please see link below
as you can see there's a text on header (header is an image)
the text is:
mail#yahoo.com (this text is a part of image)
I convert that part of header image to link with below code
<div id="hw"><div id="header"><img src="test.jpg" /></div></div>
and this is #link
#ResponsiveLink {
width: 267px;
height:29px;
display:block;
position:absolute;
top:100px;
margin-left:413px;
}
how can we make that link be responsive in other devices? for example when browser is narrow position of the a tag with #ResponsiveLink id changes but i want it be fixed over my text.
The best way I know, is not to put a big part of your screen as an image. On the other hand you probably don't want to cut the image into several separate images. So, I suggest using CSS Sprit.
After separating the image, you can put the parts beside each other using float, clear, and percentage widths, or use a framework like bootstrap.
If you still want to use the image as a whole header, in a single HTML tag which don't recommend at all, using percentage top for your #ResponsiveLink would work. You should just add width: 100% to all its parents: header, hw, and wrapper.
Following the comments:
#ResponsiveLink {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FF0000;
display: block;
height: 0;
left: 58%;
margin-left: 0;
margin-top: 7%;
padding-bottom: 3%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
width: 25%;
}
This will fix the problem because of the difference between percentages of position and margin, top percentage is calculated using first absolute parent's height but margin and padding percentages are calculated using parent's width. There's still a problem caused by the max width which you can fix adding a wrapper inside your #head with a width of 100% and no max width.
The other try of using floats and separated images have too many problems to write here, sorry.
What you're currently building isn't a sustainable solution and you should definitely see other replies on how to improve your site layout.
However, if you need a temporary solution, the following CSS changes will work on your current page:
#header {
margin: 0 auto;
max-width: 980px;
position: relative;
}
#ResponsiveLink {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #FF0000;
display: block;
height: 30%;
left: 60%;
position: absolute;
right: 12%;
top: 37%;
}

I have image in the header and populate its source from the database, so it has different width and height. Image dimensions could be max 2000x2000px. I'm trying to scale it but when it's very large e.g more than 1000px it's very big and it's not looking good.
This is what I currently have.
#image {
position: absolute;
display: block;
top: 20px;
left: 20px;
height: 50px;
}
<div id="wrapper">
<img src="some-dynamic-url" id="image">
</div>
I've also tried with background-size: cover but it's not stretched and how to preserve the aspect ratio and set max-width and max-height not to be so big?
Updated. My current code is the following:
#image {
display: block;
top: 20px;
left: 20px;
width: 100%;
max-width: 170px;
}
<div id="wrapper">
<img src="some-dynamic-url" id="image">
</div>
Will the height always be 50px? If not, you should remove that from your CSS and instead use height: auto;.
Also, if it starts to not look so great at 1000px by 1000px, maybe set width: 1000px; and max-width: 85%; to keep it at that width and make it responsive on smaller screens. You can adjust the max-width value to your liking or remove it.
So, the CSS would change to:
#image {
position: absolute;
display: block;
top: 20px;
left: 20px;
width: 1000px;
max-width: 85%; /* adjust as needed or remove */
height: auto;
}
Here's an example.
If I'm understanding correctly, you have a header container area where various images get populated, and sometimes the images are too big for the container and not looking good. (A screenshot would be helpful if my summary is wrong.)
The trick here is to set the image width to 100%, then set a max-width to either the image or the header container. (I picked 1200px for this example.) That ensures that your image will fill up all of the space, but not go over.
NOTE: this will cause images with widths smaller than 1200px to be stretched to fit, and may not look good either and would require some more coding to fix.
#image {
position: absolute;
display: block;
top: 20px;
left: 20px;
width: 100%;
max-width: 1200px;
}
<div id="wrapper">
<img src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/cc/ESC_large_ISS022_ISS022-E-11387-edit_01.JPG" id="image">
</div>
However, if you're looking for a work-around for images that are smaller than 2000px wide, I'd suggest something like centering them with a colored background, or perhaps tiling them. Those solutions will be good for some content, and ugly for others - it depends what you images are like and how the site looks. But those are some ideas.
You may want to use the simple trick to automatically fit size with:
img { max-width: 1200px; height: auto;}
I guess 50px for height is not a must since you thought using "cover" in backround property. Also if you wish this sort of behavior from your image, you can add "object-fit: cover;".
Read more here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/object-fit
EDIT
You can also use that version of the "trick":
img { max-height: 100px; width: auto; }
Note: Using files that big for logo is not recomand. If you got access tto database you should consider save a copy to more light version with less pixels.
I'm currently having issues with some CSS/HTML code.
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/bgHGn
I've got the background of the page in a div (feature-bg) this is to fill the entire page. The content then scrolls up from the bottom but that's irrelevant.
I'm having issues trying to get the largeheader to be displayed in the middle of the page (regardless of resolution/window size) and stick to the background so that when the user scrolls, the content covers it?
I'm not sure if that makes any sense or is even possible.
Thanks!
you want to set the text-alignment property to center
.largeheader{
position: fixed;
margin: 0 auto;
font-size: 100px;
z-index:2;
text-align: center;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
}
The core issue being this isn't exactly in the center of the page,so as #RCorrie put in his answer, you can make a set width and height to the div and then fix the margin with some simple math. Now if you wanted to jump into using javascript and jQuery thats a whole other ball game and you can definitely do this with minimal work and you wouldn't have to keep changing the div size and margin for each web page that is created.
See the CSS code for the solution:
http://codepen.io/anon/pen/GqeBa
.largeheader {
position: fixed;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
height: 100px;
width: 250px;
margin: -50px 0 0 -112px;
font-size: 100px;
z-index: 2;
}
Fixed positioning allows the element to stay put while you scroll the page.
To get the large header horizontally centered you can use text-align: center; as #metsales suggested.
In order to vertically center the large header there are a few different options you can use. For this case, since you want the large header to stick in the center of the page, I would suggest using the "Absolute Positioning and Negative Margin" method in the linked article.
You'll end up with something like this:
.largeheader {
line-height: 40px;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
margin-top: -20px;
left: 0px;
}
To put the header behind other content when the user scrolls you'll want to play with its z-index property. I can't suggest anything because I don't know the rest of your markup, but you'll probably want a negative value, and the MDN has a decent article on it.
I am relatively new to front-end dev so a bit lost as to how i can go about this. I created a container that contains a slider and some images. My supervisor has a huge screen so obviously there will be empty space at the bottom of the screen. So he doesn't want that. Instead he wants the container to be centered horizontally and vertically based on the size of the user's screen.
How can I do this properly with as minimal code as possible? I believe there is jQuery plugin but wanted to see if there is a better way or if doing this makes sense at all or not?
Due to the flow-based nature of CSS, without Javascript this can only be done if the vertical size of the centered element is fixed, by applying a position:absolute' andtop:50%` within a fixed container, and then use negative margin to offset the container. Click here for JSFiddle Sample.
Alternatively the same effect can be reached by using display:table-cell, but that's kind of messy and loses you a lot of flexibility. Sample already supplied in the other answer here so I'll save myself the effort :)
You can do it easily using a vertical-align property.
Since vertical-align works the desired way way only in a table cell, this trick with display property can give you the desired effect.
#yourDiv {
// give it a size
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
html, body {
height: 100%;
width: 100%;
padding: 0; margin: 0;
}
html {
display: table;
}
body {
display: table-cell;
vertical-align: middle;
}
See a fiddle with demo.
Try this:
HTML:
<div class="center"></div>
CSS:
.center {
width: 300px;
height: 300px;
position: absolute;
left: 50%;
top: 50%;
margin-left: -150px;
margin-top: -150px;
background-color: red;
}

Exactly Center an Image/Div Horizontally and Vertically:
http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/exactly-center-an-imagediv-horizontally-and-vertically/
Hey guys I simply cannot get this to work.
I have some content that is centred on the page using the margin: auto; "trick".
In this content I have an image. I need to make a color bar coming under the image continuing out to the sides of the browser. On the right side I need it to look like its coming up onto the image.
I have made this picture to try an graphically show what I mean: image
As you can see the bar runs from the left to the right side of the browser. The centred image is just placed on top of it and then an image positioned on the top of the image. But I haven't been able to get this working. Any one who would give it a go?
I tried positioning the bar relative and z-index low. This worked but the bar keep jumping around in IE 7-8-9. Centring the image wasn't easy either and placing that smaller image on top was even harder. It wouldn't follow the browser if you resized it. The problem here is that the user have to be able to upload a new picture so I cant just make a static image.
Please help I am really lost here
EDIT:
Tried the example below but when I run the site in IE 7-8-9 I have different results. link
I have made a jsFiddle which should work in Chrome and IE7-9: http://jsfiddle.net/7gaE9/
HTML
<div id="container">
<div id="bar1"></div>
<img src="http://placekitten.com/200/300"/>
<div id="bar2"></div>
</div>
CSS
#container{
width: 100%;
margin: 0 auto;
background-color: red;
text-align: center;
position: relative;
}
#bar1{
background-color: blue;
position: absolute;
top: 50%;
right: 0;
z-index: 1;
height: 30px;
width: 40%;
}
#bar2{
background-color: blue;
top: 50%;
left: 0;
z-index: 3;
height: 30px;
width: 40%;
position: absolute;
}
img{
text-align: center;
z-index: 2;
position: relative;
}
The key here is that the container is positioned relative, thus enabling absolute positioning of the child elements in relation to their parent. Use z-index to control how the elements are stacked.
A method I use for centering anything with css is:
.yourclass {
width:500px;
position:absolute;
margin-left:50%;
left:-250px;
}
'left' must be have of your width and then make it negative.
To date I have not experienced any problems with this.
How to horizontally center a floating element of a variable width?
Edit: I already have this working using a containing div for the floating element and specifying a width for the container (then use margin: 0 auto; for the container). I just wanted to know whether it can be done without using a containing element or at least without having to specify a width for the containing element.
Assuming the element which is floated and will be centered is a div with an id="content"
...
<body>
<div id="wrap">
<div id="content">
This will be centered
</div>
</div>
</body>
And apply the following CSS:
#wrap {
float: left;
position: relative;
left: 50%;
}
#content {
float: left;
position: relative;
left: -50%;
}
Here is a good reference regarding that.
.center {
display: table;
margin: auto;
}
You can use fit-content value for width.
#wrap {
width: -moz-fit-content;
width: -webkit-fit-content;
width: fit-content;
margin: auto;
}
Note: It works only in latest browsers.
This works better when the id = container (which is the outer div) and id = contained (which is the inner div). The problem with the highly recommended solution is that it results in some cases into an horizontal scrolling bar when the browser is trying to cater for the left: -50% attribute. There is a good reference for this solution
#container {
text-align: center;
}
#contained {
text-align: left;
display: inline-block;
}
Say you have a DIV you want centred horizontally:
<div id="foo">Lorem ipsum</div>
In the CSS you'd style it with this:
#foo
{
margin:0 auto;
width:30%;
}
Which states that you have a top and bottom margin of zero pixels, and on either left or right, automatically work out how much is needed to be even.
Doesn't really matter what you put in for the width, as long as it's there and isn't 100%. Otherwise you wouldn't be setting the centre on anything.
But if you float it, left or right, then the bets are off since that pulls it out of the normal flow of elements on the page and the auto margin setting won't work.
The popular answer here does work sometimes, but other times it creates horizontal scroll bars that are tough to deal with - especially when dealing with wide horizontal navigations and large pull down menus. Here is an even lighter-weight version that helps avoid those edge cases:
#wrap {
float: right;
position: relative;
left: -50%;
}
#content {
left: 50%;
position: relative;
}
Proof that it is working!
To more specifically answer your question, it is probably not possible to do without setting up some containing element, however it is very possible to do without specifying a width value. Hope that saves someone out there some headaches!
Can't you just use display: inline block and align to center?
Example.
for 50% element
width: 50%;
display: block;
float: right;
margin-right: 25%;
