I want to display two different background images per device, have a code, but it doesn't work properly...
where is a bug?
#media (max-width: 720px) {
body {
margin: 0;
background-color: #ff0000;
background-image: url('img/bg1.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top left;
background-size: 100% auto;
}
}
#media (min-width: 721px) {
body {
margin: 0;
background-color: #303441;
background-image: url('img/bg2.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top left;
background-size: 100% auto;
}
}
Check the path to your first image. My images work as it should.
And I agree with Dan Weber, the code can be simplified:
body {
margin: 0;
background-color: #ff0000;
background-image: url('http://glebkema.ru/images/2015_09_20_iphone_155_x400.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top left;
background-size: 100% auto;
}
#media (min-width: 721px) {
body {
background-color: #303441;
background-image: url('http://glebkema.ru/images/2015_09_26_iphone_198_x400.jpg');
}
}
Just curious, why are you mixing min-width and max-width?
Usually, max-width is used when targeting desktop first and then working down to mobile.
min-width is used to target mobile first and work your way up to desktop.

I've changed the exact screen size a bit since 1px is harder to get difference on when resizing, but same concept. Run this in full page mode.
So, everything lower than 720 (mobile first) gets first image by default. When screen hits 720 it changes and then again at 820 and up.
body {
margin: 0;
background-image: url('http://www.dreamstime.com/static/free2/257779.jpg');
background-color: #FFF;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: top left;
background-size: 100% auto;
}
#media (min-width: 720px) {
body {
background-color: #ff0000;
background-image: url('http://pic.1fotonin.com//data/wallpapers/7/WDF_562760.jpg');
}
}
#media (min-width: 820px) {
body {
background-color: #303441;
background-image: url('http://images.all-free-download.com/images/wallpapers_large/old_farm_wallpaper_landscape_nature_wallpaper_1439.jpg');
}
}
Here is good youtube video explaing difference between min-width and max-width.

The website has a section, which has a background image. In the desktop website to make it look good, background image was made fixed so that it can have parallax effect. But in the mobile website, parallax does not make sense. So I wanted to remove the fixed in the mobile view. Here is the code I have tried.
<section class="girl-cover-photo">
</section>
.girl-cover-photo {
height: 730px;
background: url("../img/girl-cover.jpg") fixed;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
.girl-cover-photo .girl-cover-photo {
background: url("../img/girl-cover.jpg") relative;
}
}
But somehow the parallax shows up in the mobile view. Any pointers on what to do to fix this?
instead background: url('../img/girl-cover.jpg') relative;
use background: url('../img/girl-cover.jpg') scroll;
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/background-attachment
.girl-cover-photo{
height: 730px;
background: url('http://media02.hongkiat.com/baby_photography/baby_photography.jpg') fixed;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 768px){
.girl-cover-photo{
background: url('http://media02.hongkiat.com/baby_photography/baby_photography.jpg') relative;
}
}
<div class="girl-cover-photo"></div>
Try this
I'm trying very hard to resize my background images with my personal website: calebcharles.com.
I can't tell if this is something that needs to be done with a background-size: fix in CSS or if I need to create alternate images for media-query based fixes. I'm a new designer so please go easy! I'd sincerely appreciate a nudge in the right direction. Here is an example of one of the sections of my site:
h1.slide1 {
padding-top: 10%;
color: white;
background-image: url("images/rainbow.jpg");
background-position: 50%;
margin: auto;
padding-bottom: 10%;
text-align: center;
font-family: 'Amatic SC', cursive;
font-size: 400%;
background-attachment: fixed;
background-size: 100% 100%;
-webkit-background-size:100% 100%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
full site is www.calebcharles.com. The backgrounds look awful on mobile devices. Please help!
What you have is a background that is spread to 100%. The background itself is a widescreen 1920x730 image while mobile resolutions are generally portrait.
Look into media queries and have multiple background resolutions pre-rendered.
.slide1 {
background-image: url('images/rainbow.jpg');
}
#media (min-width:768px) {
.slide1 {
background-image: url('images/rainbow-768.jpg');
}
}
#media (min-width:1920px) {
.slide1 {
background-image: url('images/rainbow-1920.jpg');
}
}
#media (min-width:2560px) {
.slide1 {
background-image: url('images/rainbow-2560.jpg');
}
}
My site looks fine when viewed on Desktop browser, but on mobile device the background image messes everything up and responsiveness is not achieved.
Site in question: http://www.victorfrolov.com
here's my code for the background image in body in css:
body {
/* Location of the image */
background-image: url('../img/image.jpg');
/* Background image is centered vertically and horizontally at all times */
background-position: center center;
/* Background image doesn't tile */
background-repeat: no-repeat;
/* Background image is fixed in the viewport so that it doesn't move when
the content's height is greater than the image's height */
background-attachment: fixed;
/* This is what makes the background image rescale based
on the container's size */
background-size: cover;
/* Set a background color that will be displayed
while the background image is loading */
background-color: #464646;
background-color:#FFF;
/*font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;*/
/*font-family: 'Open Sans', sans-serif;*/
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
color:#3E404B;
}
This is what it looks like on a desktop (and shrinking/enlarging the page it works fine):
and here's on mobile:
and here is the parallax code, maybe this is the issue?
body,
html {
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
p {
margin: 0;
padding: 10px 5%;
}
.slide {
box-sizing: border-box;
height: auto;
min-height: 100%;
min-width: 100%;
background-size: cover;
box-shadow: inset 0 10px 10px rgba(0,0,0,.3);
}
Please help. Thanks!
#media screen
and (device-width: 320px)
and (device-height: 640px)
and (orientation: portrait) {
body { width: 100%; max-width: 100%; height: auto;
}
}
Or you may need to set a class for your img in your. html and use .test class with the same media query, then use same size, but set (orientation: landscape)
I am trying to create a Reddit page using CSS. My problem is scaling. I want to make an object, .side, smaller in length. On my 1080p monitor, it looks great, but when I zoom in or out it will not scale with the browser. It is also too large on mobile.
Here is the code:
#header {
background: url(%%rtv6a%%);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: -3px 24px;
height: 130px;
}
#header-bottom-left
{
position: absolute;
bottom: 0;
}
div.side div.spacer:nth-of-type(5)
{
background:url(%%tangoglobe4%%) top center no-repeat;
padding: 250px 0 0;
margin-top: 20px;
}
div.side div.spacer:nth-of-type(5):hover
{
background:url(%%goglobal4%%) top center no-repeat;
padding: 250px 0 0;
margin-top: 20px;
transition: .6s;
}
body, .side, .titlebox form.toggle, .leavemoderator, .icon-menu a, .side .spacer
{
background:url(%%whiteticks%%);
}
.sitetable
{
background:url(%%ticks%%);
}
.morelink .nub
{
display: none;
}
.sitetable
{
max-width: 83%;
border-color: #5C5C5C;
border-style:solid;
border-width:1px;
}
Here is what I want it to look like: http://i.imgur.com/CM1Ejgp.jpg
When I scale it: http://i.imgur.com/HGsnSvD.png
You will notice the grey box get farther and father away. What can I do to fix this?
Sorry, I am new to coding.
You might want to look into media queries:
Media queries look at the capability of the device, and can be used to
check many things, such as:
width and height of the browser window
width and height of the device
orientation (is the tablet/phone in landscape or portrait mode?)
resolution
and much more
You can use media queries to set sizes and widths of text or containers in CSS depending on the size of the browser. Eg:
#media (max-width: 600px) {
.facet_sidebar {
display: none;
}
}
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/CSS/Media_queries
I have an image background for a div that I want to show on different devices, The problem is that I have to give height of the image in order to fit it correctly. Now on different phones, I have to adjust the height with different px. forexample on iphones 65px works for portrait mode but not for landscape and etc. Is there a way that the div just gets resized in height to cover 100% of the background image?
here is my code
<style>
div.testing {
height: 95px;
background-image: url(/myimageurl);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: 100%;
}
#media screen and (max-width: 320px) {
/* iphone portrait */
div.testing {
height: 65px;
}
}
#media screen and (min-width: 321px) and (max-width: 480px) {
/* iphone portrait */
div.testing {
height: 80px;
}
}
</style>
<div class="testing"> </div>
You could use background-size: cover;
.thing {
background: url(images/bg.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}
but why are you using a background-image? if you can use a regular image, you could do it like this:
.thing {
width: 100%;
max-width: [your biggest width];
}
.thing img {
display: inline-block;
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
ALSO
I would recommend flipping your mindset on the max-width and start small screen first, using min-width and getting bigger.
And you don't really need div.testing - it can just be .testing
And if you are using a background image for a good reason... you should investigate making the div -
.thing {
height: 0;
padding-bottom: 30%; /* play with this */
}
This will keep the proportions... but it's only useful in specific cases.
A complete jsfiddle with an actual image would be useful.
Good luck!
Nest your div inside the background div and set the height to 100%
