I'm using the standard comma-separated multiple image CSS like this:
background-image: url(image-one.png), url(image-two.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
However I need image-one.png to float and to be 85% width. Image-two.png does not get that styling.
How do I apply that float and width styling to just one of the images?
Here is an example of what I think you are describing:
background: url(image-one.png) left 0 no-repeat 10px 100px/85% 400px,
url(image-two.png) 5px 5px no-repeat 5px 5px/600px 400px;
I'm not sure the image and element size etc so you can ignore the px values and put in your own.

I'm stuck on a CSS problem.
I would like to get a CSS stripe as background of my page like i did here, except that i want the stripe to be located on the bottom right corner of the page.
Moreover i want it to be a fixed background attachment.
I tried what is suggested here : How to position background image in bottom right corner? (CSS) but it seems to work only for background images and not for background gradients.
I tried changing offsets in the gradient definition but it's still relative to the top left corner, and the result would differ if the window size changes.
Here's my current code :
body
{
background: linear-gradient(
150deg,
rgba(180,214,14,0.0) ,
rgba(180,214,14,0.0) 70px,
rgba(180,214,14,0.4) 80px,
rgba(152,197,10,0.5) 150px,
rgba(0,0,0,0.4) 151px,
rgba(0,0,0,0) 160px
), no-repeat 0 0 !important;
background-attachment: fixed !important;
/* background-position: 80% 80% !important; */
background-repeat: no-repeat !important;
}
Any advice is welcomed !
I think you are correct, in that the background-position property only works for images and not gradients. At least that's what I'm finding by playing around with it.
So this isn't an answer to "how to make background-position work for gradients", but rather a suggestion to put your gradient on a different element and position IT to the bottom right.
Like:
div {
position: absolute;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
width: 160px;
height: 160px;
background: linear-gradient(
150deg,
rgba(180,214,14,0.0) ,
rgba(180,214,14,0.0) 70px,
rgba(180,214,14,0.4) 80px,
rgba(152,197,10,0.5) 150px,
rgba(0,0,0,0.4) 151px,
rgba(0,0,0,0) 160px
), no-repeat 0 0;
background-position: center;
}
Granted, you'll probably have to change the gradient to fit better within that element, but I think this might be the only way to achieve what you're trying to do.
Also, you'll want to make sure that body has position: relative (or whatever the containing element is).
How do you call it in css when you have a syntax like this:
background-image: url(../images/image1.png), url(../images/logo_pagina_image2.png);
background-position: top left, top right;
that is, when you address two elements at the same time on the same rows?
because I actually want image1.png to have an absolute position, and I want it to have left:-20px, but I'm not familiar with the kind of syntax so I don't know how to write it
This is called to Multiple Background Images
Multiple background images can be specified using either the individual background properties or the background shorthand property.
Example:
background-image: url(../images/image1.png), url(../images/logo_pagina_image2.png);
background-position: 0 -20px, top right;
background-repeat:no-repeat, no-repeat;

Demo here is define three image in background
You're looking for multiple background images. Here is an example of usage:
background:
url(../images/image1.png) -20px 0 no-repeat, /* On top */
url(../images/logo_pagina_image2.png) right top no-repeat; /* beneath image1.png */
You can also specify the backgrounds like this (i.e. split up the image and position declarations):
background-image: url(../images/image1.png), url(../images/logo_pagina_image2.png);
background-position: -20px 0, right top;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-image: url(../images/image1.png) -20px 0 norepeat , url(../images/logo_pagina_image2.png) 0 0;
I've got three background images, all of width 643px. I want them to be set out like so:
top image (12px height) no-repeat
middle image repeat-y
bottom image (12px height) no repeat
I can't seem to do it without getting them to overlap (which is a problem because the images are partially transparent), is something like this possible?
background-image: url(top.png),
url(bottom.png),
url(middle.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat,
no-repeat,
repeat-y;
background-position: left 0 top -12px,
left 0 bottom -12px,
left 0 top 0;
Your problem is that the repeat-y is going to fill the whole height, no matter where you position it initially. Thus, it overlaps your top and bottom.
One solution is to push the repeating background into a pseudo element positioned off of the container by the 12px at the top and bottom. The result can be seen here (the opacity in the demo is just to show that there is no overlap going on). Without opacity, see here. The relevant code (tested in CSS3 browsers: IE9, FF, Chrome):
CSS
div {
position: relative;
z-index: 2;
background: url(top.png) top left no-repeat,
url(bottom.png) bottom left no-repeat;
}
div:before {
content: '';
position: absolute;
z-index: -1; /* push it to the background */
top: 12px; /* position it off the top background */
right: 0;
bottom: 12px; /* position it off the bottom background */
left: 0;
background: url(middle.png) top left repeat-y;
}
If you needed or wanted IE8 support (which does not support multiple backgrounds), then you could put the top background in the main div, and put the bottom background in by using the div:after pseudo element positioned to the bottom of the container.
If you can add padding/borders to the block equal to the backgrounds you want to position without overlapping other block, you can use the background-clip & background-origin to position the top and bottom backgrounds over the paddings/borders, and the repeating background over the content/paddings+content.
Here is an example: http://dabblet.com/gist/2668803
For your code, you'll possibly need to add something like this:
padding: 12px 0;
background-clip: padding-box, padding-box, content-box;
background-origin: padding-box, padding-box, content-box;
or
border: solid transparent;
border-width: 12px 0;
background-clip: border-box, border-box, padding-box;
background-origin: border-box, border-box, padding-box;
And you'll get what you need. If you can't get the paddings/borders, the pseudo-element like ScottS mentioned would work perfectly.
Try do it like this:
background: url(PICTURE.png) left top no-repeat, url(PICTURE2.png) right bottom no-repeat, url(PICTURE3.jpg) left top no-repeat;
}
EDIT:
Was just an example, but here's the css with your css:
background: url(top.png) left 0px top -12px no-repeat, url(middle.png) left 0px top 0px repeat-y, url(bottom.png) left 0px bottom -12px no-repeat;
}
I actually found a simpler fix, because I was having this same issue with a horizontal navigation.
Rather than adding code like the other answers you just have to list it differently in your CSS. The center image that repeats needs to be listed last, not first or second.
In my code it looks like this:
background-image: url(../images/leftNav.gif), url(../images/rightNav.gif), url(../images/centerNav.gif);
background-position: left, right, center;
background-repeat: no-repeat, no-repeat, repeat-x;
to use backgroud-position with 2 arguments, must to Write in extended writing backgroud-position-x and backgroud-position-y
background-position-x: left 0;
background-position-y: top -12px, bottom -12px, top 0;
A radical but effective way to deal with this, if:
you want to apply backgrounds with no overlapping to a ":before"
the ":before" element as a known max height
&:before {
background: url('vertical-line.png') no-repeat 0px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 140px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 200px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 260px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 320px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 380px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 440px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 500px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 560px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 620px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 680px,
url('vertical-line-repeat.png') no-repeat 740px;
}
Here's a method that uses 3 div's for each of the Top, Middle, and Bottom images that are transparent to apply to your webpage.
Background wallpaper is optional.
Tested in modern browsers and is IE8 friendly.
This method allows you to treat the body element as it should be treated, i.e., your webpage markup does not need to be in a wrapper or containing element.
jsFiddle Example
jsFiddle Example with centered filled
Since the above example uses image place holder content that is without transparency for Top and Bottom images, you can verify markup works with transparency with this jsFiddle that uses mini transparent icons in repeat mode HERE.
The only (practical, non hair-threatening) way I see is do do that in Javascript, when the page has loaded, and when it is resized, with a canvas sized to fit the innerHeight and the 3 images: draw the first one once at the top, draw the second as many times as required to cover the remainder of the canvas, and draw the 3rd one at the bottom of the canvas. Position the canvas at 0,0 with a ridiculously negative z-index.
I had a go at it with 3 images (643 x 12, 100 and 12) and of course the first issue I saw is that the 3rd image is drawn over part of the last iteration of the 2nd image -- unless you have a window height of exactly 12+12+(p2.height*X), you'll have some overlap. But that's expected, right?
I think z-index will fix this because z-index only affects CHILD elements, meaning you can't mess up anything else on the page that uses z-index.
top and bottom images z-index:3;
middle image z-index:2; background-repeat:repeat-y;
Is there a way to precisely position a background image with CSS? Code:
.content h2.productSpotlight {background:url(/images/spotlight.jpg) no-repeat; padding-left: 35px;}
I want to be able to move the image around so its more flush with the H2
Thanks
Yes, you can give an offset position for the background property, for example:
background: url(/images/spotlight.jpg) no-repeat 10px 5px;
This will shift the background image 10px from the left corner and 5px from the top. You can also use negative values to shift in the opposite direction.
sure, the background properties include background-position. You can specify it separately as
background-position:20px 20px;
or as part of the combined syntax like
background:url(/images/spotlight.jpg) no-repeat 20px 20px;
See the reference at MDC.
Setting the background image is clear, but how do i set the position for the background-image?
The background-position property, e.g.
background-position:top right;
if you want a background image with no-repeat positioned 10px to the right and 20px from the top
{ backgroud: url(path to image) no-repeat 10px 20px; }
you can use negative values for the position too, eg. -10px to move it 10px to the left
Or you could use shorthand to set everything at the same time!
background:#ffffff url('/images/background.jpg') top right no-repeat;
