I have been pulling my hair out on this one all day, and I'm hoping someone smarter than me can figure it out.
I'm working on a new design for my site, and I've run into what appears to be a Firefox bug. I am using background-attachment: fixed for a gradient on the <body> element and then I have a full width <div> with another background image at the top of the page. Only in Firefox, there is a small white border at the top of the page and on either side of the <div> background.
I've tried at least a half-dozen different ways of coding the HTML and CSS, and they all produce the same results. Also, the white gap doesn't appear to be there in earlier versions of Firefox (I noticed it in version 6). I even did a clean reinstall of Firefox without any add-ons, and I'm still seeing it. Any ideas on what's causing this? Is my code wrong in some way?
See simplified test case here: http://mygemologist.com/bg-fixed-test.html
Note: This question may be related to: Crazy CSS Issue in Firefox Only - position fixed and background color, but I'm not sure on that.
Dominic, see https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677095 for this issue and https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=677095#c47 for a possible workaround.
Maybe use a smaller width image? It seems firefox has issues rendering it, when zooming it goes from properly displayed to having a 1-2px white border above it.
EDIT
When I change the body css to background-position: scroll the problem seems to go away
body {
background: url("http://www.mygemologist.com/resources/bg-gradient.jpg") repeat-x scroll left top transparent;
}

I've been probably overthinking this and trying out too many things incorrectly..
http://testserver.glow-berlin.de/kurzfilmwettbewerb
this is the website we're talking about.
At the bottom (right above the footer) you find an image that is supposed to stick to the bottom of the pink box.
Whenever I check it on mobile, the image offsets outside of the box. I built the section using the grid system but struggled with it, so I removed it for mobile... I just couldn't figure out the problem. Now – without the grid system – the same problem appears. On Android it seems to work fine but on iOS the image jumps out of the box again. When I fix it for iOS the problem appears on Android.
Any help with this?
The background-attachment: fixed; style on your div with the ID #gutfilmer is the problem on iOS.
'background-attachment: fixed has been disabled on iOs since it costs a lot on mobile browsers.
If you remove it the filmflap stays on the pink background.
try
#gutfilmer {
overflow:hidden;
}
This is one that absolutely confounds me. I have a site that uses a full-screen "splash screen", which the user then slides away to reveal the content beneath. In Chrome and Firefox, everything displays properly, but on Safari (both mobile and desktop), the div is split down the middle, the left half of the div is transparent (showing through to the content beneath) and only the right half is visible. All the content within it is still positioned as if it were full-screen, but it's all abruptly cut off halfway cross the screen, right down the middle of an image and a block of text. After several days rifling through the inspector I can't find any reason why Safari would be exhibiting this truly bizarre behavior—the split doesn't seem to follow any existing borders or boundaries of any elements, the inspector is acting as if the entire div is visible.
The only thing I can think of is: This issue seems to have appeared around the same time as I introduced some schmancy transform3d effects on the body, is Safari known for being unable to properly handle transform3d effects?
Since I have no idea which section of code could be causing this glitch, I'm not sure what code I would paste here, but the website is http://vanderstank.church. I apologize again for the broadness of this question, but I am unable to narrow it down any further. Thanks for any light you may be able to shed on this situation.
Solved this myself - it was related to the 3D rotation I added. Turns out I had applied the rotateY(6deg) effect not only to body but also to the #front div. I couldn't get that #front rotation to actually work right, so I'd given up on it... but forgotten to delete the line.
But because #front had a rotateY(6deg) on it while on the same plane/axis as body, it rendered as if the right half of it was "in front of" the body but the left half was "behind" the body. Still not sure why this only happened in Safari.
Remember to delete or comment out old code, guys!
I've got this weird problem which it seems that i simply can't solve (so far). The weird thing is that I've done almost exactly the same layout before for a navigation-bar, which was succesful.
In my navigation bar i have a button (not an actual <button> but a <div> which acts like one through jquery) to the farthest right of it, which has a background color and expands on click. The problem is that in IE and some resolutions of Chrome as well, there's a little white stripe shown beneath this div. Further this makes the child div that expands beneath it have a little gap between the button in the navigation bar and it self. This might not matter to some people (or most), but it's driving me mad - especially considering that i've done it before and used almost the very same css.
The <div> (to be more precise, it's the "quick-download" div) is set to a height of 70px and line-height of 70px, and the same goes for its siblings (and some of them less). However, the parent div shows up as 70.4px in height, which is bugging me out. I've tried numerous "trial-and-error" solutions/attempts, but with no success at all.
EDIT:
An image of the problem can be seen here (i changed background to red to make it more apparent): http://imgur.com/fya0duQ
EDIT 2:
The white space beneath the quick-download div appears only to be showing in IE and Safari on my compute right now.
EDIT 3:
Link to website is removed as the problem is corrected and therefore no longer is useful.
Assuming you mean the "Quick Download" button...
The height of the navigation bar is 75px and the height of the button is 70px, creating a 5px-tall gap.
The reason your navigation bar is 75px is because your image on the left is 60px tall with margin-top: 15px;. If you want the button to be flush with the bottom of the navigation bar, you can either increase the height of the button, reduce the margin-top of the <img id="aktie-skat-logo" ...>, or reduce the image's height.
The CSS in question:
#aktie-skat-logo {
margin-top: 15px;
display: block;
}
I've actually tracked the problem down my self - however, only after checking the problem across different browsers, after posting in here. The hint came in my old version of safari and IE, and didn't show in Chrome - which is consistent with "EDIT 2" in the original post. I found that some links we're 0.4px higher than others, but only 2/5 links.
The problem apparently stems from inserting a FontAwesome icon using the css ::after selector to links that has "children" (subpages). After removing this or making these icons position:absolute the problem is solved.
As to why insering these using ::after I have no idea. The ::after element had display:inline so shouldn't have broken too much in my opinion.
I'm sorry that I might have wasted your time checking my problem and answering, but even though I found the solution my self, it was a help posting in here (wouldn't have found it otherwise). I hope this might help some other people at some point.
I have a html layout with a navigation bar at the top and a main content area below it, with a left and a right area. The top bar has a background gradient with a hard stop in it. The main content's right area (sidebar) has a background color that should line up with the gradient stop of of the navigation area, at 75%.
See this for a simplified version of my layout. In Firefox and Safari this renders fine, but Chrome puts the gradient stop a little further than it should. I tried to use pixel values instead of percentages, but the behaviour stayed the same.
Any idea why this is happening, and suggested workarounds? Thanks!
Specially with modern browsers that deals with anti-aliasing in so different ways. What i have done was a js fix, (which wouldn't be good for your code :D) also you would have to add a custom padding for each element. But you'll need to hire a freelancer to do it for you, because it would take a while to complete (browser targeting, getting each element, adding padding for each element...)
if u can post the code it would be simple for more possibility.however i am looking for more solutions.
See this link:

Displays fine in IE/Chrome but in Firefox (6.0.1) there is a 1px border around the blue header.
If I add a background color to the #header-content, the 1px white border dissapears. This seems crazy.
I cannot work out what is going on with this and the related page I am trying to build depends on not having a background colour for the 2nd fixed container.
Here is an image of the problem I see:

It is layout rendering bug in Firefox. This bug was already reported and as I know it is fixed in next release. Only solution I know is to use opacity:0.9999999. It would render correctly as opacity:1, but fix this annoying bug.
Try #header { opacity:0.9999999; }
Bugzilla : Bug 677095
EDIT: Firefox 8 is not affected with this bug and setting opacity to 0.9999999 will result in weird border around the element, so I prefer not to use it anymore
Browsers add different defaults if you don't "reset" the CSS, that may be what is going on here.
If the z-index value of your #header-content is not greater than 10, then the bug is fixed. If it's 11 or greater then I can see the mysterious gap too.
Really weird.
I cannot reproduce in FF 6.0.1; however, you can probably work around this with
background-color: transparent;
on the #header-content, or white if you don't want it being see through.
This should still give the fix you mentioned while remaining a blank div as required.
Update:
Ok thanks for the screenshot, still cannot reproduce, this time with ff 6.0.2 - I had a look around after noticing I can reproduce a similar issue on different zoom levels.
Blog post explaining the zoom border bug, which includes this test page. I am not sure if this is involved, seems similar but not the same thing, zoom bug will take off a slice of the whole page including the border of #header-content.
As for your comments around transparent, you can use it and still supply a background image, does this not work for you?
