I am trying to put an image with absolute position inside a .well div. I have to keep the image position absolute as I would like to create a responsive image using following CSS format. But the image appears out of the div scope.Here are my code for html and css
<div class="container">
<div class="well">
<img class="img-polaroid" src="http://testimage.png" />
</div>
</div>
.css
img{
position: absolute;
max-width: 80%;
top: 10%;
left: 10%;
}
As you can see I cant change the position property to 'relative'. I also tried to add a height:auto; property to .well class but it didn't go through neither.
Why is there a need for absolute positioning, you're using percentages which are relative units to the containing element. So therefore if your <img> tag is inside of the div then it's percentage width or height, let's say 50% will always be 50% the height or width of the <div> (this is presuming that the <div> is fluid).
Max-width is a good thing to be using.
Another technique for scenarios requiring finer tuning is to figure out the dimensions of the image and compare it to the size of the page. Let's say an image is 500 X 100 and the page width is 1200px wide document. The calculation to find out the percentage is (500 / 1200 ) × 100 = 41.66%
This is why in the Bootstrap.css file all widths are given in percentage.
Hope I've explained it all a bit to you.

With scss / bootstrap 4.5 html I set max width for for images with class
max-width: 250px;
height: auto;
It works ok for big images, but if image is small then it is ugly...
But if image is small in witdh, if there is a way not to make width bigger its original size?
Thanks!
Wrap the img tag in a div tag and set the max-width for the div tag to be 250px and the max-width for the img tag to be 100%.
<div style="max-width: 250px;">
<img style="max-width: 100%" src="yourImage.jpg">
</div>
Is there an easy way to make a full width hero type banner using bootstrap and WordPress? I know how to do it with bootstrap and I know how to hack WordPress Templates, the problem lies when you are wanting to this within the WordPress content editor(Perhaps via short-code even).
So, if using a template in wordpress that is say 1100 px wide, but the screen is 1300px wide, simple adding a div with a background color will only extend the width of the containing element which is 1100 px wide.
How can I add a fullwidth banner anywhere in the code with any sized containing element without breaking bootstrap rules?
You could use position: absolute to break free from the containing div.
Then use left: 0px; width: 100% to use the full width of the browser.
Then, wrap your hero inside that. So:
<div style="position: absolute; left: 0px; width: 100%;">
<div class="hero-unit">
<h1>Heading</h1>
<p>etc.</p>
</div>
</div>
The problem you'll experience with this is that subsequent content will ignore this new div with regards to vertical-positioning.
A hack to that would be to add block-level content with the proper height adjustment (matching the height of your absolute-positioned div), e.g.
<div style="height:500px"></div>
I have a square image within .img-container. Sometimes it takes a few seconds for an image to load and the .img-container collapses and only takes the full height when the image loads. However, I would like it to keep the full height (as if the image is there) while the image is loading.
I would've easily done this by setting a min-height on img-container class, however it's a fluid grid and the image is responsive (notice bootstrap's img-responsive helper class) which makes it hard to set the min-height to an appropriate value for different screen sizes (although achievable with media queries as a last resort).
Solving this by putting a placeholding image sounds like an overkill (especially performance wise on mobile). Also, not sure what would load first then, the placeholder image or the actual image.
<div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-6 col-md-4 col-lg-4">
<div class="card">
<span class="img-container thumbnail clearfix">
<img alt class="pull-left img-responsive" src="http://...">
</span>
<div class="caption">
<a href="http://.." class="card-title lead">
Some text
</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
EDIT DUE TO COMMENT
If you do not specify a source at all (not even a dummy, temporary one), the browser will not even try to "guess" the image's height, and so it collapses. If you know the ratio of the image (it's obviously 1:1 in case of a square picture), you can use the following trick to preoccupy the space, and scale the image along with the div.
Set the following CSS:
.test-div-inner {
padding-bottom:100%;
background:#EEE;
height:0;
position:relative;
}
.test-image {
width:100%;
height:100%;
display:block;
position:absolute;
}
Then you can use the following HTML:
<div class="test-div-inner">
<img class="test-image" src="http://goo.gl/lO9SUU">
</div>
Here is the working example: http://jsfiddle.net/pQ5zh/3/
Note that the fiddle contains another div element, this is only required if you would like to give it all a padding or border, since the padding-bottom calculates the padding in pixels based on the width of the div INCLUDING THOSE PARAMETERS, which is NOT the effect we want to achieve (the image would be a little taller than it should be).
For non-square images:
If you would like to change the ratio of the picture, just change the padding-bottom of the container div accordingly. For example, if you would like to place an image with a ratio of 2:1, change the padding to 50%. To keep it short: the ratio of the container div's width and padding should always be equal to the ratio of the image's width and height.
There is an easy way to do exactly this, but it only works for square images.
Specify the width of the image (using CSS) to be 100%. This way the browser will automatically assume that the image height is the same as it's width, and preoccupy the place.
http://jsfiddle.net/pQ5zh/2/
.test-image {
width:100%;
}
Note: There is a way to achieve this for non-square images too, but that is a bit more complicated.
EDIT: See above.
Ok, assuming all images are square, we can do it. Add an extra div around your image like this:
<div class="img-container">
<div class="image-wrap">IMAGE HERE</div>
</div>
Then we want CSS along the lines of
.img-container {
position:relative;
background: #ccc;
width:200px; /* Remove this width */
color:#000;
}
.img-container:before{
content: "";
display: block;
padding-top: 100%;
}
.image-wrap {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
bottom: 0;
right: 0;
}
See this in action:

You'll want to remove the width set in .img-container
Struggling with the dreaded centring of different sized images in a DIV.
Got a solution from StackOverflow ( How to vertically align an image inside div ), using a <SPAN> as a dummy element (with vertical-align: middle) and it works well except for the images which are bigger than the DIV and these are correctly resized, but shown below the DIV.
If I remove the <SPAN>, then the centring works in the horizontal, but not in the vertical.
If there is a simple change, I can make as I like the simplicity of the solution.
The tests are at
http://mclportal.net/ModalTests.html
This will work for you:
<div id="divModal" style="display:table">
<div id="divImage" style="display:table-cell; vertical-align:middle">
<img id="img" src=".........">
</div>
</div>
You should put max width and max heights on your images. Then just use relative positioning of the images inside a div with a relative position. for instance...
<div style="height: 300px; width: 300px; position: relative; text-align: center;>
<img src="#" style="max-width: 200px; max-height: 200px; position: relative; top: 50px; />
</div>
Using an approach like this all images will be vertically aligned with each other and centered within their div container. Plus having max height and width set will allow the image to keep its aspect ratio.
#mcl not sure if you've managed to resolve your problem yet.
If not checkout out my blog post centering large images in smaller containers their is also a codepen demo on there.
I had the same issue and managed to get it working without any need of javascript or inline styles.
Hope it helps
I'm working on a website for a girlfriend of mine.
But I'm stuck positioning a the logo.
Here is the website I'm talking about:
http://xntriek-test.s3-website-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/
I tried using z-indexes but don't work. I also tried setting an background image for the body.
But then I'm to limited with sizing the image.
I'm using Twitter bootstrap to put this thing together.
At the moment this is the class I'm using for the logo:
.logo{
position: absolute;
top: 25px;
left: 25px;
height: 45%;
width: 30%;
z-index: 1;
}
At the moment I'm positioning the image in a span along side the main content.
But because I'm using position: absolute this wouldn't make a difference were I put it.
If any body has any ideas how I could solve this, maybe a different approach then I'm doing right now. Any help welcome!
You need to modify your CSS along the following:
<div class="span6 offset3" style="position: relative; z-index: 1">
z-index affects positioned elements, so just add position: relative to your span of interest.
I would create a special class "z-wrap" and modify the style sheet.
<div class="span6 offset3 z-wrap">
In CSS style sheet:
.z-wrap {position: relative; z-index: 1}
Reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/CSS/Understanding_z-index/Adding_z-index
Note You may have to adjust the value of z-index depending on any z-index value you may have set in the logo container.
First you are distorting the logo with your css, if you want your image to be responsive position it in an responsive element, position this absolut and let the image adjust it's size.
#logoContainer {
position:absolute;
top:25px;
left:25px;
width:30%;
z-index:-1;
}
img.logo{
width:100%;
height:auto;
}
your html should look something like this:
<div id="logoContainer">
<img src="yoursrc/logo.gif" alt="The Logo" class="logo" />
</div>
Put this right after the opening of your body tag and not in some other elements.
By putting it in other elements the logo inherits their z-index and you can only influence it's z-positioning inside the parent but not on the overall page.
One thing to remember when using the z-index attribute :
Only the elements placed using their "position" attribute (relative, absolute or fixed), can be affected by the "z-index".
So if you want to fix your issue, either put your logo as a background image, either use position in the CSS of the content.
