fluid grid together with one or many media queries you can achieve what you're asking for.
Here's a good introduction if you'd like to get started. I can also highly recommend Ethan Marcotte's book about the subject!
The simplest way is not to define widths in pixels but using only width in %. You defined for example width: 960px; for <html> so if the browser window is less than 960px the whole content of this site won't be visible. You also defined the footer width and probably some more elements.
But the true is nowadays you should learn rather Responsive Web Design to create your page adjusting to device width. Many sites are being used by people on PC, laptops, tablets and mobile phones and you cannot create complex site to look nice on all those devices without using responsive design techniques.
I have begun developing a webpage, just playing around, and I noticed an issue. I code with my live site on one half of my screen, with my editor on the other. It was all going fine until I extended my web browser fully and noticed that only part of my site was re sizing how I wanted it too. Sadly my site is not live, however I do have a link to the code: http://pastebin.com/yeWzfsBW
In theory, the image (logo) doesn't scale down when I resize the window, it stays the same size no matter what. I attempted to use percentages instead of pixel width/heights however it seemed to have no effect. I will try to pop this live so you can see what I mean exactly.

windowed mode: imageshack.us/photo/my-images/42/resizedkl.jpg/ (please put in the http:// I couldn't link more then two links in this post)
Hopefully you can see what I mean, i'd like the logo to scale, like the #info css section.
Thanks!
no need to wrap the image in a div.
set width & height in css.
set max width and max height.
there is a challenge with keeping the aspect ratio on the image.
to get started, below is an example using your code. after looking at this you may provide feedback about exactly you are trying to achieve.

I'm making a quick and dirty website for a university wed design module. The website isn't intended to work but instead to be used as a tool to demonstrate how the proposed design would look and operate.
I have used a bootstrap template and things have gotten a bit messy.
The Problem:
I have a navigation bar on the left of each page with an image as a background. if i re-size my browser window the content remains the same height (as it should) but the background disappears from the bottom.
here's a link to the website:

I don't know if this is due to poorly formed HTML or a css issue. any help would be greatly appreciated.
This has to do with bootstrap because it makes it able to use the layout on your phone.
the lower the width the more it's going to move to phone version.
I'm designing a chat page for a radio station and i am working on a 1360X768 Res' on a 32Inch screen.
When i ask friends to check the page layout it gets messy for them or elements get smaller in screen and the page wont stay consistent.
If its possible i would like to know if there is a fixed settings i need to insert to "body" in CSS so things like that wont happen, and when i move an element in my screen it will stay like that with other resolutions/screens.
The web page in question
Warning: There is music on Auto play in the page.
Also, if its ok to ask 2 different things but related.
I want to add the scrolling stats on the bottom to the bottom player..right where it says "now playing".
But everything i try wont make it go on top of it..z-index wont help.
Any thoughts?
The first mistake you're making is you're designing on a particular
resolution.
The second mistake you're making is that the resolution
you're designing on is way above the most commonly used 1024x768.
Take a look at MediaQueries. They allow you to build a fluid website that changes drastically at given resolutions.
