I have an image in my header that I would like to crop whenever its DIV is narrower than the image itself.
Here's the page when I scale the browser window down: a slider appears and you can see the grey body
Here's what I would like to happen: for the div to be cut off, and you can't see the rest of the image without scaling the window back.
It would be ideal if this was the property of the div, rather than the image, so that whatever other object is placed in the div, behaves in the same way.
I'd love to post a more in-depth illustration of the problem, but I've lost my previous account and I don't have the reputation to post the links/images.
I've already tried overflow: hidden and it doesn't do anything for a single object (it hides additional objects though).
EDIT: Ok, so here's where my mistake was: I typed in overflow: "hide" instead of "hidden", now it works perfectly. Thanks for the answers!
set
overflow:hidden;
at your container DIV
use overflow hidden like this on the parent element(.slider in your case I guess)
.parent{
overflow-x:hidden
}

I have this div that starts off at a distance from the top:
The problem is that, when I start to scroll up, the rounded image is hidden:
I am very sorry that I could not reproduce the issue, as this is a custom CSS used on Notion -- meaning that I couldn't duplicate a website for testing purposes.
What I want is for the rounded image to appear on the top of the page, as opposed to being partially cut off as in the second image. The image should be perfectly round, even if being scrolled up.
In more simple terms, I want the rounded image to display even outside of the notion-app div, which is shown in the first image that starts off at an offset from the top.
Do anyone have a suggestion of removing the problem?
EDIT I already tried z-index, but that doesn't help.
Thanks in advance.
Give the #notion-app of overflow: visible;
#notion-app{
overflow: visible;
}

So I've been tinkering with this site, and I've got my work cut out, but right now I cannot for the life of me workout why content is displaying beyond the width of the window.
-redacted-
I believe it's something to do with bootstraps row/col guttering but have been unable to fix it, even with dreaded '!important' use.
Furthermore i note that a carousel button is extending beyond the width of the screen.
This basically just makes the site flimsy and seem broken.
Any css whizz out there able to give me some tips of this shit?
If the problem is with one specific tag (e.g. a <div>), add a class/id to that div with the following CSS: .classname { overflow-x: hidden; If it's the whole page, you might want to do that for the body and HTML tag. Note: When you do this last thing, people aren't able at all to scroll horizontally. This is a but user unfriendly, so you want to use that only if it's the only way out in my opinion.
Not sure how to best ask my question. And I can't yet post screenshots. :( This issue does happen in mere current coding practices. You can currently even see this issue happening on Facebooks home page.

How to replicate live
Grab the right hand side of your browser and pull inwards. Eventually a scroll bar appears. Not necessarily bad. As I have a fixed with here. However… Notice the scrollbar is the length of the background color up in the top of my header which is actually creating a "Curtain" like effect.
Make matters worse:
If on other high level parent elements like .Footer or .Page you play around with overflow and position relative the curtain will then begin overlaying on top of the entire site.
Check out Facebook: They often have this issue as well. Obviously most don't notice it as it's not going over top of the content.
In either case I know there is something not right.
Help appreciated!
Add something like this to your CSS:
body { min-width: 980px; }
You have min-width: 980px; set in many of the elements on your page, but not on html, body, or .container. Once the viewport is smaller than this, these elements will overflow html and give you the scrollbars you're seeing.
But this doesn't make html any bigger. It--and its background--is still at the viewport size. This is why you get the "curtain" effect when you scroll.
Setting width: 100% on html doesn't fix this; this only sets html to 100% width of the browser window. If you're going to use min-width, make sure you you don't just apply it to elements that hold your content, but also those that have your backgrounds.
to fix this, add
html, body {
min-width: 980px
}
in your www.alpacanation.com/styles.css:40, then you are done. :)
EXPLANATION: the problem is this container,
<!— stat container —>
<div class=“container”>
<!— START FOOTER MENU SECTION —>
that container has width:980px which screws up the view because it forces that container to stay at 980px wide while the rest is shrinking, thus creates the ‘curtain’ like effect.
I have a header that is 100% of the page and should have a background-color.
Then I have my content div centered and along width that an extra div to the right for ads.
When shrinking the window so that all content + ads doesn't show I have a horizontal scroll which works great except for that the header looses the background-color for the part which was outside the viewport. How can I get the background-color to run all the way?
A simple solution is to set the top background-color on body instead but we'll want the same design on a future footer. We can't use multiple backgrounds because of browser support issues.
Example page: http://niklasholmberg.se/test.html
As others have pointed out, the problematic thing here is that your "right" column is taken out of normal flow and is therefore not actually part of the "page". Browsers are (IMO) correct in not painting the background all the way to the right in the "head"... but (again IMO) wrong in even allowing you to scroll to see the right column when it is outside the page bounds.
If you set overflow on the boby to hidden you solve the problem of the background... but of-course you don't make advertisers happy that way :)
Suggestion
Maybe it is enough to get what you need:
#fakebg {
position:absolute;
top:0;
width:1102px;
background:#000;
margin:0;
z-index:-1;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/Mfsx6/1/
In summary: I added a dummy div to the head with the same offset placement as the right column. This gives us a surface there to add a background to.
I think the problem you're having is not that the background doesn't run all the way. It's that the content DIV is being resized by your use of right:-200px; That essentially makes the content DIV 200px larger than it should be, pushing it outside of the BODY.
If you set #right to use right:0px; the problem no longer exists.
I'm not sure if that renders correctly for your needs though.

Set the min-width value for the #head. For my resolution it is working perfectly with min-width:1102px.
try this out.
Going further on #Martin Westin's answer, to make it work for any size window dynamically:
I added a div with id = "full-width-bg" to the header where I needed the background to stretch all the way across. Custom.Toolbox.getFullWidth() gets the actual size of the DOM whether it is in the viewport or not, so it includes overflow and the entire width of the page. Then we set the width of #full-width-bg to the full width.
window.Custom = window.Custom || {};
Custom.Toolbox = {
init: function(){
Custom.Toolbox.fixBG('#full-width-bg');
jQuery( window ).resize(function() {
Custom.Toolbox.fixBG('#full-width-bg');
});
},
getFullWidth : function(){
return Math.max(document.documentElement["clientWidth"], document.body["scrollWidth"], document.documentElement["scrollWidth"], document.body["offsetWidth"], document.documentElement["offsetWidth"]);
},
fixBG : function(selector){
jQuery(selector).css('width', Custom.Toolbox.getFullWidth() + 'px');
}
}
jQuery(function(){
Custom.Toolbox.init();
});
I have been using a lot of position:relative; in my design, I just find it the easiest way to get everything where I need them to be.
However, the more items I add on my site (each one with their individual div) each one ends up further and further at the bottom of my page, so I have to manually position them higher.
This leaves a lot of empty space at the bottom, and I thought that adding height: 1000px; would limit the scrolling a bit, but this method doesn't seem to work.
I've even tried adding height: 1000px; to the wrapper and it's still not working.
How can I limit vertical scrolling, to the number of pixels I choose?
Thanks so much in advance.
Wait, so you are creating a div, using position relative to move the content of the div to the correct location, and the issue being that the div tag itself is still in the same place and creating a vertical scroll even though there is no content there?
If so you should look into floats.
Here are some tutorials.

You can specify both the height and the overflow:
.someClass
{
height:1000px;
overflow:scroll;
}
The most common values for overflow are scroll, auto, and hidden.
To limit the distance someone can scroll, I think you'd need to use JavaScript. I'm not sure how, but I can't think of anything in CSS that would do that.
If you are looking to set when something should scroll instead of just be cut off or expand the tag, use overflow:auto;.
