How to make the position static in mobile view - css

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;

.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>

Bootstrap - Different image backgrounds for different breakpoints... where is a bug?

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.

Re-sizing background images with mobile parallax and CSS

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');
}
}

background-image is not showing correctly on mobile devices using stellar.js

Hi guys I'm using stellar.js and it is working quiet well for desktop devices. But on mobile devices the background-image will be displayed only a part of it. It is not showing the whole image but the left corner of the image. The problem must be the css code. But I don't see it. Thanks for the help guys!
My css looks like:
.intro-section {
padding: 150px 0px;
text-align: center;
background-attachment: fixed;
width:100%;
height:100%;
position: relative;
background-position: center center;
background-size: cover;
background-image: url(../images/frederick_meseck_wood_logo.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
#media(min-width:768px) {
.intro-section {
min-height: 100%;
}
}
Try this in your media query:
#media(min-width:768px) {
.intro-section {
background-attachment: inherit !important;
background-size: 100% 100%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
}
The first background-size parameter is the width, you can increase this value when going to smaller devices (I recommend this)

Change image width and height depending on device/browser size

I have this div:
<div id="background">
<img src="imagenes/index.jpg" height="auto" width="100%"/>
</div>
with this CSS:
#background {
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
top: 0%;
left: 0%;
right: 0%;
z-index: -1; }
I want to know if there is a way to change the image height/width depending in whether the device/browser is bigger in the height/width so the image can cover the full screen.
I know changing the height="100%" width="auto" would make a good option if the device/browser is taller, but if it is wither it is not.
Any good idea?
Normally, when you target mobile device, you should use media queries. However in your case, it's just a full screen background so you can use background-size property here:
#background {
background: url(imagenes/index.jpg) no-repeat center center fixed;
-webkit-background-size: cover;
-moz-background-size: cover;
-o-background-size: cover;
background-size: cover;
}
Note: This property is only supported in modern browser, for old IE versions(<8), you can try to use this IE filter:
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(
src='imagenes/index.jpg',
sizingMethod='scale');
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.AlphaImageLoader(
src='imagenes/index.jpg',
sizingMethod='scale')";
If you can set a specific value, you may try #media feature.
#background
{
height:100%;
width: 100%;
}
#media(max-width:1000px){
#background{
height:1000px;
width: 800px;
}
}
Use this to make images responsive:
img {
width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
#media all and (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1024px) {
.pr {
display: none;
}
//write here rest of code that will vanish when the screen is smaller then 1024px
}
Hope this helps! I used it for some projects of mine, worked like charm to vanish some stuff :)

css for media queries and height issue

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%
