I'm new to css and I produced what i thought was a nice webpage until i resized the browser window size. I don't know why this happening?
Could someone offer me some advice please. When I resize the window I would like the 'objects' to stay where they are but the window to resize. for example, if I drag the bottom corner of a window up and to the left I'd expect to see what was at the bottom right disapear and scroll bars to appear but the object in the top left hand corner would stay exactly where they are
Full webpage link
following links are html and one of my css codes
You will need to put a wrapper around your content to prevent the objects from moving around when you resize your browser/zoom in and out.
You will need to implement something like this..
CSS:
#Wrapper {
margin: 0 auto;
}
HTML:
<div ID = "Wrapper">
<!-- Content here you want to be wrapped into position -->
</div>
Without the rest of your code, I can't offer any other help, You've only supplied one of your style sheets.

I know such questions are galore in SO but I do not find a single solution to meet my need fully.
I am using fancybox jQuery plugin to create a thumbnail gallery ( non-responsive version : here- gallery is on the right side ) of images and slideshow as well.
The issue is with the thumbnail gallery - images of varying aspect ratios are uploaded and shown in the thumbnail gallery. The wrapper element (.project_gallery a - inline anchor has been made to display as block) for each image has the dimension 195x195px;
I want the images to stretch to the full of the div and be centered both vertically and horizontally.
In case you need any explanation of the last sentence above, I provide it below:
If the uploaded image has its width smaller then the height, the width should be set to fill the wrapper element fully in the horizontal direction. Even when the image width is resized to be equal to that of the wrapper, image height may not still fill the full height of the wrapper. So the image width still needs to be enlarged maintaining the aspect ratio. At a certain enlargement point, the image height fits the full wrapper height but the image width is then larger than the wrapper width. So the image needs to be placed in center of the wrapper in the horizontal direction. And the left and right side of the image may get cropped i.e: made invisible. The reverse thing should take place if we interchange the height and width of the image in the just-mentioned explanation.
And all those stuff I need to to do in a responsive design way.
EDIT:
HTML mark-up for the image gallery is below.The a element will be many as this is the wrapper of the image and .many images will be there.
<div class="project_gallery">
<a class="fancybox" href="some_href_here" data-fancybox-group="gallery" title="Project"><img src="assets/img/projects/img_name " class="inline_block" alt="image project"/></a>
...
</div>
EDIT2 : The responsive version being devloped is here now.
EDIT 3 : In case you do not like to look into any specific site, you can just consider the full question as below :
Responsive design thumbnail gallery : how to resize and place images with randomly varying aspect ratios in the center of the same sized wrapper divs (img_wrapper) both vertically and horizontally leaving no part of the wrapper unused ? The HTML markup and a bit CSS is below:
HTML:
<div id="gallery">
<div class="img_wrapper"><img src="..." alt="img"/></div>
//the above line will repeat as many images as are there.
</div><!-- end of id gallery-->
CSS:
<style>
#gallery{
width:70%
}
.img_wrapper{
width:25%;
float:left;
}
</style>
See if this helps get you started:
CSS
.fancybox img.inline_block{
margin-left:0 !important;
}
.project_gallery a{
width:100%;
}
.project_right img:first-child{
margin-left:0;
}
.project_gallery a{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
It's possible you might need to add !important or extra selectors to some of these rules so that they will take precidence and overule the exiting defaults.
Regarding the behaviour you want for the background image filling the full div, I think the existing background-image:cover; setting should do what you want. If it doesn't, start by checking that your images are large enough to fill the div.
You mention that you want to do this is responsive way. Your page design doesn't appear to be responsive, for example the image in the top slider is hard coded at 1050px so this would prevent the page from collapsing in a responsive manner. Unless you moved from your existing fancy box plugin to something like a lightbox, I think it could be a challenge to get your existing gallery to be responsive.
Good luck!
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 am building a photo gallery viewer using javascript and css, but i cant center the elements. I have a back arrow photo, the photo itself, and the next arrow. these 3 photos are one next to each other, and I need to center all three of them.
Any help is appreciated, and also, I am kind of new to css/javascript/html, so dont be so hard on me.
Thank you,
Guy Z.
(you can go to guyzyl.org, enter any gallery and click on a photo to see what I mean, and what I am trying to center)
This style should help:
#viewer {
text-align: center;
white-space: nowrap;
}
Also, use a DOCTYPE.
Just looked at your site. Try adding the CSS below to the styles for your Viewer div
margin: auto;
That 'should' center the div on screen. Assuming there is enough space in the browser window.
You need to give
<div id="viewer"></div>
a fixed width and set it's left and right margins to auto.
The CSS looks like this:
#viewer{
width:500px;
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
}
To prevent the arrows from wrapping around you need to resize your photos to fit within the width of the viewer minus the width of the arrows and any padding, margins, or borders on them.
I added two divs to hold background images for decorative purposes - as requested by the artist whom is working with me on a website.
At first, it worked very well. The images were supposed to show on each side of the wrapper div holding the website content - without affecting page width.
Then the organization owning the website got another sponsor, who's logo I had to add to a column on the right. I created a new id for the 5th "button" and created a div for it. Uploading it, I noticed that a scroll bar had suddenly appeared on the bottom of the page, for no apparent reason.
I first suspected the button to be the problem, but eventually found out that the right-most decorative div was bending the page width, despite using absolute positioning. Both of the divs use the same code, only mirrored for left and right. I have no idea what is causing the problem..
(You can see the problem in action while it lasts at www.torucon.no/no/)
Please help me out! Here is the CSS for both of the divs:
#wolf
{
position:absolute;
min-height:500px;
min-width:498px;
left:-293px;
top:150px;
background-image:url('http://www.torucon.no/css/wolf.png');
z-index:-1;
}
#lion
{
position:absolute;
min-height:500px;
min-width:498px;
right:-293px;
top:150px;
background-image:url('http://www.torucon.no/css/lion.png');
z-index:-1;
}
Here is an HTML snippet showing the HTML of the divs:
<div class="wrapper"> <!-- Contains the entire website for structure -->
<div id="wolf">
</div>
<div id="lion">
</div>
((In case you didn't get it: The wrapper div is supposed to be centered, and it is. But when I resize my window, I find that a scroll bar appears long before the wrapper content is even close to the browser window borders. That would be annoying on computers with low resolution or small screens!))
I think what you want is to have the lion and wolf progressively appearing as the user widens the browser viewport, but otherwise partially hidden off to the sides of the wrapper. Correct?
I think you're only safe option to achieve this without triggering the scrollbars you don't like are to combine the images into one and attach them as the background image on the body element of the page.
I believe you're right about using overflow-hidden on the body -- you'd loose the ability to scroll to see overflowed content if the viewport is resized down below the wrapper's width.
I have checked that you posted link http://www.torucon.no/no/ but i coudnt see bottom scroll bar ,
Anyway , Why you cant set background?
<body>
<div class="overlay">
<div class="wrapper">
</div>
</div>
</body>
<style>
body{width:100%; background:---;}
.overlay{width:100%; background:---;}
<style>
I have the following on a page:
<div style="max-width: 600px; overflow-x: scroll;">
<a href="PoolPanoramaBig.jpg" target="_blank">
<img src="PoolPanoramaBig.jpg" style=""/>
</a>
</div>
If the image is wider than 600px then you can scroll the image to the left to see the rightmost part. However, I want to default it so that it is already scrolled fully to the left when initially displayed.
I've tried setting a style in the image to float:left which works but that disables the horizontal scrollbar.
Ideas?
EDIT: Here's a page that might help explain what I'm trying to do: http://guyellisrocks.com/ie-example/
Do you see how you have to move the scroll bar to the right to see the right most edge of the image? I'd like it to default to that when you first hit the page.
I don't have a problem doing this in JavaScript and if that's possible some hints would be appreciated. Otherwise if it's possible to do this with CSS then this is how I would first attempt to do this.
Try adding an anchor to the right of the image. Something like:
<img src="foo.jpg"><a name="right_of_image"></a>
When or after navigating to the page, if you append the #right_of_image anchor to the document URL, the browser will try to focus on the anchor, effectively scrolling to the right edge of the image. This probably won't work if you're using a scrolling container like the one you have, but should work if the image is directly embedded in your page. Does this work for you?
