I cannot get the orange background behind DONATE at the bottom of my page right to stay put in larger browser windows. I have tried every css trick I can find. Please help!
Thanks,

You missed this trick then:
#footer .footer-col-orange {
margin-left: 790px; // adjust accordingly
left: initial;
}
This will keep your donate box relative to the footer element, and not to the left page border and will work on all displays.
The other option is to set the position of #footer .padding element to relative.
There you go :
#footer .padding {
/* padding: 15px 20px 0px 100px; */
width: 1010px;
/* position: absolute; */
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
background-color: #0A6DA1;
padding-top: 15px;
position: relative; /* First part */
}
#footer .footer-col-orange {
position: absolute;
/* background-position: right; */
right: -2em; /* second part, feel free to put what you want */
}
When you set a position: absolute; to an element, it will pull it out of the HTML flow, and you can give it coordinates (top, left, right; bottom). This coordinates are relative to the first parent with a relative position. As you didn't set any parent element to be the relative, you positioned your element relative to the document.
Your orange box is current positioned absolutely, as you know. This means that is is relative to the browser window. The left edge of that window, because you have `left:900px'. What we want is for it to be relative to the footer, which is centered.
To do this, we need to set the parent container of the orange box to position:relative. This will cause the orange box's position to depend on it's parent instead of the window.
#footer .padding {
position:relative;
}
Then, it's just a matter of setting the yellow box to the right position. Given that it's on the right side, I'd delete the left value entirely and set right:-45px instead.
#footer .footer-col-orange {
left:auto;
right:-45px
}
With these, it'll line up perfectly with the edge of the white box above:
You are going to run into an issue with inline styling. You not only have your styles applied by CSS, they are duplicated inline. You're going to either need to set !important in the new CSS that I've provided (not best practice), or better, remove the inline styling. If you provide some more information about how your side is built (WordPress, HTML template, etc) I can help with removing the inline styling.

I have a fixed div on the left side, and only on a Mac, when you downsize the window and scroll to the right for example, the fixed div follows it, but it should stay in place (not show if you scroll).
On windows it's normal.
Any suggestions?
CSS:
.header .quick-access {
background: url("../images/login_search_bg_big.jpg") no-repeat scroll left top transparent;
float: left;
font-family: Arial,Helvetica;
height: 200px;
padding: 0;
position: fixed;
text-align: left;
top: 165px;
width: 117px;
}
Different browsers interpret tags differently sometimes.
You may want to simply change your position type to absolute instead of fixed.
Read here for more information:
Learning CSS positions
You are confusing position:fixed with position:absolute. You should read more about it as mentioned by #Elad CSS Positioning
Fixed means, it will stay at the same position even when you scroll, so your "problem" isn't actually a problem, it does what you coded out there. So it's parent will be your window.
Absolute means, that it's parent is the the whole document html, and not the windows itself. So you should try this if you want it to be sticked to your html document instead of the window. Do not forget to add a position:relative to it's parent tag.
I have a div within a div. I want one to extend out of the shell div so it resembles a tab. I thought just using absolute positioning with a negative value would push it out of the parent div. That doesn't seem to work. Is there a CSS work-around?
Example
http://jsfiddle.net/W3CyT/
http://jsfiddle.net/iambriansreed/W3CyT/4/
CSS
#sideWall {
height:100px;
width:100px;
position:absolute;
top: 10;
left: 10;
background: black;
margin-top: 60px; /* give room for tab */
}
.showSideWall {
height: 60px;
width: 30px;
position: absolute;
top: -60px; /* move tab above container */
right: 0;
background: red;
}
You're doing it correctly, however, you need to rethink your values for bottom and right.
If you're looking to have the red box protrude from the black box on its right side, consider removing right:0 and applying left:100% instead. This approach guarantees that no matter how wide the black box and red box are, the red box will always be on the outside to the right; they are width-size agnostic. This can be ideal because you may want to change the size of either box dynamically or in the future (it doesn't lock you in to hard set values).
Here's a fiddle of what I'm talking about.
You could use a Z-Index and position one on top of another. There is a better way to do it with Twitter bootstrap code.

I have an absolute positioned logo on the bottom left of my website... BUT the problem is that ive positioned it to stick to the right of the page but it leaves a invisible barrier to the left of it that spreads across the page. So lets say a link is placed in alignment with that footer element, I won't be able to click it, the absolute positioned layer is spreading over it (even though nothings in it)
Heres my CSS for the logos position:
#basemenu {
margin-right: auto;
position: fixed;
bottom:0px;
width: 100%;
height: 40px;
text-align:right;
right:1%;
}
It sounds like you have an img inside of a <div id='basemenu'></div>. Is that right?
We could really use a block of HTML if you wouldn't mind posting it.
What I don't understand is why you can't target the logo itself with a bit of CSS like this:
#basemenu img {
height: 40px;
position: fixed;
bottom: 0px;
left: 0px;
}
Use the following block property display : none; to hide the block
putting image always in center page(E.x image loading for ajax call), even when move scroll. how is it?
For most browsers, you can use position:fixed
img.centered {
position:fixed;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
/*
if, for instance, the image is 64x64 pixels,
then "move" it half its width/height to the
top/left by using negative margins
*/
margin-left: -32px;
margin-top: -32px;
}
If the image was, for instance, 40x30 pixels, you'd set margin-left:-20px; margin-top:-15px instead.
Here's a jsfiddle example: http://jsfiddle.net/WnSnj/1/
Please note that position:fixed doesn't work exactly the same in all browsers (though it's ok in all the modern ones). See: http://www.quirksmode.org/css/position.html
<style>
.CenterScreen{
position:fixed;
/*element can move on the screen (only screen, not page)*/
left:50%;top:50%;
/*set the top left corner of the element on the center of the screen*/
transform:translate(-50%,-50%);}
/*reposition element center with screen center*/
z-index:10000;
/*actually, this number is the count of the elements of page plus 1 :)*/
/*if you need that holds the element top of the others. */
</style>
If you add this class your element, it will be always center of the screen.
For example:
Hello world

Put the image in a div tag with some class name (centeredImage) and use the following css
div.centeredImage {
margin: 0px auto;
position: fixed;
top: 100px;//whatever you want to set top;
}
I have a footer div with 100% width. It's about 50px high, depending on its content.
Is it possible to give that #footer a background image that kind of overflows this div?
The image is about 800x600px, and I want it to be positioned in the left bottom corner of the footer. It should work sort of like a background image for my website, but I've already set a background image on my body. I need another image positioned at the bottom left corner of my website and the #footer div would be perfect for that.
#footer {
clear: both;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 30px 0 0;
background:#eee url(images/bodybgbottomleft.png) no-repeat left bottom fixed;
}
The image is set to the footer, however it doesn't overflow the div. Is it possible to make that happen?
overflow:visible doesn't do the job!
There is a very easy trick. Set padding of that div to a positive number and margin to negative
#wrapper {
background: url(xxx.jpeg);
padding-left: 10px;
margin-left: -10px;
}
I do not believe that you can make a background image overflow its div. Images placed in Image tags can overflow their parent div, but background images are limited by the div for which they are the background.
You can use a css3 psuedo element (:before and/or :after) as shown in this article
https://www.exratione.com/2011/09/how-to-overflow-a-background-image-using-css3/
Good Luck...
No, you can't.
But as a solid workaround, I would suggest to classify that first div as position:relative and use div::before to create an underlying element containing your image. Classified as position:absolute you can move it anywhere relative to your initial div.
Don't forget to add content to that new element. Here's some example:
div {
position: relative;
}
div::before {
content: ""; /* empty but necessary */
position: absolute;
background: ...
}
Note: if you want it to be 'on top' of the parent div, use div::after instead.
Using background-size cover worked for me.
#footer {
background-color: #eee;
background-image: url(images/bodybgbottomleft.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
clear: both;
width: 100%;
margin: 0;
padding: 30px 0 0;
}
Obviously be aware of support issues, check Can I Use: http://caniuse.com/#search=background-size
Use trasform: scale(1.1) property to make bg image bigger, move it up with position: relative; top: -10px;
<div class="home-hero">
<div class="home-hero__img"></div>
</div>
.home-hero__img{
position:relative;
top:-10px;
transform: scale(1.1);
background: {
size: contain;
image: url('image.svg');
}
}
You mention already having a background image on body.
You could set that background image on html, and the new one on body. This will of course depend upon your layout, but you wouldn't need to use your footer for it.
Not really - the background image is bounded by the element it's applied to, and the overflow properties only apply to the content (i.e. markup) within an element.
You can add another div into your footer div and apply the background image to that, though, and have that overflow instead.
This could help.
It requires the footer height to be a fixed number. Basically, you have a div inside the footer div with it's normal content, with position: absolute, and then the image with position: relative, a negative z-index so it stays "below" everything, and a negative top value of the footer's height minus the image height (in my example, 50px - 600px = -550px). Tested in Chrome 8, FireFox 3.6 and IE 9.
