I know it may sound stupid but I'm trying to change the background position for an 'anchor element' but I get no result.
The HTML looks like this:
Link
For the .second-link:visited I want to change the background position, I have no idea why it doesn't work.
Update
The css for .second-link looks like this:
.second-link { background: url(../images/sprite.png) no-repeat -13px -124px; height: 20px; width: 15px; display: inline-block; margin: 2px 0 -6px 2px; }
There is no content inside your a tag with the second-link class. Therefore it will not be visible on the page as both its width and height will be 0px. Adding some content content inside it will fix it, or if you don't want any content inside it, you'd have to set the a tag to display: inline-block; and set a width and a height on it to ensure that it is visible on the page.

I am trying to stick my pop up to top and make it a bit smaller to fit the screen.
Here is my landing page URL - yogavoga.com/2weekdiet
Any help will be appreciated.
.modal-content {
margin: 5px auto;
background-color: #fefefe;
border: 1px solid #888;border-width:3px;
width: 90%;
}
I'm not sure if this solves your question in full, because your sample code is a bit short and it doesn't show the element itself. I tried visiting your website, but can't find the element. So it is very difficult for us to say what you actually want.
margin is the space around your div element, in this case your modal. With your code you say your browser to put your element at the top, (0 margin at the top), and do the rest automatically. It does that and will center your element based on the width of your element.
You can scale your element with width. Make it smaller by reducing the percentage.
.modal-content {
margin: 0 auto; // 0 from top, left, bottom and right auto.
background-color: #fefefe;
border: 1px solid #888;
border-width: 3px;
width: 60%; // Width of your element.
}
TIP: remove the margin and padding presets from your body to have your element at the absolute browser border.
For a simple landing page I wanted to let some text box overlap an header image. To make it simple, I just have a structure like:
<header>
<img src="path/to/img.png" />
<h1>Awesome headline</h1>
</header>
All elements are set to display:block and the h1 is dragged inside the image with a negative margin. I also gave the headline some padding and background:white.
Now the problem: The headline text is shown on top of the image but the background colour is behind it! You can see an example here: https://jsfiddle.net/cv12evLn/
My guess is, that a browser renders all sibling blocks in layers, starting with all backgrounds and borders, then rendering images (img-tags) and finally text on top of everything else.
Is that right? And why the actual… I mean, that seems crazy unexpected to me.
To solve the issue, I've put the headline in a wrapper and set this to position:absolute. See here for a live example: https://jsfiddle.net/f5sd1u6o/
Use position:relative rather than negative margin. Then the z-index works automatically.
#container {
width: 500px;
height: 300px;
margin: auto;
}
#container img {
display: block;
width: 100%;
}
#container h1 {
display: block;
width: 50%;
height: 1em;
margin: auto;
padding: .5em 1em 1em;
font-size: 3rem;
background: yellow;
text-align: center;
border: 1px solid red;
position: relative;
top: -4.6rem;
}
<div id="container">
<img src="//placekitten.com/500/300">
<h1>
headline
</h1>
</div>
To get the Z-index to work, you need to apply position:relative anyway but you can still use negative margin if that is a design requirement.
JSfiddle demo (with negative margin)
Basically, backgrounds are rendered first before anything else (as I understand it) so they always come at the bottom of the stacking order. You just need to create a new stacking context and changing the position property does that.
As it happens so does changing the opacity of the element so a quick fix is to set opacity:.9999;
JSfiddle Demo (opacity 'hack')
I have HTML And CSS like this below :
<style>
.header_div{
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #F3F3F3;
border-bottom: 1px solid #D5D6D6;
box-shadow: 0 1px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.13);
height: auto;
left: 0;
padding: 0;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
z-index: 50;
}
.content_div { width: 100%; }
</style>
<div class="header_div"></div>
Issue: Due to of this fixed position of header div some the postion of content div goes behind the header div. I dont want to apply margin to content div to solve this. because that affect other page designs also.And header div position is compulsory. So is there any alternative solution?
I'm not even sure if I follow your question - an example would've been nice - but it sounds like you want a fixed header on some pages but don't want to push your content down because that would look weird on pages without the fixed header?
In that case, how about simply adding a class name to the content wrapper on pages woth a foxed header and apply margin to that? Like this:
<div class="header_div"></div>
<div class="content_div fixed_header"></div>
And then style it with:
.fixed_header { margin-top: 200px; }
Alternatively, if your markup allows it, target content_div only if it's a general sibling to header_div, like this:
.header_div ~ content_div { margin-top: 200px; }
Do you have different headers? The header would be the same on all pages right? So all content, or at least a div wrapping everything but the header could have a top margin to push it down. Why would you have content that could be over the header?
<div class="header_div"></div>
<div class="contentWrapper">
...everything else in here
</div>
Then push contentWrapper down. That's the proper way to do it.
Use padding instead of margin styling. It is the common way to prevent content overlapping:
.content_div {
width: 100%;
padding-top: 20px; /*or whatever */
}

I have a div that has a variable width, depending on its content. I want to use it for a menu bar that slides in from the side of the page when the user clicks it, so it has to stick out. I want it to stick out exactly 16px (because the arrow image has that size), no matter how wide it actually is.
How can I realize that without using JavaScript?
EDIT:
Thanks for your answers! But it came to my mind that I could do it just like I did with the navbar on that site – modify the width instead of sliding it in.
See here: http://dev.mezgrman.de/tagwall/
The easiest way to do that is to add another class to your menu item when it is collapsed and set another width there and a text indent like so (instead of write again all your css in a new class)
.collapsed {
width: 16px;
text-indent: -9999px;
background: url("/images/arrow_left.png") no-repeat scroll right center rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.85);
}
Now the only thing you have to do in javascript is to add and remove that class depending on the user's click. (You won't get rid of javascript. because css doesn't know when you click an element)

No matter how long the .box is, it will always overlap the .container only by exactly 16px:
html:
<div class="container"><div class="box">text</div></div>
css:
.container {
position: relative;
outline: 1px solid red;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
}
.box {
width: 70px;
position: absolute;
left: 100%;
margin-left: -16px;
outline: 1px solid black;
}
Add overflow: hidden; to .container to see how it might look like in action.
I solved my problem by modifying the width of my element now. Silly me.
I am having trouble getting a background-image to overlay the border of another div. We have a sidebar panel with various sidebars, including a navigation menu. To the right is the content panel. We'd like anything selected on the sidebar to appear connected to the content panel:
In the example above, there is a background image on the Personal Info <li> tag. I'd like to extend this image one pixel to the right so that the line next to the selected value isn't visible.
Here is my CSS for the submenu (selected) and the Content area to the right:
.submenu-item li span{
padding: 4px 0 4px 16px;
min-height: 16px;
border-bottom:0px;
}
.submenu-item li{
font-size:12px;
border: none;
padding: 0px 0 0px 16px;
}
.submenu-item span.Active{
background-image: url(../images/submenu-select.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
#Content {
margin-left:190px;
border-left: 1px solid #b0b0b0;
padding: 20px;
background: #FFFFFF;
min-height:600px;
}
Is there a way to do this other than putting a right border on my sidebar (and excluding it on the list item tag)?
If you have a border on that right, you just can't eliminate that part of the border.
However, you're in luck. Try using margin-right: -1px; in your CSS. This will drag the
element to the right 1 pixel, and hopefully over the border. You may need to also set
position: relative;
z-index: 100;
Also, because it's over to the right 1 pixel, to make it align on the left with the others, you may need to make the active element 1 pixel wider.
Alex's solution should work, but another way to do it would be to remove the border-left CSS atrtribute from #Content and instead use a 1 pixel wide gray GIF or PNG image on the DIV containing the submenu items.
Like this:
#SubMenu { background: url(grayline.gif) #CCCCCC top right; }
That would remove the need to worry about the selected submenu element not being aligned.
