I have a fixed navbar using curved ribbon images that have transparent bits above and below the actual ribbon and I have a scaling full size background (so I can't make a navbar with a matching background at the top). I would like the page content to disappear behind the ribbon, halfway through the navbar as the user is scrolling.
It's the same problem as these two questions and the answers (which are good) aren't working for me.
Hide scrollable content behind transparent fixed position divs when scrolling the page?
Hide Scrolling Content Under Transparent Header
This is what I don't want:

This is kind of what I want but without the scrollbars:

Thanks in advance for any help, it's greatly appreciated, this site has and will continue to teach me a lot.
The css z-index attribute should do the trick to place any element in front of or behind another element. Like so:
<style type="text/css">
body, html {
margin:0 auto;
padding:0;
font-family:Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif;
font-size:12px;
}
/* Header Styling */
#header {
color:#FFF;
background: url(/images/header-back.png) repeat-x;
position:fixed;
top:0;
left:0;
width:100%;
height:50px;
z-index:1;
}
#headerWrap {
width:1024px;
margin:0 auto;
height:50px;
}
/* Sub Header */
#subHeader {
position:fixed;
top:50px;
margin:0 auto;
z-index:1;
}
#subHeaderWrap {
height:30px;
width:830px;
border-bottom:thin solid #333;
background: url(../images/subheader.png) repeat-x;
}
/* Contaier */
#container {
margin:0 auto;
width:1024px;
min-height:600px;
}
#containerWrap {
margin-top:50px;
}
/* Menu */
#sidebar {
float:left;
width:140px;
min-height:600px;
}
#content {
border-left:#333333 solid thin;
border-right:#333333 solid thin;
border-bottom:#333333 solid thin;
float:left;
width:830px;
min-height:600px;
padding-top:30px;
margin-bottom:10px;
}
#contentWrap {
width:830px;
margin:0 auto;
padding-bottom:10px;
}
</style>
<div id="container">
<div id="header" style="z-index:1;"/* Places div on top */">
This is transparent.
</div>
<div id="containerWrap">
<div id="sidebar">
Menu Items Here
</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="contentWrap">
<div id="subHeader" style="z-index:1;"/* Places div on top */">
<div id="subHeaderWrap">
This div is transparent too, but is now on top.
</div>
</div>
Anything here is scrollable and will scroll under the divs above with z-index:1;
</div>
</div>
I have found the solution you're looking for.
You're going to use a little Jquery and some CSS. I will assume you're loading the latest version of Jquery in your footer.
The header will be fixed, the elements inside it will be absolute. We will not focus on elements inside the header because that really doesn't matter for this, but if you were to put a menu and logo in the header you would make them absolute.
HTML Div with class header assigned or if you prefer you could just create a <header></header> element, whichever. But for this example we will use a class.
<div class="header">...Your Header Elements In this...</div>
CSS
body {background: url('../img/page-background.jpg') no-repeat top center fixed; background-size: cover;}
.header {position: fixed; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100px; background: transparent;}
JS - I use a seperate JS file and then load this after I've loaded Jquery in the footer.
$(window).scroll(function() {
"use strict";
var windowYmax = 1;
var scrolledY = $(window).scrollTop();
if (scrolledY > windowYmax) {
$('.header').addClass("hide-content");
} else {
$('.header').removeClass("hide-content");
}
});
Add this CSS for new class assigned:
.hide-content {background: transparent url('../img/page-background.jpg') no-repeat top center fixed; background-size: cover;}
Here is a JSfiddle: The Fiddle
I was not able to get the JS to work in JSfiddle for some reason, maybe someone can fix that issue, but I don't really have the time to mess with JSfiddle much, but wanted to provide an example to the end result. So I just added the class that gets assigned by the JS to the div in the HTML and you can see the result in the preview pane.

I have a (relatively) simple layout, with fixed header and footer divs. The content div is split in two "full height" divs with display: inline-block;. The left div is used for navigation and the right one for the actual content and has overflow-y: scroll;. The problem is that I cannot set the width of the right div to fill the remaining space. I have tried using float (as a last resort) but the right div was pushed downwards and, honestly, I'd prefer not to use floats.
Is filling the remaining width possible in my scenario? I would very much like to not hardcode the width of the right div.
Here's the JSFiddle example.
Simple HTML structure:
<html>
<head></head>
<body
<div id="container">
<div id="header">This is the header area.</div>
<div id="content">
<div id="leftContent"> </div>
<div id="textContent">
<p>Hello world (and other content)</p>
</div>
</div>
<div id="footer">This is the footer area.</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
CSS excerpt:
html, body { margin:0; padding:0; height:100%; }
#container { position:relative; margin:0 auto; width:750px; overflow:hidden;
height:auto !important; height:100%; min-height:100%; }
#header { border-bottom:1px solid black; height:30px; }
#content { position:absolute; top:31px; bottom:30px; overflow-y:none; width:100%; }
#leftContent { display:inline-block; height:100%; width:200px;
border-right:1px solid black; vertical-align:top; }
#textContent { display:inline-block; height:100%; vertical-align:top; overflow-y:scroll;
width:540px; /*would like to not have it hardcoded*/ }
#footer { position:absolute; width:100%; bottom:0; height:30px; }
Edit:
Thanks to Prasanth's answer, I was able to achieve what I wanted. The solution was to set
display:flex; flex-direction:row; on the #content div and
width: 100%; on the #textContent div.
Testing on IE 11 (and downwards in compatibility mode) did not produce unwanted results.* The new version can be found here.
*Edit: This method works properly in IE11. In IE10, the scrollbars do not appear if the content of the #content div requires scrolling. The layout works thought. In IE <10 it does not work at all.
You can use Flexbox to achieve this
Go through this and you will get what you need
.content{ display:flex } .content > div { flex: 1 auto; }
and beware of browser support
I'm looking for a way to add a footer to my page which will always show up at the bottom. The problem is, a lot of the content on the page is set via position: absolute;, so at the moment, unless I manually give the footer a margin-top: 900px; value, its simply hidden by one of the absolute positioned content. But on some pages where the content is less than 900px, there is an unnecessary gap at the bottom between the end of the page, and the footer.
How can I resolve this in such a way that there's no gap between the end of content and footer?
In the new jquery, you can just use this:
<div data-role="footer" data-position="fixed">
<h1>Fixed Footer!</h1>
</div>
from http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.2.0/docs/toolbars/bars-fixed.html
Put everything before the footer in a div with position relative. This div will flex vertically to the content in it and will provide the buffer to keep anything after it right below it. No margin needed.
You also can put indexes.
z-index: 1;
http://www.fiveminuteargument.com/fixed-position-z-index
In your case, put z-index in css for footer at 10 or more.
Let's suppose a <footer>, styled with display: block and height: 250px.
So all you have to do to achieve what you want is add:
position: fixed;
top: 100%;
margin-top: -250px;
That's it. It'll be permanently aligned at the bottom. :)

After doing some fiddling I was reminded that absolute positioning removes the element from the document flow. You cannot depend on an absolute positioned element to affect the other elements because it will not. Because you do not know the height of the content then using margin-top is clearly not option.
So I came up with this: basically do a normal layout with floats then use position relative to move the items where you want them. This way the elements still affect the document flow, however, now you have total control over the position. This is precisely what relative positioning is for: You want total control over the position of an element but you still want they element to affect the layout normally.

This css has been somewhat difficult to figure out...Basically what I want is what is in this picture, but with dynamically changing content.
so I set up my html like this, basically all the elements are piled into the wrapper, the pictures and titles will be dynamically rotating and will be different widths and heights:
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="title"><h2></div>
<div id="image"><img></div>
<div id="leftbutton" class="but"><img></div>
<div id="rightbutton" class="but"><img></div>
</div>
Everything I have tried Hasn't worked out. how should I go about this?
The closest I have got is this, but the title field can change heights and that makes this method not work, since, I have to position the image relatively and its relative position changes with the title element growing and shrinking:
#wrapper{
position:relative;
text-align: center;
}
.but{
z-index:20;
position:absolute;
}
#leftbutton{
left:0px;
}
#rightbutton{
right:0px;
}
#title{
z-index: 3;
display: inline-block;
width:auto;
min-width: 80px;
max-width: 340px;
}
#image{
z-index: 1;
position: relative;
top:-21px;
}
If you mean the Title in the center use this way:
#title {
margin: 0 auto;
width: /* your width */
}
the position should be relative at the wrapper.

I just reorganized the body structure, adding one more div and floating everything.
Then inside the central section I added title and image that you can style to be centered to the relative div.
If you provided some example code we would better be able to assist you. In the meantime, the following code should take care of what you're looking for:
HTML
<div id="wrapper">
<div id="title"><h2>Article Headline</h2></div>
<div id="image"><img></div>
<div id="leftbutton"><img></div>
<div id="rightbutton"><img></div>
</div>
CSS
#wrapper {
background:#6cb6d9;
display:inline-block;
position:relative;}
#title {
position:absolute;
top:0;
width:100%;
text-align:center;}
#title h2 {
background:green;
color:white;
padding:10px 15px 10px 15px;
display:inline-block;
max-width:200px}
#image {}
#image img {
min-width:200px;
height:300px;
width:500px; }
#leftbutton {
position:absolute;
left:0;
top:0;
height:100%;
width:75px;
background:black;}
#rightbutton {
position:absolute;
right:0;
top:0;
height:100%;
width:75px;
background:black;}
Though instead of hardcoding the img size, just remove those lines of CSS to have the div automatically adjust to the default size of the img.

None of these solutions worked correctly, ultimately the way to get it to work is with this trick: How to center absolutely positioned element in div?
Then you just position all elements absolutely within the wrapper and the sub elements relatively as seen in the post
I hope this is not a repost! I have looked everywhere and so I am sorry if it is.
I have a header div that is position:fixed and it has some image links and a login div. Since the position:fixed is relative to the window, whenever I resize the windows to test liquidity, the content in the header div gets jammed and starts to drop down the page.
Is there anyway to get a horizontal scroll bar to appear and remove the space? I have min-width set on the body and the header div but no luck. I am not coding for IE at the moment and only using latest Chrome and Firefox for testing now.
Thank you for any help!

Set a min-width to your container:
#container { min-width: 1000px;}

I am aiming for a fixed width layout, with width:1008px across all monitors. Here's my HTML-
<body>
<div id="god_container">
<div id="root">
... all content ...
</div>
</div>
</body>
and CSS -
#god_container{
background:url("/site_media/images/bg-1008.png") repeat-y scroll center center #D4D9DD;
margin:auto;
position:static;
width:auto;
}
#root {
background-color:#FFFFFF;
margin:auto;
width:1008px;
color:#000000;
font-family:Verdana,Arial,sans-serif;
font-size:10pt;
}
body{
color:#373737;
font:16px arial;
line-height:1;
background-color:#D4D9DD;
}
I thought this would solve it. But when I render, the root css does not adhere to 1008px value. Also root's background-color does not show as #FFFFFF i.e. White. It still shows my body's background-color. What am I doing wrong?
UPDATE: To anyone interested I have found excellent ready-made CSS layouts at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/style/layouts/category/C12/
Giving the background-image and color to the body, makes sure it is displayed on all pages, and have the #god_container act as a wrapper for the page, center it by margin:0 auto; and give it the width:1008px;.
Also you don't have to give the position:static; to the #god_container wrapping div, instead use position:relative; to make sure all child divs, are placed inside it even if positioned absolutely.
At last, giving #root a width:100% will place the div to it's parent div width.
Try using this CSS:
body{
color:#373737;
font:16px arial;
line-height:1;
background:url("/site_media/images/bg-1008.png") repeat-y scroll center center #D4D9DD;
}
#god_container{
margin:0 auto;
position:relative;
width:1008px;
}
#root{
background-color:#FFFFFF;
margin:auto;
width:100%;
color:#000000;
font-family:Verdana,Arial,sans-serif;
font-size:10pt;
}
Not sure if I'm missing something here, but it could be much simpler. You don't need a wrapper DIV... the body can handle that. All you need is your root DIV.
CSS
body{
background: #D4D9DD url("/site_media/images/bg-1008.png") repeat-y center;
color:#373737;
font: 16px/1 Arial;
}
#root {
background: #FFFFFF;
color: #000000;
margin: 0 auto;
width: 1008px;
}
HTML
<body>
<div id="root">
... all content ...
</div>
</body>
Here ya go: http://jsfiddle.net/XdA92/1/
Try the below.
give the back ground url to the main body so that it will go to all pages
#god_container{
background:url("/site_media/images/bg-1008.png") repeat-y scroll center center #D4D9DD;
margin:auto;
position:static;
text-align:left;
width:1008px;
