It wont let me ad an image until I get 10 reputations to post image.

Is this what you are looking for?
.feature_home{
position: relative;
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: bottom;
text-align: right;
width: 350px; /* image width */
height: 150px; /* image height */
}
.feature_image{
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
z-index: -1;
}
<div class="feature_home">
<img class="feature_image" alt="Thanks For your guys help" src="http://placehold.it/350x150">
<p class="feature_text">I really appreciate your guys help!</p>
<a class="feature_button" href="/xyz-101/">Thank You</a>
</div>

You can just get rid of <img> and use background-image style on .feature_home and give it a position:relative; so you can position feature_home and feature_button like you want it.
Here you have HTML code:
<div class="feature_home" style="background-image:url(image);">
<p class="feature_text">I really appreciate your guys help!</p>
<a class="feature_button" href="/xyz-101/">Thank You</a>
</div>
And here is CSS:
.feature_home{
width:300px;
height:200px;
position:relative;
display:block;
background-position:center center;
background-size:100%;
}
.feature_text{
position:absolute;
right:2px;
bottom:15px;
}
.feature_button{
right:2px;
bottom:2px;
position:absolute;
}
All the values are for example :)
http://jsfiddle.net/cjtdhcLr/

Here is something that will work, and instead of the red background choose your image
.feature_home {
width:400px;
background:red;
float:left;
padding:15px
}
p {
text-align:right;
}
a {
float:left;
text-align:right;
width:100%;
}
<div class="feature_home">
<p class="feature_text">I really appreciate your guys help!</p>
<a class="feature_button" href="/xyz-101/">Thank You</a>
</div>

<style>
.feature_home{
background-image:url("http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-biBlhcDYdZI/ULjLQeeCwzI/AAAAAAAAAmo/T9M9YTcMeWY/s400/BackgroundPanel.pngg");
background-repeat:no-repeat;
padding-left:25px;
padding-right:25px;
height:200px;
width:321px;
position:absolute;
}
.feature_button{
color:white;
position:absolute;
right:30px;
}
</style>
<div class="feature_home">
<p class="feature_text">I really appreciate your guys help!</p>
<a class="feature_button" href="/xyz-101/">Thank You</a>
</div>
</div>
Use position:absolute; http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_positioning.asp
Absolute Positioning
An absolute position element is positioned relative to the first parent element that has a position other than static. If no such element is found, the containing block is :
This should be enough to get you started. I would not use an actual img. You would be better assigning the image as the background of your feature_home div. See the css background-image.
if you have to use the img then you will need to use z-index to position the elements in layers with the image set below all of the other items.

HTML+CSS Menu with icons, combining 2 pictures

I have 2 questions (more like 1.5)
1) What would be the correct way to modify the menu in the first picture to look like the one in the second. Since I put both the picture and the text in the same <a> tag I'm having problems with the white border (the icons are 30x30px, no transparent space around them or anything) :
HTML:
<div id="header">
<div class= "main">
<div class="logoHeader">
<img src="logo.png">
</div>
<div class="menuPicHeader">
<img src="stovyklae.png"><h2>stovykla</h2>
<img src="klubase.png"><h2>klubas</h2>
<img src="elparde.png"><h2>el. parduotuvÄ—</h2>
<img src="kontaktaie.png"><h2>kontaktai</h2>
</div>
<div class="socialIconsWrapHeader">
<img src="yttop.png">
<img src="ftop.png">
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
h2{
display:inline-block;
text-transform: uppercase;
text-decoration: none;
color: black;
margin-left:10px;
margin-right:10px;
font-size:14px;
}
.logoHeader{
margin-left:15px;
float:left;
margin-bottom: 20px;
margin-top:15px;
}
.socialIconsWrapHeader{
float:right;
margin-top:15px;
margin-right:20px;
}
.socialIconsWrapHeader a{
margin:0px 10px 0px 10px;
}
.menuPicHeader{
float:left;
margin:20px 0px 0px 130px;
padding-left:10px;
}
.menuPicHeader a{
padding-top:20px;
padding-bottom:2px;
}
2) I was wondering what should I use to get the text onto the picture as seen here:
Should I cut the picture in a half, get some div and stick it to the bottom of the picture using the grey half as background? Or somehow just write on top of the <a>?
HTML:
<div class="rightCol1">
<img src="pic1.png">
<img src="pic2.png">
</div>
CSS:
.rightCol1{
float:right;
margin-right:30px;
margin-top:10px;
}
1: add .menuPicHeader a{ margin-right: 20px; }
http://jsfiddle.net/Lphup/
2: There are a lot of ways to do that, but here's one option:
http://jsfiddle.net/33vth/
for second
<div class="rightCol1">
<img src="pic1.png"><span>your text</span>
<img src="pic2.png"><span>your text</span>
</div>
CSS:
.rightCol1{
float:right;
margin-right:30px;
margin-top:10px;
}
.rightCol1 a {display:inline-block;position:relative;height:200px;width:100px;}
.rightCol1 a span {display:block;width:100px;height:70px;position:absolute;bottom:0;left:0;z-index:99;background:#333}
You can have more positioning control over the elements if you set their parent's positioning to 'relative' and then set their positioning to absolute. This lets you use top, left or right to set an absolute position for the child objects, in relation to their parent.
I didn't have a chance to try this, but something like this should do the trick:
.menuPicHeader { position: relative; }
.menuPicHeader a { position: absolute; top: 0; }

Z-index in IE9 Error

I'm currently working on a site, and I am having problems with two images not displaying correctly. IE 9 is the only browser I'm having problems with, so I just need some help. I'm working on a slideshow that has a shadow background to it. At the ends of the slideshow I'm attempting to just create two clickable divs that are transparent so I can move the slideshow back and forth. But the shadow background image is being layered on top of the transparent divs, and covering all but the extreme edges of the divs, whenever the cursor changes to a pointer is when you're over the divs.
<div id="HomeCarousel">
<div id="slideshow">
<div id="slideshow-area">
<div id="slideshow-shadow"><img src="#ACCOUNTRESOURCES/BannerOverlay.png" /></div>
<div id="slideshow-container">
<div id="slideshow-scroller">
<div id="slideshow-holder">
<div class="slideshow-content" id="slide0">
<img name="image0" src="#ACCOUNTRESOURCES/Orange.png"/>
</div>
<div class="slideshow-content" id="slide1">
<img name="image1" src="#ACCOUNTRESOURCES/Green.png"/>
</div>
<div class="slideshow-content" id="slide2">
<img name="image2" src="#ACCOUNTRESOURCES/Blue.png"/>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="click">
<div id="left-arrow"></div>
<div id="right-arrow" ></div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
This is my html layout, #slideshow-area and #left-arrow,#right-arrow are the elements I'm having a problem with.
#slideshow {
position:relative;
}
#slideshow-area {
position:absolute;
left:35px;
width:910px;
height:279px;
}
#slideshow-shadow {
position:absolute;
width:966px;
top:-22px;
left:-28px;
z-index:2;
}
#slideshow-container {
position:absolute;
overflow:hidden;
width:910px;
height:279px;
}
.slideshow-content {
width:910px;
height:279px;
}
#click {
position:relative;
position:absolute;
z-index:4;
}
#left-arrow, #right-arrow {
height:279px;
width:35px;
position:absolute;
top:22px;
z-index:3;
}
#left-arrow {
left:0px;
cursor:pointer;
}
#right-arrow {
left:945px;
cursor:pointer;
}
That is my CSS, as far as I know I'm doing things correctly, just IE 9 is not displaying it. Does anybody know anything I could do to fix this? Here's the website if you need it.
Thanks,
Morgan
div#click has no height; it is a 980x0px element since it does not contain a non-floated, non-positioned element. Define height on this element and the arrows contained in it will work as expected.

Border Radius only rounding the top of my divs?

I've been using the new CSS border-radius function for a while now, but I'm stumped today! I have a background image (120px x 60px) and have set a border radius of 5px, but it's only rounding the top two corners?!
The CSS code I'm using is here:
#buttonRow {
position:relative;
width:980px;
height:60px;
margin-left:51px;
margin-bottom:25px;
float:left;
}
#button {
position:relative;
float:left;
width:120px;
height:60px;
margin-left:25px;
padding-top:10px;
border-radius:5px;
background-image:url('../assets/buttons/generic_button.png');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
#singleLineButton {
position:relative;
float:left;
width:120px;
height:60px;
margin-left:25px;
padding-top:20px;
border-radius:5px;
background-image:url('../assets/buttons/generic_button.png');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
}
#buttonText {
width:120px;
height:auto;
color:#FFFFFF;
text-align:center;
font-size:16px;
font-family: Adobe Kaiti Std R;
}
And the output is this:
Why is it only showing the top corners as rounded?!
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Zulu

It might be that your image isn't long enough and thus you don't see the rounded corners on the bottom. I ran into that today, actually.
I simply set a background color and it showed me what the issue was. So, just modify your CSS to:
background-image: #00ff00 url('../assets/buttons/generic_button.png');
or:
background-color: #00ff00; /* bright green for contrast */
background-image: url('../assets/buttons/generic_button.png');
That will at least tell you if your image covers the whole area or not and you will know what to do from there.
In CSS3 it's done like this:
border-top-right-radius: 8px;
border-top-left-radius: 8px
Most likely the bottoms are getting cut off from overflow. Make sure the containing element is tall enough to accomodate the heights of these or set the all the ancestor's overflow to overflow: visible.
Also, use jsfiddle.net to post live examples instead of just the CSS in a vacuum. CSS requires context.
As previously answered, your image isn't large enough. Your div is 120x60px to match your image, but you have a padding-top of 10px, which extends the size of the div to 120x70px total--too large to show the rounding. Either change the size of your background image or resize the div to 50px tall--with padding, it'll end up at the proper size.
You can use this code
#buttonRow {
width: 1170px;
margin: 0 auto;
display: block;
}
#button {
position:relative;
float:left;
width:120px;
height:60px;
margin-left:25px;
padding-top:10px;
border-radius: 5px;
background-image:url('../assets/buttons/generic_button.png');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background: red;
}
#singleLineButton {
position:relative;
float:left;
width:120px;
height:60px;
margin-left:25px;
padding-top:20px;
border-radius: 5px;
background-image:url('../assets/buttons/generic_button.png');
background-repeat:no-repeat;
background: red;
}
#buttonText {
width:120px;
height:auto;
color:#FFFFFF;
text-align:center;
font-size:16px;
font-family: Adobe Kaiti Std R;
}
<div id="buttonRow">

Try using margin-top instead of padding top, I've had this issue recently and that seemed to fix it.

Rotated DIV edges blurry in Chrome

I have an audio post where the information is in rotated DIVs that are displayed on top of the album art. To see what I mean go here (the page). The area on the bottom left corner is the information. When viewed in Chrome you will see that the edges of the DIVs are blurred. Is there a way to "alias" the DIVs so they appear sharp? I know it's not a resolution thing because Firefox displays them perfectly.
.audioBox {
position:absolute;
bottom:160px;
margin-left:-11px;
-webkit-transform: rotate(-90deg);
-moz-transform: rotate(-90deg);
z-index:3;
width:343px;
}
.boxify {
margin:1px;
padding:5px;
float:left;
bottom:0;
width:329px;
}
.box {
background:#000;
padding:5px;
padding-left:10px;
padding-right:10px;
margin-left:-5px;
}
<div class="audioHolder">
<div class="audioBox">
<div class="boxify" id="song">
<img id="audioBubble"

<div class="boxify" id="download">

</div>
</div>
Solution: I replaced the background color with a background image of the same color instead. :-) Hope it helps somebody else with a similar problem.
I know I'm little late but...
I have similar problem now and in my case changing the size helps, just use even numbers
.blurry {
left: 100px;
height: 30px;
width: 135px;
}
.sharp {
left: 200px;
height: 30px;
width: 136px;
}

Internet Explorer: relatively positioned button alignment in absolutely positioned box

In IE7, my order sample button "#itmSampl" isn't vertically aligned with the ".add-to-cart" button to the left of it, although in FF3.6 and Chrome 5 it is. I need it to be aligned correctly in IE6-8. Does anyone see what I'm missing?
<style type="text/css">
#buttonbox { position:relative; width:326px; }
#accounting #box-accounting .image-item .content-account .add-to-cart { clear:both; margin:0 0 10px; }
#accounting #box-accounting .image-item .content-account
#ordrWizrd { float:left; height:24px; width:111px; }
#accounting #box-accounting .image-item .content-account .add-to-cart { clear:both; margin:0 0 10px; }
#itmSampl { bottom:0; cursor:pointer; display:block; height:24px; margin:0 3px 2px; position:absolute; right:0; width:120px; } .clearfix { clear:both; height:0; } </style>
<div id="buttonbox">
<div id="addtocart2" class="add-to-cart">
<table><%=getCurrentAttribute('item','addtocarthtml')%></table>
</div>
<div id="ordrWizrd" class="add-to-cart"><img src="/images/img/add-to-cart.gif" alt="configure item"></div>
<div id="itmSampl"></div>
</div> <div class="clearfix"></div> </div>
Also, here's the test page if a visual helps (you have to login to see the buttons instead of the bulleted list): http://www.avaline.com/85W_test_2

Solution 1: Since you are already using a lot of tables in your page, another one won't hurt - just change your HTML from what you have above to something like this (may require a few tweaks):
<div id="buttonbox">
<div id="addtocart2" class="add-to-cart">
<table><tr>
<td><table><%=getCurrentAttribute('item','addtocarthtml')%></table></td>
<td valign="bottom"><div id="itmSampl"></div></td>
</tr></table>
</div>
<div class="clearfix"></div>
</div>
<!-- And also put #ordrWizrd in there somewhere -->
Solution 2: Take away all the "position: absolute" stuff with #itmSampl (remove the CSS bottom, position, right, and maybe margin and height/width properties). Then, add CSS float: right; margin-top: -36px; to #itmSampl to make it float on the right and move upward 36 pixels.
