I have 2 columns separated by 2 container.
In the first column I have set an element <div class="overlay"></div>
that should cover and overlay ONLY the first column.
I set the following css property on the class overlay.
.overlay {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.8);
}
However, it doesn't just cover only the first column. It also cover the other second column.
I don't wanna set a fix width and fix height because I want to overlay the whole container. And I might run into issues soon if I do fix width.
Here is the sample fiddle of what I have so far..
Try adding this CSS
.container-1{
overflow: hidden;
position: relative;
}

I am not sure what you are trying to do with the overlay. But you can try this code:
.overlay {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.8);
}
The relative position will force it to stay within the container. The problem is that bc your overlay has nothing in it, it won't show up.
This is what I done to make it show up -> https://jsfiddle.net/908zodam/ (i just added a blank character in the overlay.)

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;
}

please see link below
as you can see there's a text on header (header is an image)
the text is:
mail#yahoo.com (this text is a part of image)
I convert that part of header image to link with below code
<div id="hw"><div id="header"><img src="test.jpg" /></div></div>
and this is #link
#ResponsiveLink {
width: 267px;
height:29px;
display:block;
position:absolute;
top:100px;
margin-left:413px;
}
how can we make that link be responsive in other devices? for example when browser is narrow position of the a tag with #ResponsiveLink id changes but i want it be fixed over my text.
The best way I know, is not to put a big part of your screen as an image. On the other hand you probably don't want to cut the image into several separate images. So, I suggest using CSS Sprit.
After separating the image, you can put the parts beside each other using float, clear, and percentage widths, or use a framework like bootstrap.
If you still want to use the image as a whole header, in a single HTML tag which don't recommend at all, using percentage top for your #ResponsiveLink would work. You should just add width: 100% to all its parents: header, hw, and wrapper.
Following the comments:
#ResponsiveLink {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FF0000;
display: block;
height: 0;
left: 58%;
margin-left: 0;
margin-top: 7%;
padding-bottom: 3%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 25%;
}
This will fix the problem because of the difference between percentages of position and margin, top percentage is calculated using first absolute parent's height but margin and padding percentages are calculated using parent's width. There's still a problem caused by the max width which you can fix adding a wrapper inside your #head with a width of 100% and no max width.
The other try of using floats and separated images have too many problems to write here, sorry.
What you're currently building isn't a sustainable solution and you should definitely see other replies on how to improve your site layout.
However, if you need a temporary solution, the following CSS changes will work on your current page:
#header {
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 980px;
position: relative;
}
#ResponsiveLink {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FF0000;
display: block;
height: 30%;
left: 60%;
position: absolute;
right: 12%;
top: 37%;
}
On my wordpress Website Homepage I inserted a horizontal grey strip containing social network links. I want this to touch the edges of the page over-flowing out of the body, how can I achieve this?
This is the code I used;
.outer {
float: left;
width: 100%;
height: 80px;
background-color: #f8f8f8;
position: relative;
}
The .outer rule isn't the one you'll need to adjust. Looking in the 'styles.css' document find the rule that you've written for .socialstrip. (change the . to a #)
#socialstrip {
height: 80px;
background-color: #f8f8f8;
position: absolute;
left:0;
}
You won't need to do anything else because the class .outer that's applied to it already gives you a width of 100%. Be aware that when you give this element a position of 'absolute' the element below it will not recognize that the #socialstrip element is above it. It will appear to lay over top of it. To fix this just add more margin to the top of the .bottomstrip element. Like this:
.bottomstrip{
margin-top: 200px;
}
That should give you what you are looking for.
I am relatively new to front-end dev so a bit lost as to how i can go about this. I created a container that contains a slider and some images. My supervisor has a huge screen so obviously there will be empty space at the bottom of the screen. So he doesn't want that. Instead he wants the container to be centered horizontally and vertically based on the size of the user's screen.
How can I do this properly with as minimal code as possible? I believe there is jQuery plugin but wanted to see if there is a better way or if doing this makes sense at all or not?
Due to the flow-based nature of CSS, without Javascript this can only be done if the vertical size of the centered element is fixed, by applying a position:absolute' andtop:50%` within a fixed container, and then use negative margin to offset the container. Click here for JSFiddle Sample.
Alternatively the same effect can be reached by using display:table-cell, but that's kind of messy and loses you a lot of flexibility. Sample already supplied in the other answer here so I'll save myself the effort :)
You can do it easily using a vertical-align property.
Since vertical-align works the desired way way only in a table cell, this trick with display property can give you the desired effect.
#yourDiv {
// give it a size
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
padding: 0; margin: 0;
}
html {
display: table;
}
body {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
See a fiddle with demo.
Try this:
HTML:
<div class="center"></div>
CSS:
.center {
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
margin-left: -150px;
margin-top: -150px;
background-color: red;
}

Exactly Center an Image/Div Horizontally and Vertically:
http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/exactly-center-an-imagediv-horizontally-and-vertically/
Hey guys I simply cannot get this to work.
I have some content that is centred on the page using the margin: auto; "trick".
In this content I have an image. I need to make a color bar coming under the image continuing out to the sides of the browser. On the right side I need it to look like its coming up onto the image.
I have made this picture to try an graphically show what I mean: image
As you can see the bar runs from the left to the right side of the browser. The centred image is just placed on top of it and then an image positioned on the top of the image. But I haven't been able to get this working. Any one who would give it a go?
I tried positioning the bar relative and z-index low. This worked but the bar keep jumping around in IE 7-8-9. Centring the image wasn't easy either and placing that smaller image on top was even harder. It wouldn't follow the browser if you resized it. The problem here is that the user have to be able to upload a new picture so I cant just make a static image.
Please help I am really lost here
EDIT:
Tried the example below but when I run the site in IE 7-8-9 I have different results. link
I have made a jsFiddle which should work in Chrome and IE7-9: http://jsfiddle.net/7gaE9/
HTML
<div id="container">
<div id="bar1"></div>
<img src="http://placekitten.com/200/300"/>
<div id="bar2"></div>
</div>
CSS
#container{
width: 100%;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color: red;
text-align: center;
position: relative;
}
#bar1{
background-color: blue;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
right: 0;
z-index: 1;
height: 30px;
width: 40%;
}
#bar2{
background-color: blue;
top: 50%;
left: 0;
z-index: 3;
height: 30px;
width: 40%;
position: absolute;
}
img{
text-align: center;
z-index: 2;
position: relative;
}
The key here is that the container is positioned relative, thus enabling absolute positioning of the child elements in relation to their parent. Use z-index to control how the elements are stacked.
A method I use for centering anything with css is:
.yourclass {
width:500px;
position:absolute;
margin-left:50%;
left:-250px;
}
'left' must be have of your width and then make it negative.
To date I have not experienced any problems with this.
