This is an example of the effect I'm trying to acheive only without using images.
I want to create these screens that take up the entire screen like in the example. But instead of using background images to keep the content position, I'd like to use any HTML content within these screens. I'd also like to eventually ad a parallax effect similar to this.
So let's break it down. I got these background images on these screen elements. The background is fixed so it stays in the same position when you scroll. When you scroll down, the element moves out of view and another comes into view. It gives this effect as though the scrolling is causing a cover to slide up and reveal another screen. I want to keep this effect only without using background images. So I'll need some way to have some content remain fixed and have a contain hide it when it overflows an element that isn't fixed. But, as far as I know, there's no way to do this with CSS alone, am I wrong?
Like I said above, it would be interesting to have the content not remain exactly fixed, but instead slightly move it as you scroll giving it a slightly parallax effect. In order to do that tho, I'll need to use JavaScript. But, that's a bit out of the scope of my question, but I'd like to keep this in mind when coming up with the solution.
Thanks for all help in advance!

I've seen similar questions to do this but so far I can't find any that address the obvious. On my website the top portion is a different color than the body which I created using a div and setting a color to that div. Two simple questions.
How do I get that div to fill the entire portion of the header of the screen regardless if I zoom in or out?
And how do I keep my title and menu bar from falling out when I zoom-in the browser?
I have gotten close so many times but there is always a compromise. Either the div fills the entire header but when I zoom in the text falls out and causes the div to wrap around the page or the menu wraps and it's just gotten frustrating. I hope what I wrote made sense but if not here is a clear example of what I want to accomplish. http://carlodiego.businesscatalyst.com/index.html#home
Notice on this page that if you zoom in or out the top portion remains filled with the same color.

simply make the add css with width:100% && margin:auto
I have designed a simple website. The only thing left is to make a small box on the left. But I want to be always visible even when I scroll down. It's use will be something like a small ad. ![floating box][1]
Can you post an example or two? what css is needed for this? (if it's needed)
unfortunately I can't post any images because of I am a new user (I am not allowed to.. and this kinda frustrating)
But I will post an image as soon as possible.
You should apply position: fixed to this box.
Fixed Positioning
An element with fixed position is positioned relative to the browser
window.
It will not move even if the window is scrolled.
Here's a sample: http://www.w3schools.com/css/tryit.asp?filename=trycss_position_fixed
You can read more about CSS positioning here: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_positioning.asp
Here's a jsFiddle that I baked for your that shows how you can get this working: http://jsfiddle.net/leniel/8ub7s/2/
You can see that even when you scroll, the title is still visible and if you hover it, the ad box will show. Just adapt the CSS to your needs as you want it floated to the left. :)
I've already had a look through some posts and couldn't find what I was after. I'm designing something in PS at the moment and I can foresee an issue when it comes to coding the design into html+css.
Imagine my centre div, it's 960px. It's going to have a semi-transparent .png as a background. The design is “full width” so this div will be contained in a larger div, set to 100% width. This is all ok until I get to the background on this outer div. It's also going to have a .png running the full width of the page. Problem is: I don't want it running through the middle, as it will result in the middle have a double thickness to it, if that makes sense?!
Basically, I need a way to either run a div either side that is elastic, or someway of stopping the background from running across the centre 960px portion of the browser window.
I have NO idea how this can be achieved, apart from using JS to set widths, which I don’t really want to do.
Any ideas?
Ok, I’ve tried to get the basic issue here: http://jsfiddle.net/8Bznc/1/
You can just put a non-transparent background on the center div, so the other background doesn't show through.
See here: http://jsfiddle.net/9bnHD/
Apply the background-image only to the wrapping div.
Alternatively, if the center and sides need to have different images, give the center div a non-transparent background-color as well.
Also, you could fake it by using multiple background-images. Demo
Keep in mind this won't work in old versions of IE, but something as non-essential as background transparency can be excepted as graceful degradation.
I have a problem I haven't found an answer to in similar questions:
I have a site that dynamically resizes a horizontal scrolling image gallery and some text as you resize the browser. That part I have working OK, I just can't seem to get proper control of each respective element.
Take a look: http://john-godwin.co.uk/testsite
If you resize the browser, the large text overlaps the gallery before the gallery starts shrinking, and if you resize the browser small enough, the gallery eventually overlaps the footer as well.
Does anyone know what changes I need to make to the code to make everything stay within a boundary and resize respective of the other elements without encroaching into each elements space?
Thanks in advance.
The CSS can be found in http://john-godwin.co.uk/testsite/css/style.css
Remove z-index:500; in the .content class
The problem is as follows:
I have a header which has a width of 100% (thus it is from side to side of the screen). My background image, starts soon after the header.
In the body I have a box with contents which is centered. When I resize the window I want that the background is overlapped, thus I want this content box to move to the left when doing so. Until it reaches a limit that the background is completely hidden. It will then reach a point that the box cannot shrink thus having a min-width.
How shall I make the box of content overlap the background without hindering the header?
(BTW I have no idea what the tags are. Because this website is asking me for tags)
Thanks
This layout is called Elastic because the page contents adjust as the window does.
Since you didn't provide the HTML, we can't help you anymore than providing the relevant CSS style to apply to your mysterious "box".
style="width:80%; min-width:500px;"
If you're messing with HTML and CSS, I strongly recommend reading up on the basics. The more you know yourself, the more we can help you.
