This website (click) should look like this website here (click) for the most part. The first link is in BVCommerce cart, the second was the initially designed HTML and CSS. You'll notice on the first link the center content is slightly off center as well as missing the background with the shadow, which is my main issue. (The image that should be showing up is images/bg.png)
There are a few bugs with the first website but I'm really just trying to get this background to show up properly.
First website CSS: justicejewelers.com/css/styles.css
Second Website CSS: justicejewelers.rcmhosting.com/css/styles.css
First Website Image: justicejewelers.com/images/bg.png
Second Website Image: justicejewelers.rcmhosting.com/images/bg.png
UPDATE
I've combined the bar and background gif to save some heartache. But any ideas on how to get the whole center area shifted to the right properly?
I do not know about your main issue, but on the first page I would change the text inside the head. Search robots such as Google will often ignore pages with too much information in the head due to spam protection.
I believe you have something like this in the CSS:
.wrapper { background: url("images/bg2.gif") repeat-y scroll center top transparent; padding-top: 0; }
and it overrides this:
.wrapper {
background: url("../images/bg.png") repeat-y scroll center top transparent;
padding-top: 0;
}
About background error, Firebug shows no-repeat :
/BVModules/Themes/Painted%20Paper/styles/styles.css :
url("../images/bg.png") no-repeat scroll left top transparent;
Also, your #maincontent div is smaller than the width of the background image (you have no padding in the first website (1016 pixels versus 960 pixels)
I guess you should remove /BVModules/Themes/Painted%20Paper/styles/styles.css CSS link
and give a try to a helper like Firebug :)

What I want to achieve:
I am doing the very familiar CSS zen garden however I can't seem to get the image to float like this. I want it at the top of the page and to stay at the top like a toolbar like stackoverflow has mounted to the top of the page.
Unfortunately, any time I try to display my image it is not only behind the text but also far too large. I only see about 1/3rd of my image. If I try to scale it in any way then it disappears completely. I have seen that other people do this with the added <divs> but I am told that I should use ::before to do this ....either way I can't get either to even display my image ...the only thing that does barely work is ...
body{
background: url("../CSSMidterm/Header.png") center;
}
but as I said that displays 1/3rd of the image....any idea how I can rectify this situation?
To make it clear, I am asking how to mount an image to the top of a webpage using ONLY CSS no touching HTML at all. I want it to be fairly similar to the toolbar at the top of Stack Overflow own page.
You can try this
body {
background : transparent url("../CSSMidterm/Header.png") no-repeat center center/cover;
}

I have one more problem to solve before I can call my first website done, and I would greatly appreicate the help of this community.
You can see my website for yourself at www.dylanbisch.com
The problem I am trying to solve occurs on the homescreen between the class artdesign and tumblr-wrapper.
Basically, the class "artdesign" contains the two circular buttons and the class "tumblr-wrapper" contains the black and white photos on the homescreen.
My problem occurs if you shrink the browers window and then try to scroll left and right. Instead of scrolling left and right across the entire page, only the black and white photos in the "tumblr-wrapper" class scroll left and right.
I am looking for a solution that would stop the tumblr-wrapper from being the only thing to scroll when the brower window is small, and would create full page left right scrolling.
I hope I have explained by problem adequately, but if I need to explain something differently please let me know.
On line 370 of style.css, you have a position:fixed applied to the .artdesign.
Im not sure what the logic was for putting it there exactly, but if you remove it, the page will scroll as you expect.
The fixed position means that div is fixed and will not move (even if you scroll), its mainly used to stick headers and footers to the top and bottom of pages. (Like the twitter bootstrap page [notice the black header menu along the top?.. thats fixed])
So basically:
.artdesign { /* Line 370 of style.css */
float: left;
padding: 200px 0 0 10px;
position: fixed; /* REMOVE THIS POSITION FIXED TO SCROLL! */
width: 579px;
list-style-type: none;
}
You have .artdesign set to "position: fixed" so this will always stay at the same window location. Change this to "position: absolute" and this should solve the problem.
I've got this peculiar bug I've been trying to fix today—-still no luck.
If you look at the example below,
http://vitaliyg.com/alpha/hire/
Here's what happens. The full-width background image loads in the correct position, centered along the y axis. Then when we hover over the image, the whole image jumps over to the middle, and slowly adjusts itself back to it's normal desired position.
What's causing this is left: 50%; margin-left: -960px;. This allows us to center the image correctly to begin with. If we didn't have this CSS, the hover wouldn't jump, but the image would load anchoring itself on the top left of the browser.
In the link above, the red box is the content div. The blue box is some text that will be parallaxing with the background-image.
Here is what I am trying to achieve:
Make the background-image appear centered.
When the user hovers over the background-image, it would not jump to the middle of the page.
And lastly, decrease the width of which the user would be able to "parallax" on the x axis. The way it is now, is that the user can see from side to side of the image if patient enough. I want the parallax to be very subtle.
Also, I'm using jParallax, found here:
http://stephband.info/jparallax/
Thank you for your help!
Once you set the position via CSS for the background image, it seems jQuery Parallax plugin alters those settings. The solution then is to apply those settings after the jQuery Parallax has dealt with that parallax layer.
First, remove the margin-left and left from your .parallax-layer#background class.
.parallax-layer#background {
background-image: url('../images/bg.jpg');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center bottom;
width: 1920px;
height: 620px;
}
Ideally, center the blue box using the same method (unless you want it partially off screen). I've also removed non essential CSS based on your HTML.
.parallax-layer#tagline {
background-color: blue;
width: 400px;
height: 400px;
}
Finally, add the CSS rules that were removed from the background and tagline selectors so they are applied after jQuery Parallax has manipulated those items.
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
jQuery('#parallax .parallax-layer')
.parallax({
mouseport: jQuery('body')
});
jQuery('#background').css({marginLeft: "-960px", left: "50%", bottom: "0px"});
jQuery('#tagline').css({marginLeft: "-200px", left: "50%"});
});
You no longer will see the large white section (body background color) to the left of the background image when the mouse enters the viewport.
This jQuery Parallax plugin aligns everything top/left by design. If the mouse enters the
viewport from the right of the blue box, that box animates to that location correctly.
However, should the mouse enter from the left side of the blue box, that box will 'jump' to the cursors location. You might consider removing the last jQuery line above so the blue box is top/left upon browser load or use a lower percentage value like 25%.
For those that landed on this Question/Answer and wanted some real markup to work with, I have set up two jsFiddles. One jsFiddle duplicated the problem and the other has the solution as shown above.
Original Problem - jsFiddle
Fixed Applied - jsFiddle
Both jsFiddles are in full screen mode so the Parallax effects can be seen.
Instructions to view Original Problem:
1. Launch the above Original Problem jsFiddle Link.
2. Press the jsFiddle Play Button, being careful not to enter the viewport. If the blue box moves in any way... you've entered the viewport so press the play button again.
3. Enter from the top/left of the viewport and you will see the problem... the HTML Body (white color) is seen as the background image readjusts itself.
4. Press the Play Button at any time to reset the webpage.
To see the Fixed Applied, either launch the link above or at the Browsers Address Bar modify the URL so you see revision 1 of that jsFiddle. (i.e., http://jsfiddle.net/UG4Sq/1/embedded/result/ )
The blue box indicates via text which jsFiddle your viewing. Cheers!
I am trying to use a background that surround the content area (just a bit of shading on both sides) as seen here: http://i.imgur.com/5X5D7.jpg
I left room in the middle for the fixed width layout which is 980px.
My body css is just this:
body {
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
background: url(../images/bg.jpg) center repeat-y;
}
It looks good on the homepage that has no content on it. But when I go to a test page that has a few paragraphs typed out and the scroll bars appear in my browser, there is a slight white line that appears to divide the background and the content area.
I tried shifting the background image shading by a pixel but then it does not work on the homepage..
Is there something else I can be doing in the css to prevent this?
I should say I am trying this in drupal with the zen theme and have not really changed anything else.
Made a jsfiddle for you: http://jsfiddle.net/Ja2SR/
Essentially I think you're looking at the browser trying to divine 1px in two, which it can never do. I don't really understand why it is an issue, though - the line appears inside the content area, which in the fiddle you can see as white next to red, but if your content area is white also, and has padding on both sides, which I assume it does... then having 1 more pixel shouldn't be too bad. Correct me if I'm assuming wrongly!
When using the like or send widget on a Fan Page (no mater if you use iframe tag or fbml for it) the overlay for commenting is positioned always to the right. see
http://twitpic.com/4q7ggi for example.
I cant find a way to get the widget to respect the 520px boundary of the facebook tab.
see http://www.facebook.com/pages/Ludwig-Test/127771653944246?sk=app_101150316644842 for an example.
Anyone an idea how to solve this ?
TIA

Try adding this to your css:
.fb_edge_comment_widget {
margin-left: -350px;
}
This will move comment box to the left, but the little arrow pointing to the button will move too (which you could try to cover with another element). It will only work if you're using XFBML, not an iframe.
Here's an example.
I had to move the little arrow to the bottom, and that's how i did it.
1) Move your popup window to the desired position. Use the !important statement to overwrite default styles.
.fb_edge_comment_widget {
top: -224px !important; left: -246px !important; height: 191px;
background: url(../img/arrow-down.gif) 0 100% no-repeat
}
This style also contains a new arrow image which replaces the bottom line of the popup window. It contains my own new bottom arrow, which is blue (#283E6C) by default and grey inside (#F2F2F2). We can use height to adjust the vertical position and move the background image to the bottom.
The image will look like this:
.
2) Apply overflow: hidden to the span that wraps the iframe, We'll be able to cut off parts of the iframe by applying margin-top in step 3, and replace them with our own.
.fb_edge_comment_widget > span {
height: 184px !important; overflow: hidden; border-top: 1px solid #000;
}
I'm using border-top to create my own upper border, since in step 3 we are cutting of the default border and arrow.
3) Move the iframe up a bit to cut off its upper border and arrow.
.fb_edge_comment_widget > span > iframe {
margin-top: -7px;
}
The result looks like this in my case:
If you're using the XFBML implementation of the Facebook Like button, you can use CSS to re-position the "flyout" menu relative to its original position near the Send button:
The above example using jsFiddle and this CSS:
.fb_edge_comment_widget {
margin-left: -343px;
}
Since the contents of the "flyout" are inside an iframe you won't be able to apply any CSS to it — meaning, moving the triangle indicator to the right side of the "flyout" isn't possible.
Web browsers have tightened security on cross-frame scripting due to spoofing and other hacks, so iframes are treated like separate HTML pages with their own CSS and JavaScript.
For any advanced CSS styling, you would have to inject the Facebook Widget's iframe using DOM Scripting ... and even then it may not work across browsers.
Not a great answer but the only option I have found is to wrap the widget in an absolutely positioned Div to keep it on the left side of the window
To fix it I strongly recommend to put the Facebook widget on the left side of your page. Any other solution could work for a certain period of time, but in the future will fail.
The reason is that Facebook updates its widget frequently.
