I have an editable iframe and I want to insert two DIVs at the [b]top [/b]and [b]bottom [/b]part(as header/footer) of iframe body respectively. Now, the question is : how to insert a div [b]at the top of iframe body[/b] and fix it there? (Will insertFirst() work?)
Also, how to fix the footer div always [b]at the bottom of the iframe body[/b]? I tried make its position absolute and gave a margin top/bottom, but the problem comes when the body height of the iframe increases and footer DIV position does not change.
I want the same thing google docs does, i.e. fixing separate part for header/footer (though google docs page is not an iframe).
Any work around?
I assume by "fixed" you don't mean position: fixed but "not editable"?
I don't know of a native way to do that, the only thing I do know is CKEditor's protectedSource configuration setting. It allows to specify regular expressions; content matching those expressions cannot be removed by the user.
If you mean "fixed" as in "position", the position: fixed CSS property should work for you (Doesn't work in IE6 though).

I have a searchbar in my navbar, and when you type something inside it, another div below it appears with results according to your typing,
I want to put this div above all of the others, because for now the div with the results goes under the website content...
I tried to put a "z-index: 999" on it, but nothing changes,
To test it
- Go on the films page of my website : https://ofilms.herokuapp.com/films
- Click on the "search" icon in the navbar
- Type "Avengers"
- See the results div going under the other div
Add position: absolute to your CSS.
As per my understanding, z-index will only work with position as absolute or fixed. I have never tried with position as relative. We can experiment that as well. :-)
Not sure if this works, but you could try giving the ! important parameter too:
z-index: 99 !important;
So I've been tinkering with this site, and I've got my work cut out, but right now I cannot for the life of me workout why content is displaying beyond the width of the window.
-redacted-
I believe it's something to do with bootstraps row/col guttering but have been unable to fix it, even with dreaded '!important' use.
Furthermore i note that a carousel button is extending beyond the width of the screen.
This basically just makes the site flimsy and seem broken.
Any css whizz out there able to give me some tips of this shit?
If the problem is with one specific tag (e.g. a <div>), add a class/id to that div with the following CSS: .classname { overflow-x: hidden; If it's the whole page, you might want to do that for the body and HTML tag. Note: When you do this last thing, people aren't able at all to scroll horizontally. This is a but user unfriendly, so you want to use that only if it's the only way out in my opinion.
Is there a way to always show a scrollbar on an iframe in HTML5, even if the content is not overflowing? The scrolling="yes" attribute doesn't work in HTML5. Is there a way using CSS?
It seems that scrolling="yes" was supported by some early browsers only. Judging from simulation of older versions in IE 11, it seems that IE 8 dropped the support: although the attribute as such is recognized, the value yes is not—scroll bars are shown only when the content does not fit in.
This is a change in browser practices. It has nothing to do with HTML5. In fact, HTML5 describes the attribute scrolling="yes" as mapping to the CSS setting overflow: scroll, which is somewhat misleading.
Modern browsers implement iframe so that the scroll bars are present, if needed for accessing all of the content, but not otherwise. Using scrolling=no or overflow: hidden, you can prevent the scroll bars from appearing, but not make them appear if the content fits (there is no overflow).
To make scroll bars appear, you need to make the embedded document set them up, e.g. by using body { overflow: scroll } in it. Then it does not matter what the iframe element says. The scroll bars will be passive (and light grey), when the content actually fits, but they will be there are occupy space, and they turn to active scroll bars as the content expands so that it does not fit. In the following example, I am embedding a page that sets body { overflow: scroll } and has an editable body element, so that you can add lines and see how the bars change:
<iframe src="http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/hello.html"></iframe>
Just as an add on, if you only want to have scrollbars showing in one direction and not both you can use the specific y and x css.
I wanted a vertical scrollbar showing all the time for the look of it but not the horizontal as width never changed.
So I used:
{overflow-y: scroll;}
The other one (in this case overflow-x) will default to auto and only show if needed.

Edit to reopen:
It seems to be difficult to position elements over a google map. Using z-index does not solve the problem which is described below: Google Maps will stay on top of some other elements even when using high z-indexes.
The question is:
Is it possible to have a div cover parts of a google map?
I have the following popup:
But when i move this popup up to appear over the map, it gets hidden:
How to force something to be the top most, always displayed object on screen?
I have tried setting the z-index on my CSS property sheet, but this did not work.
Is there some HTML/CSS property i can set so that the popup, which is a DIV, actually always sets on top of everything else?
z-index is not that simple friend. It doesn't actually matter if you put z-index:999999999999..... But it matters WHEN you gave it that z-index. Different dom-elements take precedence over each other as well.
I did one solution where I used jQuery to modify the elements css, and gave it the z-index only when I needed the element to be on top. That way we can be sure that the z-index of this item has been given last and the index will be noted. This one requires some action to be handled though, but in your case it seems to be possible.
Not sure if this works, but you could try giving the !important parameter too:
#desired_element { z-index: 99 !important; }
Edit: Adding a quote from the link for quick clarification:
First of all, z-index only works on positioned elements. If you try to set a z-index on an element with no position specified, it will do nothing. Secondly, z-index values can create stacking contexts, and now suddenly what seemed simple just got a lot more complicated.
Adding the z-index for the element via jQuery, gives the element different stacking context, and thus it tends to work. I do not recommend this, but try to keep the html and css in a such order that all elements are predictable.
The provided link is a must read. Stacking order etc. of html elements was something I was not aware as a newbie coder and that article cleared it for me pretty good.

Try setting position to absolute, ie.
#yourDiv{
position: absolute;
z-index: 10;
};
Are you using position: relative?
Try to set position: relative and then z-index because you want this div has a z-index in relation with other div.
By the way, your browser is important to check if it working or not. Neither IE or Firefox is a good one.
you should use position:fixed to make z-index values to apply to your div
Set the DIV's z-index to one larger than the other DIVs. You'll also need to make sure the DIV has a position other than static set on it, too.
CSS:
#someDiv {
z-index:9;
}

One form to do this is insert the panel that you want to expand inside a DIV setted as relative: let me show you:
<div style="position:relative">
<div style="position:absolute; z-index: 1000;">
your code
</div>
</div>
You use the first div to position the inner content in a specific area inside your page and the second absolute should be referred to the container (because is relative) The z-index in this case is referred also to container and if it higher that the container should be at top. You can put the style in a CSS class and change the size of the absolute div to expand it on hover or another action that you want to control.
I hope that this help
dropdowns always show up on top, only solution for this problem is to hide dropdowns when image is displayed (display:block or visibility:visibile) and show them when image hidden (display:none or visibility:hidden)
I am seeking some advice regarding unnecessary scrollbars appearing on certain form items. A screenshot of the issue appears below. Note it is the right-most scrollbar that is unnecessary.

The culprit appears to be the following css, adding overflow: auto; to form items within windows in gecko-based browsers (the problem appears on Firefox):
.ext-gecko .x-window-body .x-form-item {
outline: medium none;
overflow: auto;
}
Removing this style solves the problem, but I am wary of possible side effects - though I haven't noticed any as yet, this style was obviously included for a reason.
Does anyone who knows more about Ext styling know if overriding this css to remove the overflow: auto; style will cause other problems?
As an aside, this is only an issue (so far) with a certain component - a custom extension of the Ext.ux.form.MultiSelect component - even though other components use more vertical space. Does anyone know of a possible reason for this?
Thanks for any help.
overflow: auto tells the browser to add a scrollbar to the element if the content of the element is larger than the elements client area minus any padding. Getting rid of the scrollbars in CSS does exactly that. It makes the scrollbars go away, no matter what.
The side effect of your work around is if there is content outside of the client, the use will not be able to see it. Additionally, this will not only happen with this form but every form in your application unless you apply your workaround in a custom class.
The right fix is to figure out why your content area is larger than the form's client area. Firebug can be a big help with this as you can inspect the DOM and see the size of the container as well as the size of all the child items.
I suspect that your clear selections control (is this a custom control?) is not properly sizing itself (i.e in your form layout you're telling it to be x pixels high but it's actually sizing itself x+1 (remember margins and padding). The form layout is doing all the work to decide how big to make the wrapper area (the area with the scroll bar) and the control must fit within that area.
