For the life of me I can't figure out why nothing will centre.
This image explains better than I could about what I want.
I want to centre all fields without changing which way around the kanji appear (For some reason the {{Expression}} field keeps flipping when I try to centre.
http://pastebin.com/PqEN9xMT
In your Templates wrap the Expression field with a div, give the div a class, and then center it with css styling.
If you want the absolute center of the main window try:
Front Template:
<div class='center-me'>
{Front}
</div>
Styling:
.center-me {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
position: absolute;
top:0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin: auto;
}

I'm working on this page and trying to get the slideshow to display correctly at tablet and mobile widths with media queries. However, all of the slider container elements are setting their height to 590px and this is creating a large gap beneath the slider and its content. I don't belive any of the elements have a fixed height set, but I have used some max-height:590px here and there. Any thoughts on how to get rid of that gap and force the containers to resize correctly?
Slider uses Cycle2.
Some HTML code
<div id="slider" class="cycle-slideshow" data-cycle-pager="#adv-custom-pager" data-cycle-slides="> div" data-cycle-timeout="7000">
<div class="singleSlide">
<!-- content goes in here -->
</div>
And some CSS that I think is important:
#homeslider {
height: auto;
}
#homeslider, #slider img {
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
#homeslider {
width: 1090px;
margin: 0px auto;
max-height: 590px;
}
For reference, this slideshow is the expected behavior.
ETA: Added some of the code that I think is important?
In your .slidercaption you have a top:-200px which is causing the issue. Unlike margin, elements with position:relative won't physically move when you set a top or left style. That means the occupied space for that element will still remain on that position.
So to fix that, remove top: -200px and replace with margin-top: -200px instead.
From this:
.slidercaption {
position: relative;
top: -200px;
}
To this:
.slidercaption {
margin-top: -200px
}
Take note, in your css there's a margin:0 set in that element. Make sure your update will override that existing style.
Update:
A far better solution is to use position:absolute instead, since having a negative margin or position is more likely to get an issue with that huge value.
So...
From:
.slidercaption {
position: relative;
top: -200px;
}
To:
.slidercaption {
position: absolute;
bottom:0;
}
Then what was causing the below elements to go up is because of this:
#sliderNav {
margin-top: -190px;
}
Change that to:
#sliderNav {
position: absolute;
bottom: 168px;
z-index: 99;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
}
When you came to a point where you are using large negative values, you can use position:absolute instead which is very helpful and less likely to have some issues if used properly.
Actually this is a problem I encountered during the developing of blogger.
I want to write a navbar on my own, but the width of parent elements limit the style width:100%, even if I set the float properties to it.
Please see the image above. Only nav's HTML/JS/CSS are configurable. So how can I configure the CSS Style of class nav to archive this goal?
Or, If you have relevent experience in developing blogger, please tell me.
Thanks a lot!
use position absolute for your nav. Look at this FIDDLE
html :
<div class="first">0</div>
<div>
1
<div class="nav">NAV</div>
</div>
<div>2</div>
css :
div { background: grey; width: 75px; height: 50px; margin: 20px auto; }
.first { margin-top: 75px; }
.nav { background: red; position: absolute; top: 10px; left: 0px; width: 100%; margin: 0; }
EDIT
Your nav is in a position:relative; well you can append your nav to your body with that jquery (HERE THE FIDDLE UPDATED):
$(".nav").appendTo("body");
To achieve that kind of 'layering' you probably need to use absolute positioning, especially if your options are limited. This has the obvious caveat of taking it out of the page's flow, so you'll need to ensure your page is never too short for it to be visible. It won't affect other elements around it either.
So, something like:
nav {
left: 0;
position: absolute;
top: 400px;
width: 100%;
}
Hopefully one of its parents has a position: relative; so the nav knows where to use as an origin point when positioning absolutely, otherwise it'll use the top left of the browser pane.
You may also need a z-index value if you want your nav to appear behind the content.
Not sure if this is what you are searching for, but you can try giving your naviation position: absolute; and width: 100%;. This will get the navigation element out of the flow of the document.
thiv.net/mobile needs to work on mobile, and it does, however when I turn my ipod to vertical, it changes drastically, my problem is i need the whole lot, textbox, button and image to be centered vertically, or change on rotate. I think centering the div vertically is the best option, so what css would i use?
Currently i have tried:
.center
{
position:absolute
top:40%;
bottom:40%;
height:20%;
}
But that doesn't work, so maybe it should only be centered after rotating?
Any ideas?
Try following CSS :
.center {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
position: absolute;
top:0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
margin: auto;
}
you can also follow the link of stack-overflow : Best way to center a <div> on a page vertically and horizontally?
If you know the height:
div.centered{
height: 100px;
top: 50%;
margin-top: -50px;
}
Optional: position: absolute | relative | fixed depending on what you want to achieve
the margin-top should always be 0 - half of the height of your div to center.
How we can add a div tag over a slideshow like in the following link
http://www.hellofresh.com/
Here the div with title "DISCOVER THE JOY OF COOKING " is placed over a slideshow.
How might I do this?
First of all, welcome to Stackoverflow (oops; this isn't your first question!). The key to placing your div over the slideshow (or over any other element) is using absolute positioning. Absolute positioning enables you to specify the exact position for an element instead of leaving it with the flow of the document. If you take a look at your example website's CSS, you can see that the div that has "Discover the joy of cooking" is styled basically like this:
position: absolute;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
top and left act somehow like x and y in a 2-dimensional grid system, except that the origin is placed differently. top: 0px; pulls the div up and left: 0px; pulls the div left, so all-in-all, it's placed on the upper-left corner.
To achieve the effect of the translucent black, you use the opacity property. opacity: 0.5; means that the div is half-opaque, while opacity: 0; means it's not visible at all. Your favorite value might be something like opacity: 0.7; -- anything in the range 0...1.
The last piece here is to tell the browser that the div should be over the slideshow, not behind it. To do that, use the z-index property. z-index specifies the relative "stack order" of elements. So if you want your div to be over the slideshow, style it with z-index: 5; while styling the slideshow with z-index: 1;, for instance.
Hope that helped at all!
Ok, you can do something like this ( http://jsfiddle.net/YgpqX/ ):
<div class="div1"></div>
<div class="div2"></div>
.div1 {
width: 320px;
height: 200px;
background: #aa5;
}
.div2 {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
margin-top: -200px;
background: #5aa;
}
Or ( http://jsfiddle.net/YgpqX/1/ )
<div class="div1"></div>
<div class="div2"></div>
.div1 {
position: relative;
width: 320px;
height: 200px;
background: #aa5;
}
.div2 {
position: relative;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
top: -200px;
background: #5aa;
}
And if your block in html should be earlier then slider block, then use z-index: 9999; to get it up.
And also abolute position:
<div class="div1">
<div class="div2"></div>
</div>
.div1 {
position: relative;
width: 320px;
height: 200px;
background: #aa5;
}
.div2 {
position: absolute;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background: #5aa;
}
By setting the opacity property in CSS
This is some basic info on this one W3schools Css opaque
They are accomplishing this effect using CSS Positioning. Basically they are absolutely positioning the discover the joy of cooking block over the slide show. You can use z-index on the absolute position div to bring it over the relative position (slideshow) div. Basically you need to use a combination of position and z-index. I have a basic example of the CSS/HTML here: http://jsfiddle.net/jqVAe/1/
HTML:
<div id="slideshow">
Scrolling sideshow goes here. Scrolling sideshow goes here. Scrolling sideshow goes here. Scrolling sideshow goes here. Scrolling sideshow goes here. Scrolling sideshow goes here.Scrolling sideshow goes here.
<div id="over-slideshow"></div>
</div>
CSS:
#slideshow{
width: 400px;
height: 200px;
position: relative;
background: green;
}
#over-slideshow{
position: absolute;
top: 10px;
left: 10px;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background: red;
}
This provides a basic structure in which to put your slideshow. I would recommend finding a good slide show plugin and not trying to reinvent that functionality. I'm sure there are plenty of Jquery (Javascript Framework) plugins that will accomplish this task for you.
You may try position: absolute and z-index. z index is used to align a layer over or under a layer. You may go through;

i have created a website but now i am having 1 issue. i am unable to do click even on link and navigation.
you can take a look:
http://www.cambridgekitty.com/business-directory/
to check the real codes.
HTML
<div id="main-bg">
<div id="left-side-logo"></div>
</div>
CSS
#wrap {
padding: 0;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
}
#main-bg {
background: url("../img/kittybg2-h.png") no-repeat scroll right top transparent;
margin: 0 auto;
min-height: 733px;
position: relative;
width: 100%;
z-index: -9999;
}
just add a logo on left side
#left-side-logo {
background: url("../img/norwichkitty-final-logo-bg-02.png") no-repeat scroll 0 0 transparent;
height: 500px;
left: -150px;
opacity: 0.8;
position: absolute;
top: -60px;
width: 500px;
z-index: -1;
}
and add
position: relative;
to #wrap. and add
z-index: -9999;
to #main-bg.
but after doing this ... i am unable to click on logo or even navigation links.
please let me know why i am casusing this issue.
thank you
Don't use a negative z-index if you don't know exactly what you're doing. Use a positive value and just set #left-side-logo's z-index to a value even higher.
Since #wrap has a negative z-index, it's placed behind the content of #inner-wrapper in the latter's stacking index.
See also:
W3C: CSS2.1: 9 Visual formatting model (Section z-index)
If I were you, I would simple change the elements I apply the different background images to. Give #inner-wrapper the city image background, and #main-bg the logo background. Then use the background-position property to position the logo background (currently the two zeroes in your background rule). Also, if you want opacity for that logo you can achieve that by simply setting it in Photoshop or whatever editor you prefer.
This solution means you don't have to deal with the z-index issues and makes for more hack-free and semantic mark-up, although you do have a few containers. Hope this helps :)
