First off, let me say its been about 6 months since I have made a website, so I am very rusty! Normally I could probably figure this out myself...
I have a header div that stretches 100% width and a drop shadow, below that I have a wrapper div with a neg z-index to allow for the top div's shadow. Everything seemed ok until I tried to add an image gallery in a div that is located inside of the wrapper div, the images won't pop up. I know this is because the positioning relative and z-index but I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this.
I am sure this is something so simple and stupid but any help would be appreciated!
I temporarily threw it on my hosting so you can see the code:

Instead of a negative z-index on the wrapper put a higher z-index on the header , e.g., 9999. That will allow the drop-shadow to show and should resolve the image gallery issue.

Honestly, before this problem I kinda thought that I actually knew something about css positioning, but it looks that I do not.
Here is what I have, I need to position the social buttons div on the left of the container and make it fixed so it does not move, but only until the bottom of that div is lined up with the bottom of the container in which it was positioned then it will need to scroll further. I do not know if I am explaining my self so that everyone can understand what I mean here so please take a look at the following example
The div with all facebook, twitter, G+ and print buttons is scrollable until it is aprox. 10px below the top of the browser, then it stops and continues to scroll only after the bottom of it is lined up with the container that it is placed in to.
Please help, I am kinda stack with it
This isn't a CSS question unless you're willing to make-do with position: sticky, which probably isn't what you're looking for. (Reading about it here)
If you're looking for a jQuery solution, then you could use ScrollFollow, where you can specify a container parent for the fixed-scrolling item.
I'm experimenting with jquery.scrolling-parallax.js for parallax backgrounds.
The background elements has z-index 333.
On all elements on the site i can make the backround be behind or in front of the elements by using z-indexes below or over this.
But i have problems with my header.
I have a header with fixed position and z-index 232 to have the backgrounds be seen over it.
However, in the header div i have two other divs containing logo and menu. These are position:relative and have z-index:999 since i dont want the background to be on top of them. But this does not work!
If i switch the whole header div to z-index over 333 it works fine, the background appears behind it. But i only want it to go behind those child divs!
Appreciate your help
If I understand your problem correctly, I think the problem is that your logo and menu should not be using position:relative. Try either using a different type of positioning or placing their div outside of the header div.
By using relative the child is probably taking the header divs z-index.
I have a topbar with position:fixed which also contains anchor links (jdjd).
The problem is that the target is placed in the top of the viewport (behind the fixed topbar).
how can I fix so the the browser scrolls so that the target is shown just below the topbar?
As far as i know there is no clean soloution. If you use inline scrollbar it can be achieved, but it needs a fixed height then.
2 soloutions found using CSS: http://css-tricks.com/hash-tag-links-padding/
Else you could pretty easy use JQUERY to measure the users height, put it into a container div, and have scrolling on that.
See: http://jsfiddle.net/jpGdu/
Another soloution could be giving the element ur linking to a padding top (if it's h1 or whatever) :)
Not sure why you're being downvoted, it seems like an honest a good question.
I'd put a margin-top on the viewport, equal to the height of the fixed topbar.
http://jsfiddle.net/justiceerolin/KfMLJ/ as an example
here is the layout
http://timsegreto.com/cssmock/mock.html
i need the background image to scroll concordant with the text block in the right column.
ive tried many different ways with no success.
any ideas would greatly appreciated.
not sure if its possible or what t research to make it work.
thanks!
It seems to me that you have fixed positioning on the wrong element. Try making #framecontent position fixed and remove it from #maincontent.
EDIT It's 'quirks' mode that's causing you IE issues. Get rid of the:
<!--Force IE6 into quirks mode with this comment tag-->
from the beginning of your html. I'm sure this is supposed to be solving other cross-browser issues but it's ruining fixed positioning.
Have you adding an extra div and setting the background image on that instead of on the body? You could absolutely position this extra div in the body with top: 0 - it would scroll with the page then...
not sure if thats what you're looking for exactly...
I need a div placed at the top and center of the page to appear over top of the scrolling content below it, and stay in place at the user scrolls.
However, due to freakishly annoying bug I can not reproduce in jsFiddle (or I'd ask for help with that instead) I can't use position:fixed and I need it to work without JavaScript.
How else can I do it?
I think I understand what you mean and I've made a little example, it's pretty self explanatory but just say if you don't understand anything, sure you will.
And if I've misunderstood, I apologise... jsFiddle 1
EDIT With Real Fix
Since I read the question wrong and a fixed position couldn't be used, I have now altered the code slightly to the following jsFiddle 2
Basically you're placing a transparent fixed div to fill the entire width of the page, and then placing your absolute position div inside that, creating the same effect but hopefully getting round the bug you've come across.
