Can anyone help me troubleshoot my website?
http://www.andrewstonyer.co.uk/test/
My problem:
On IE8/7 if you click on a thumbnail (only 'Pulse' and 'Time Within The Hour' are wired in right now) an overlay appears with detail of that piece.
What should happen, and does in Gecko/Webkit, is that the overlay contains a table with a heading, a scaled, centered image, and a nav menu. There is a toggle for text, which pushes up the image cell and makes the image smaller, keeping proportion. I know the overlay looks like ass right now- those are just placeholder colours :)
On IE, the image doesn't fit perfectly in the table cell, which means that everything is pushed down outside the window. I can't see the nav menu. It appears to render the image at actual pixel size (in the CSS, the img class element is set to 100% height).
The text cell is toggled with jquery, when toggled on in IE, it doesn't appear to 'squeeze' the above cell, which is what I want to happen.
Could any experts help?

Jon
Adding width:100% to the ov-image class in your CSS fixes this. I guess the other browsers honor display:block even for image scaling, but on IE, you have to declare the width for it to scale.
Additionally remove height:100% from the same class.

I have encountered a strange bug using my OpenCart website in Chrome. The product images are not showing up but I see the white area where they should come.
If a product doesn't have an image it's aligned to the left but in this case I can see the white area where the picture normally is.
And here's the crazy part, if I click on inspect element, suddenly the image appears.
Some css code
.product-list .image {
float: left;
margin-right: 10px;
overflow: auto;
}
In the CSS you need to set the width and height attributes.
That is weird. Regardless, things to check:
Z-index: The outer box that surrounds the image might be "above" the image itself. Add z-index to the image with a value of 9999 to check
Position: if it's parent container or god knows what else has a weird position it could be affecting where the child element, in this case an image is appearing.
Disable JS - Javascript might be causing an issue here, try disabling it to check.
Also, when you use chrome dev tools, you are technically "hovering" on the image. And you say it suddenly appears. So I'd take a look at your :hover rules as they apply to images. A lot of sites will use a sprite technique that shows one image in normal state, and then shift the background to a different part of the same image on hover. Your normal state could be empty and the hover then moves the bkgd position to the image you want.
Let me know how this turns out.
More scenarios to replicate this issue
1. Close inspect if not already opened.
2. Resize inspect if already opened.
3. Resize browser window.
Just to follow up on this issue, Mary's answer is the correct one, but for our circumstances it was important not to set a width and height in order to maintain responsiveness. But apparently setting width and height to auto works just as well, even though it makes no difference in appearance.
So, since opening the Web Inspector resizes the page in some cases, you should look into:
resize handlers on JavaScript side that might be causing your images to show up
media queries that satisfy certain width and only show images then on CSS side
Picture element having media queries that
aren‘t covering the width you are viewing this with.
For me this was the Picture element having a gap in its media attribute definitions (<source media=(min-width: 1824px)">).
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.
How do I get that div to fill the entire portion of the header of the
screen regardless if I zoom in or out?
simply make the add css with width:100% && margin:auto

I'm trying to create my first responsive website. For this, I'm including an image. This image has a caption which should be displayed in a transparent overlay. However because opacity settings are passed to child elements, I have removed the text from the container.
I cant get the overlay to display, at all (because it has no content inside it). I cant really add a fixed height as I want to image to respond to changes in browser size. How can I ensure this is displayed?
Thank you,
J
Edit, also what would the best way to scale the overlay as the browser resizes. I'm unsure if this approach is even possible.
First of all, you can use an RGBA background ( background: rgba(0,0,0,.5); ) instead of using opacity.
Secondly, you need explicitly set a width for your span.figcaption (you can also do that by specifying both left and right offset properties)
Perhaps this demo http://dabblet.com/gist/2778608 might also help you (image can be of any size - resize the browser window to see how everything resizes).
Adding the following rules to your existing sample effectively stretches the .figcaption elements to fully cover the .figure, fiddle:
.figure {position:relative;}
/*these could be different so that the overlay appears larger than the caption*/
span.figcaption {position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0;}
p.figcaption {position:absolute;top:0;right:0;bottom:0;left:0;}
You can arbitrarily adjust the values to a % setting so that the caption appears centered etc.
BTW, you know that your implementation is not yet liquid, right?
I am currently creating a one page website, however I am having an issue, I need the scroll text underneath the fixed element however you can see the text that should be dissapearing under the fixed position element, as the element as a back-ground, which is a transparent png, is there any way I can hide text as it scrolls underneath the fixed position element.
Here is a fiddle of what I have, so far
JS FIDDLE
Ideally I am wanting it so that when text moves behind the box with red borders it is not visisble, without the need for a background color.
I have visited your website and stolen some images to better understand what you are trying to accomplish.. Assuming i'm correct in the assumption you do not want a solid background on the header because it would mess with your pages background....
you can use multiple backgrounds...
see your demo
You will need something in #banner that will hide the text. From the css it looks like there is supposed to be a background image in that block, but it is not showing up.
The header is transparent as set in your css reset, so a color or image will be necessary if you want the text to be hidden. Otherwise, it's like moving the text behind a piece of glass...you will still see the text unless you have something to actually cover it.
I suspect if there was a working background image on the header, it would block the text where it wasn't transparent. When I add a background-color it achieves that effect.
I am working on my portfolio and I am having an issue with the project description shifting the images on the left downward when the browser resize. A picture of the issue here: click here When you resize the browser the text will shift over and move the images down. I've tried setting min-width but that doesn't help the text nor the image div to make sure it doesn't resize at a certain point.
Here is a sample link to the page itself: [click here][2]
I tried adding min-widths to a image element but that doesn't work either. I do not want to use absolute position as it will overlap on top on resize. Any thoughts or suggestions?
You have an image that is 1052px wide, which is in a UL element that has a margin-left of 1.5em. Your description box is 350px. Basically your #imagewrapper div needs to be equal to or wider than all of these elements.
Right now that's about 1422px. It will change if the effective font size for your UL.imagewrap-pad changes.
That's a pretty wide web site. You probably should make it a bit narrower if you're making it for general viewing, especially with all the tablets etc out there now.
Anyway, the code you want is
#imagewrapper
{
width:1422px;
margin:0 auto;
}
The second line makes it center on the screen.
P.S - get Firebug for Firefox, or use similar tools in chrome. They let you endlessly experiment with styles to find out what works for you.
To solve the problem just set the "width" property in #imagewrapper :
#imagewrapper {
width: 1430px;
}
Have You tried setting up width attr on the parent element to around 1800px?
div#imagewrapper {
width:1800px;
}
It will put a scroll bar at the bottom of Your browser, but if You want to put such a big image beside that text then You do need a lot of space. Just keep in mind that it won't fit in users monitors.
To make it look nice I guess You should apply that attribute to the body tag.
