CSS background-size issue in Chrome - google-chrome

I have a CSS property background-size set to 729px auto; for a center div for a blue frame,
Here are the results in IE and Firefox (i hide the content with red box):
Here is the result in Chrome:
Doees any know if there are special tricks for background-size property in Chrome?

Why not use code instead of image? Problem solved.

HTML:
<div class="blue">
<div class="red">
</div>
</div>
CSS:
.blue {
width: 626px;
height: 326px;
box-sizing: border-box;
border: 2px solid blue;
border-radius: 10px;
}
.red {
width: 600px;
height: 300px;
margin: 10px auto;
box-sizing: border-box;
border: 3px solid red;
border-radius: 10px;
box-shadow: 3px 3px 5px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.7);
}

Try box-sizing: border-box; in your css.

After experiments i found out that Chrome doesn't recognize the auto property in here: 729px auto;
It just cuts it out:
But when i changed 729px auto; to 729px 1px; it WORKED!
I see the blue frame :)

Create inset window boxshadow border with space between actual window and border

I want to create the white border seen in the image below with CSS. White border that is set 25px inside the window. Iv'e tried to use box-shadow inset however was not able to create the space between the edge of the window.
I used this css:
border: 3px solid white; //took this out but still no luck
box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 5px #FFFFFF;
I also tried without the normal border as well.
I think I can create an overlay div that has a padding or margin and give it a border, but the problem is the content needs to be scrollable and clickable below it.
The goal:
The white box just above the icons.
Use a pseudo element
.parent {
position: relative;
height: 200px;
}
.wrapper {
height: 100%;
overflow-y: auto;
}
.content {
height: 600px;
background: url(http://lorempixel.com/600/600/abstract/1) no-repeat center center / cover;
}
.parent:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
left: 25px;
top: 25px;
right: 40px;
bottom: 25px;
border: 2px solid white;
}
<div class="parent">
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="content">
</div>
</div>
</div>
Use a transparent border to set the shadow where you want it.
The remaining problem is to extend the image to the borders. Use background-origin for this.
.test {
height: 250px;
width: 400px;
background-image: url(http://lorempixel.com/600/400);
background-origin: border-box;
background-size: cover;
border: 50px transparent solid;
box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 5px 5px cyan;
}
<div class="test">
</div>
hope this help.
body{
background: #000;
}
.wrapper{
width: 500px;
padding: 25px;
border: 3px solid #CCC;
}
.content{
border: 1px solid #fff;
padding: 15px;
color: #fff;
height: 400px;
}
<div class="wrapper">
<div class="content">
this is your content div with white border

border-radius with box-shadow inset pixelized / rugged

If you can't see this problem then please try take a look at this codepen, here you should see what I mean.
I've tried several ways to fix it. Below in comments you can see one of them. Still it seems to render 1px rugged border between proper border and dropped shadow.
If it depends on browser renderer then is it a bug?
How to fix it properly for all modern browsers.
html{
background-color: #554343;
}
div{
display: block;
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
margin: 0 auto;
border-radius: 50%;
border-width: 0; /* no result
border-width: 2px; // uncommented no result
border-style: solid;// uncommented no result even with inset*/
background-color: white;
box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 150px, inset -1px -1px 150px;
}
<div>
</div>
EDIT:
Tried also this way but without positive result:
html{
background-color: #554343;
}
.container{
display: block;
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
margin: 0 auto;
border-radius: 50%; /* tried 49.5% but it's not acceptable */
box-shadow: inset 1px 1px 150px #000, inset -1px -1px 150px #000;
}
.content{
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
border-radius: 50%;
background-color: white;
z-index: -1;
}
<div class="container">
<div class="content">

Seems like opened Chrome bug. I couldn't come up with a solution for your case. Please vote this issue on bug tracker if you want it to be fixed sooner!

CSS transparency issues in nested elements

hey there i wonder if any of you have come across a similar issue? i am working on an ad section of the webpage and its got a really cool background that i would like to carry on into sections of the elements so i have a box that hold a box for a rss feed into updates made on the website and then i have a box for adverts. here is my html:
<div class="side">
<div id="ad">
bla
</div>
<div id="rss_news">
double bla
</div>
</div>
and the css:
.side {
float: left;
background-color: black;
width: 300px;
min-height: 710px;
padding: 0 0 0 0px;
margin-top: 25px;
border: 1px solid white;
border-radius: 8px 8px 8px 8px;
opacity: 0.3;
}
#ad {
border: 1px solid blue;
height: 320px;
max-height: 350px;
margin: 15px;
opacity: 1;
}
#rss_news {
border: 1px solid yellow;
height: 320px;
max-height: 350px;
margin: 15px;
opacity: 1;
}
as you can see and as i was anticipating the side class immits his attributes on the ones nested within him. is there a way that i could somehow tell the other id tags to ignore that opacity?
thanks in advance :D
There is no way to make descendants ignore the parent's opacity.
You can use rgba/hsla colors to get a partially transparent background, without affecting the children's visibility. Example:
.side {
background-color: rgba(0,0,0, 0.3);
}
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/ywQy5/
See also:
MDN: hsla colors
MDN: rgba colors
You can use css3 rgba property for this & for IE you can use IE filter.Write like this:
.side{
background-color: rgba(0,0,0, 0.5);
background: transparent;
filter:progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=#7F000000,endColorstr=#7F000000); /* IE*/
zoom: 1;
}

CSS Inset Borders

I need to create a solid color inset border. This is the bit of CSS I'm using:
border: 10px inset rgba(51,153,0,0.65);
Unfortunately that creates a 3D ridged border (ignore the squares and dark description box)
You could use box-shadow, possibly:
#something {
background: transparent url(https://i.stack.imgur.com/RL5UH.png) 50% 50% no-repeat;
min-width: 300px;
min-height: 300px;
box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #0f0;
}
#something {
background: transparent url(https://i.stack.imgur.com/RL5UH.png) 50% 50% no-repeat;
min-width: 300px;
min-height: 300px;
box-shadow: inset 0 0 10px #0f0;
}
<div id="something"></div>
This has the advantage that it will overlay the background-image of the div, but it is, of course, blurred (as you'd expect from the box-shadow property). To build up the density of the shadow you can add additional shadows of course:
#something {
background: transparent url(https://i.stack.imgur.com/RL5UH.png) 50% 50% no-repeat;
min-width: 300px;
min-height: 300px;
box-shadow: inset 0 0 20px #0f0, inset 0 0 20px #0f0, inset 0 0 20px #0f0;
}
#something {
background: transparent url(https://i.stack.imgur.com/RL5UH.png) 50% 50% no-repeat;
min-width: 300px;
min-height: 300px;
box-shadow: inset 0 0 20px #0f0, inset 0 0 20px #0f0, inset 0 0 20px #0f0;
}
<div id="something"></div>
Edited because I realised that I'm an idiot, and forgot to offer the simplest solution first, which is using an otherwise-empty child element to apply the borders over the background:
#something {
background: transparent url(https://i.stack.imgur.com/RL5UH.png) 50% 50% no-repeat;
min-width: 300px;
min-height: 300px;
padding: 0;
position: relative;
}
#something div {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
border: 10px solid rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.6);
}
<div id="something">
<div></div>
</div>
Edited after #CoryDanielson's comment, below:
jsfiddle.net/dPcDu/2 you can add a 4th px parameter for the box-shadow that does the spread and will more easily reflect his images.
#something {
background: transparent url(https://i.stack.imgur.com/RL5UH.png) 50% 50% no-repeat;
min-width: 300px;
min-height: 300px;
box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 10px rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.5);
}
<div id="something"></div>
I would recomnend using box-sizing.
*{
-webkit-box-sizing:border-box;
-moz-box-sizing:border-box;
-ms-box-sizing:border-box;
box-sizing:border-box;
}
#bar{
border: 10px solid green;
}
To produce a border inset within an element the only solution I've found (and I've tried all the suggestions in this thread to no avail) is to use a pseudo-element such as :before
E.g.
.has-inset-border:before {
content: " "; /* to ensure it displays */
position: absolute;
left: 10px;
right: 10px;
top: 10px;
bottom: 10px;
border: 4px dashed red;
pointer-events: none; /* user can't click on it */
}
The box-sizing property won't work, as the border always ends up outside everything.
The box-shadow options has the dual disadvantages of not really working and not being supported as widely (and costing more CPU cycles to render, if you care).
It's an old trick, but I still find the easiest way to do this is to use outline-offset with a negative value (example below uses -6px). Here's a fiddle of it—I've made the outer border red and the outline white to differentiate the two:
.outline-offset {
width:300px;
height:200px;
background:#333c4b;
border:2px solid red;
outline:2px #fff solid;
outline-offset:-6px;
}
<div class="outline-offset"></div>
If you want to make sure the border is on the inside of your element, you can use
box-sizing:border-box;
this will place the following border on the inside of the element:
border: 10px solid black;
(similar result you'd get using the additonal parameter inset on box-shadow, but instead this one is for the real border and you can still use your shadow for something else.)
Note to another answer above: as soon as you use any inset on box-shadow of a certain element, you are limited to a maximum of 2 box-shadows on that element and would require a wrapper div for further shadowing.
Both solutions should as well get you rid of the undesired 3D effects.
Also note both solutions are stackable (see the example I've added in 2018)
.example-border {
width:100px;
height:100px;
border:40px solid blue;
box-sizing:border-box;
float:left;
}
.example-shadow {
width:100px;
height:100px;
float:left;
margin-left:20px;
box-shadow:0 0 0 40px green inset;
}
.example-combined {
width:100px;
height:100px;
float:left;
margin-left:20px;
border:20px solid orange;
box-sizing:border-box;
box-shadow:0 0 0 20px red inset;
}
<div class="example-border"></div>
<div class="example-shadow"></div>
<div class="example-combined"></div>
I don't know what you are comparing to.
But a super simple way to have a border look inset when compared to other non-bordered items is to add a border: ?px solid transparent; to whatever items do not have a border.
It will make the bordered item look inset.

Simple SCSS solution with pseudo-elements
Live demo: https://codepen.io/vlasterx/pen/xaMgag
// Change border size here
$border-width: 5px;
.element-with-border {
display: flex;
height: 100px;
width: 100%;
position: relative;
background-color: #f2f2f2;
box-sizing: border-box;
// Use pseudo-element to create inset border
&:before {
position: absolute;
content: ' ';
display: flex;
border: $border-width solid black;
left: 0;
right: 0;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
border: $border-width solid black;
// Important: We must deduct border size from width and height
width: calc(100% - $border-width);
height: calc(100% - $border-width);
}
}
<div class="element-with-border">
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
</div>
You can do this:
.thing {
border: 2px solid transparent;
}
.thing:hover {
border: 2px solid green;
}
If box-sizing is not an option, another way to do this is just to make it a child of the sized element.
Demo
CSS
.box {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
display: inline-block;
margin-right: 5px;
}
.border {
border: 1px solid;
display: block;
}
.medium { border-width: 10px; }
.large { border-width: 25px; }
HTML
<div class="box">
<div class="border small">A</div>
</div>
<div class="box">
<div class="border medium">B</div>
</div>
<div class="box">
<div class="border large">C</div>
</div>
I know this is three years old, but thought it might be helpful to someone.
The concept is to use the :after (or :before) selector to position a border within the parent element.
.container{
position:relative; /*Position must be set to something*/
}
.container:after{
position:relative;
top: 0;
content:"";
left:0;
height: 100%; /*Set pixel height and width if not defined in parent element*/
width: 100%;
-webkit-box-sizing:border-box;
-moz-box-sizing:border-box;
-ms-box-sizing:border-box;
box-sizing:border-box;
border:1px solid #000; /*set your border style*/
}
You may use background-clip: border-box;
Example:
.example {
padding: 2em;
border: 10px solid rgba(51,153,0,0.65);
background-clip: border-box;
background-color: yellow;
}
<div class="example">Example with background-clip: border-box;</div>
So I was trying to have a border appear on hover but it moved the entire bottom bar of the main menu which didn't look all that good I fixed it with the following:
#top-menu .menu-item a:hover {
border-bottom:4px solid #ec1c24;
padding-bottom:14px !important;
}
#top-menu .menu-item a {
padding-bottom:18px !important;
}
I hope this will help someone out there.
Simpler + better | img tag | z-index | link image | "alt" attribute
I figured out a method where you do not need to use the image as a background image but use the img HTML tag inside the div, and using z-index of the div as a negative value.
Advantages:
The image can now become a link to a lightbox or to another page
The img:hover style can now change image itself, for example:
black/white to color, low to high opacity, and much more.
Animations of image are possible The image is more accessible because
of the alt tag you can use.
For SEO the alt tag is important for keywords
#borders {
margin: 10px auto;
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
position:relative;
box-shadow: inset 0 0 0 10px rgba(0, 255, 0, 0.5);
}
img {
position:absolute;
top:0;
bottom:0;
left:0;
right: 0;
z-index: -1;
}
<div id="borders">
<img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/RL5UH.png">

How to make the contents of an element with round-cornered border be also round-cornered?

http://jsfiddle.net/XjsWZ/
I'm trying to get the white box itself to have rounded corners in addition to its transparent gray border using CSS3. Is this possible?
html:
<div class="outer"><div class="inner"></div></div>
css:
.outer{
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
border: solid 10px;
border-radius: 5px;
border-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
}
.inner{
border-radius 5px;
}
Bonus question:
What's with those black squares in the corners on Chrome?
EDIT: I found a discussion of the black squares: Weird border opacity behavior in Webkit?
http://jsfiddle.net/XjsWZ/3/ maybe?
** edit **
I prefer JamWaffles':
.outer{
width: 290px;
height: 290px;
border: solid 10px;
border-radius: 15px;
border-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
background-clip:padding-box;
background-color:white;
padding: 5px;
}
Or if you want different looking corners there's a variant of Jedidiah's:
.outer{
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
background-clip:padding-box;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
border: solid 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
border-radius: 10px; /*if you reduce this below 9 you will get black squares in the corners, as of Chrome 14.0.835.163 m*/
}
.inner{
border-radius: 5px;
background-color: white;
height: 100%;
}
JamWaffles answer is cleaner but if you did want to achieve this with the nested div tags and a translucent border you could set a background colour on the outer div to match the border colour, you would also need to set background-clip: padding-box; so that the border and background do not overlap.
Example:
http://jsfiddle.net/XjsWZ/7/
css:
.outer{
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
background-clip:padding-box;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
border: solid 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
border-radius: 5px;
}
.inner{
border-radius: 5px;
background-color: white;
display:block;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
html:
<div class="outer"><div class="inner"></div></div>
This will change the look of the box a bit, but if the border radius is greater than the width of the border, you'll get inner rounded corners too.
Example here. I've removed the inner div as it's not needed for the example, as I have made the assumption you're nesting only to achieve the rounded effect.
In relation to the black squares in the corners, I don't get any at all with Chromium 12. You could try using a normal hex colour instead of an RGBA one. For your current colour, it's #808080, although I do appreciate the need for translucency; this is for a Facebox-style popup?
http://jsfiddle.net/XjsWZ/10/
It seems like this would be a good solution although it technically doesn't use a border, it maintains the correct alpha value while getting rid of the black squares in webkit:
css:
.outer{
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
background-clip:padding-box;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
border: solid 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.5);
border-radius: 5px;
}
.inner{
border-radius: 5px;
background-color: white;
display: block;
width: 280px;
height: 280px;
position: relative;
top: 10px;
left: 10px;
}
html:
<div class="outer"><div class="inner"></div></div>
