I can't get this simple slideshow to re-size correctly. When I shrink down the window, the image width compresses, but the height does not, and I want the height/width ratio to remain the same as the viewport shrinks. I know the fault lies somewhere in my CSS, and but I can't track down the issue. Any help appreciated.
Just use height: auto
.slides img {
height: auto;
/* Rest of you code */
}

I have an image which width should be as large as possible and I want it's height to not exceed the height of the parent while also maintaining the aspect ratio of 16:9. The issue right now is, it works well till the screen size is 1591px, if it gets bigger than that, the height exceeds and the vertical scroll bar appears. I don't want that behavior. How can I achieve that?
the scrollBar appears because of the overflow you can do 2 things
use the "overflow: hidden;"
body{
overflow: hidden;
}
you can use max-width to determine the max-width of the element and set it on both of the elements
I hope it was helpful 😁
UPDATE: the original answer assumed from the question that the image was an HTML img. The solution was to set width to 100% [of its container] and height to 70vh and use object-fit.
However, it is not an img it is a canvas.
The required aspect ratio is known to be 16 / 9. This snippet therefore sets the max-width to 100% (of whatever is the container) and the max-height to 70vh.
This way there can never be any overflow and the canvas will be as big as it can be within those constraints.
body {
width: 100vw;
margin: 0;
}
canvas {
max-width: 100%;
max-height: 70vh;
aspect-ratio: 16 / 9;
background: green;
}
<canvas width="1600" height="900"></canvas>
I have a gallery (responsiveslides.js) that is launched within a jquery mobile popup that overlays the window. The desired look is to have the gallery scale based on the browser window.
Here is a stripped down working example of my setup and issue: https://jsfiddle.net/02ds2trp/
What I'm trying to accomplish is to have the popup div height match the scaled image. The blue background is ok on the sides of the image but I don't want it on the bottom/top. ie. the orange border should be tight to the image. Also the popup div shouldn't grow more then 70% of the screen.
Right now I have .popupGalleryBannerDIV with height:70% but that is growing it too big, removing that makes the image gallery have no height.
.popupGalleryBannerDIV {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
background: #2795EE;
top: 15%;
left: 0px;
height: 70%; /* how to I make this dynamic? */
max-height: 70%;
}
Note: I've been playing with this for a week so some css markup on fiddle might be from failed attempts.
I'm having trouble figuring out how to make this work any help would be appreciated.
Edit:
Add some picture to help understand what I'm trying to do.

Part of the problem, is that your slide is using a background image which has no default height/width on it's own. It's the content that dictates how much space should be filled up.
My suggestion is to use an tag instead or have some js function that will appropriately size the viewport height to match the image's ratio based on the viewport width.
This is how I ended up coding the size change:
function gallerySize() {
//set height of content to 70%
$('.popupGalleryBannerDIV').css("height", "70%");
//check img size compaired to it, of large set image height to height of content
var imgHeight = $('.popupGalleryBannerDIV').find('img').height();
//else if height is smaller set conect to height of img
if (imgHeight < $('.popupGalleryBannerDIV').height()){
$('.popupGalleryBannerDIV').css("height", imgHeight);
}
}
I have a set of logos of variable size. I've set them all up at the same height of 50px with a width of auto:
.img-logo {
width: auto;
height: 50px;
}
This works fine until the window is resized. When the window is resized, wider logos flow outside of their container.
I would like the logos to shrink to fit their container width. I have tried to achieve this with max-width:
.img-logo {
max-width: 100%;
width: auto;
height: 50px;
}
This works but the aspect ratio is compromised due to the height property remaining 50px.
Any ideas?
With a fixed height and variable width either of the below can happen.
The img gets stretched to accommodate the variable width and skew the aspect ratio.
The img gets cropped (overflow:hidden) by the parent but the aspect ration is kept intact.
So you can make the img responsive too. But then it wont have the constant height, while keeping the aspect ratio intact.
I think it's impossible to keep its size when the window is too small and you didn't want to change ths size of image. Why not try #media,which can provide different css styles in different conditions.
I've set the background of my footer to background-repeat: repeat-x but for some reason when I zoom in, the background stops repeating... The blue bar you see should be repeating the whole width of the window according to the CSS rules (and he does, execpt when I start zooming in)
Is this normal? If yes, how can I prevent or pass by this. If not, what could be the cause?
EDIT:
I just figured out if you set the width of the body to e.g. 1,000px or 5,000px the footer starts expanding, but when I zoom out to the normal size, the site is extremely large... And width: 100% didn't work out either.
Give the footer a width of 100% and then give it a min-width equal to the width of your content. So if your content has a fixed width of 960px for example, your css would be:
#content { width: 960px; }
#footer { width: 100%; min-width: 960px; }
I have an image in the header of my website. I'd like to use a CSS property to make it stretch across the width of the browser, so that it reacts to the user adjusting the browser window size, and so that the vertical axis of the image is scaled accordingly. Is this actually something that can be done?
Percentages will keep an image the whole width, and will update the image on browser resizing.
If you want the image to always be stretch, you can use:
img {
width:100%;
}
However, that can easily make the image look like total crap. A safer way might be:
img {
max-width:100%;
}
Either way will get the image changing sizes with browser resizing. However, the second won't stretch the image past it's natural size, so it doesn't look deformed.
You can set the width and height properties to percentages (for example, a width of 100% would cause the image to stretch across your page). This can be done using CSS.
CSS can certainly stretch an image (or, at least, I've used it to do so in Firefox at the folowing url: http://www.davidrhysthomas.co.uk/mindez/borked.html):
img {height: 100%;
width: 100%;
min-height: 600px;
min-width: 800px;
}
for example.
But...I think for it to react to the viewport resizing that JS would be probably your better-friend.
Here, give this a go, just apply this CSS style to the element that contains the image. In this example the image is on the background of the page body:
body
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
background: url(images/YOUR-IMAGE.JPG) no-repeat left top;
background-size: 100%;
}
This will maximise your image across the element. Resizing the window will scale the image to fit the browsers new window size
