Move main content over header photo - css

Design question here. How can I make the #main-wrapper slide over the #single-carousel on the following page: http://duijnisveld.wpengine.com/
Right now it moves up when scrolling, I need the carousel to stay put and make the main wrapper slide over it when scrolling down.
giving .header-foto-wrapper position: fixed and #main-wrapper position: relative gives unexpected behaviour for me, I'm clearly missing something important.
*note, in the url, the .header-foto-wrapper does not have the position fixed as it breaks the layout and it's a live site for the client to see.
Thanks!

You'll need to apply width. Things go a little wonky when a container calculates width once you pull it out of the content flow. A width:100% will fill the page width. You'll also want to move the content area down and apply a background color.
.header-foto-wrapper {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
}
#main-wrapper {
position: relative;
top: 100%;
background: #fff;
}

By setting the position as absolute.
.wrapper {
position: absolute;
left: 100px;
top: 150px;
}

footer static positioned at the bottom of page

I'm using laravel 5.5 and need a footer to be at the bottom of every page.
Currently I have the footer in app.blade.php along with a nav bar and the content coming from other .blade files using yields #yield('content')
the app.blade file has
html, body {
height: 100%;
}
and the footer is
footer {
position: static;
bottom: 0px;
}
When inspecting the page the html and body are 100% height but the footer is just hanging out with the content and not shifting to the bottom of the page.
Are there any larvel related styles that could be interfering with the positioning?
I don't think laravel styling has anything to do with the problem. Setting the positionproperty to static isn't going to give you the results you're looking for, as static is the default position value for almost every html element. You could set it to absolute, fixed or sticky and depending on your choice you might need to set the bottom property on your footer to 0px.
This CSS-Tricks article should give you a better idea of how you want to implement the position and bottom properties on your footer.
Here's an implementation using the fixed value on the footer and a relative value on the body element.
You can also view this codeply project and experiment with changing the footer's position value.
html, body {
height: 100%;
background-color: red;
position: relative;
}
footer {
position: fixed;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
height: 10%;
width: 100%;
background-color: green;
}

Image causing white space and horizontal scrollbar

By ghosting my CSS elements I can see that my mouth image is creating addtional white space but I dont know how to remove it. I've tried hiding the overflow in the hope that it might work but it hasnt? Link to codepen
.mouth{
top: 268px;
left: 273px;
position: relative;
overflow-x:hidden;
}
Use absolute positioning instead.
.trumpframe{
position: relative;
}
.mouth {
position: absolute;
}
You'll need to tweak the top and left values since I can't see the image it has to overlap.

How to show an image below a div both horizontally centered on the page?

I have this layout:
Code here: http://m6000225.ferozo.com/test/
I need the blue and brown image to lay below the main content div, and both be aligned regardless of the window width, both centered horizontally.
I implemented a css tip I read on this site, which is having a div with absolute position and left: 50% and an img inside with relative position and left: -50%.
It works fine, except for the fact that it pushes the page width to the right, as you can see in the screenshot, the scrollbar can be seen.
3rd party lib solutions like jQuery are welcome, but I'd prefer plain CSS.
PS: I also need something similar below the footer, but I guess using the same solution with a negative bottom value should work, right?
PS2: Extending the blue-brown strip to both borders of the window is no problem as I already used another div with absolute position and background-repeat: repeat-x.
The scroll bar is appearing because of the left: 50%; on the class .header-image. You should drop that altogether. Since that tag has a width set, when you push it over 50% it falls outside the window forcing the scroll bar to appear.
After you drop the left call, you should then set the width of that div to the width of the window, not a specific value in pixels. Use Width: 100%. So, that tag should look like:
.header-image {
height: 245px;
position: absolute;
top: 40px;
width: 100%;
z-index: -1;
}
After that, you'll need to re-center the image contained within the div. To do that, instead of using positions (which rely on set boundaries), give the element auto margins. Use :
.header-image img {
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
That will recenter the image. Please let me know if this is what you were looking for!
Per Paulie_D's suggestion:
.header-image {
position:absolute;
z-index: -1;
top: 40px;
width: 100%;
height: 245px;
background-image: url('header.png');
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
That did it.

Absolute positioned DIV element spreads over and blocks buttons, how to hide the invisible block?

I have an absolute positioned logo on the bottom left of my website... BUT the problem is that ive positioned it to stick to the right of the page but it leaves a invisible barrier to the left of it that spreads across the page. So lets say a link is placed in alignment with that footer element, I won't be able to click it, the absolute positioned layer is spreading over it (even though nothings in it)
Heres my CSS for the logos position:
#basemenu {
margin-right: auto;
position: fixed;
bottom:0px;
width: 100%;
height: 40px;
text-align:right;
right:1%;
}
It sounds like you have an img inside of a <div id='basemenu'></div>. Is that right?
We could really use a block of HTML if you wouldn't mind posting it.
What I don't understand is why you can't target the logo itself with a bit of CSS like this:
#basemenu img {
height: 40px;
position: fixed;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
Use the following block property display : none; to hide the block

Hiding overflow not working

Heyo, I'm using a 2000px width image as a background for a 960px width webpage. I am trying to make it so it doesn't show a horizontal scrollbar when a part of the image is to the right of what's visible, but what I'm trying to do is not working for me.
Two IDs are involved. One is 'bg' which has the background image as its background and is positioned where I want it, while the other is 'bg_holder' which contains only 'bg' and which I tried to use to neatly cover the visible web page area and hide its overflow so the part of the background image that is jutting out wouldn't cause a scrollbar. But this does not appear work, as a scrollbar is created when there is a part of the image to the right of the visible web page (but not when it's to the left).
Is there anything wrong with this CSS snippet? Could something outside of this snippet be the source of the problem? Is there another approach I can take?
#bg_holder {
position: absolute;
overflow: hidden;
min-width: 960px;
top: 0px;
left: 0px;
right: 0px;
height: 100%;
}
#bg {
background: url(../img/bg.jpg);
position: absolute;
height: 1050px;
width: 2000px;
margin-left: -1366px;
left: 50%;
z-index: -1;
}
To answer your question, by positioning #bg absolutely, you take it out of the document flow / out of it's parent element, so the overflow:hidden has no effect.
As an additional comment, you can position the background image exactly where you want (x, y) when you put it directly in #bg_holder, there doesn't seem to be any need to put the background in a separate div. As far as I can tell at least, but I haven't seen the rest of your code and don't know what you want to achieve exactly.
