there's a container with background-color and padding specified. there's an image inside it. in a full screen browser window it looks like as it should look like:
http://img263.imageshack.us/img263/4792/61536769.png
but after resizing the window (window width is less than the content width) and the horizontal scrollbar appears, if i scroll it right, i can see the background ends where the window ends:
http://img845.imageshack.us/img845/7370/11506448.png
here's the code:
<body style="margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow-y: scroll;">
<div style="background: pink; padding: 32px; display: block;">
<img src="http://projects.quantize.com/P/reporter/blog/wp-content/themes/thesis/rotator/sample-1.jpg" style="width: 640px;" />
</div>
</body>
in ie8 it looks right, the padding is treated as it's part of the content. in firefox and in opera it isn't, even if i use the "-moz-box-sizing: border-box;" (and correct doctype and everything...) so i don't really know what should i do. i usually did it with margin for the image but this time that can't be a solution (the actual thing is different than this example, but it shows the exact problem).
thanks for your help in advance :)
Add an extra div that wraps your existing div and do float:left.
<body style="margin: 0; padding: 0; overflow-y: scroll;">
<div style="background-color: pink; width:100%;float:left;">
<div style="background: pink; padding: 32px; float:left;">
<img src="http://projects.quantize.com/P/reporter/blog/wp-content/themes/thesis/rotator/sample-1.jpg" style="width: 640px;" />
</div>
</div>
</body>
Edit: Removing display: block; as that's irrelevant when you have float.
What's going on is that the div isn't expanding to wrap around the image, since the image has a fixed width, but the div doesn't (and is therefore defaulting to 100% of the parent, which is body/html at 100% of the viewport). If you look at it with Firebug, you can see that the image is going outside of the bounds of the div and its padding.
I've tweaked the CSS in this jsFiddle to get the background to expand to the image. It should at least get you started. Basically, what I did was add overflow-y: auto; to the div, which expanded the background.
One thing you can do in this case is to put a specific width on the div as well:
<body style="margin: 0; padding: 0;">
<div style="background: pink; padding: 32px; display: block; width: 640px;">
<img src="http://projects.quantize.com/P/reporter/blog/wp-content/themes/thesis/rotator/sample-1.jpg" style="width: 640px;" />
</div>
</body>
You can do that in this case because you already know the width of the contents. Of course, if you need a dynamically sized div this might not work for you.
I was going to suggest putting margin: 32px on the image instead of padding: 32px on the div, but when I tried it that didn't help either. Bizzare.

There are many questions on this topic already posted so sorry for posting another. However, none of the others that refer to my situation -- vertically aligning a row of images of undefined height, rather than a single image -- have received a reply that accomplishes what I need to do. As far as I can tell, Kizu's first solution here: How to vertically align an image inside div should be the thing, but alas I can't get it to work.
So, I have a container div. I can specify a height for this div if necessary. I can also place this div in another div if necessary.
Inside the div, I want to place a row of images of varying heights. These images should be vertically centered in relation to each other (not just in relation to the container div).
I cannot use background images in this case (the images are being placed within a text widget for easy replacement purposes).
As far as I can tell, I also cannot use display: table on the container div and display: table cell on my images, because the table cell must have a defined height, and my images are of varying heights.
Here is my code -- I've got a couple of extra divs (#footer-single-widget and .footer-single) to achieve the overall centering and padding I want, so I'm including these as well in case one of them is affecting the subsequent divs:
<div id="footer-single-widget">
<div class="footer-single">
<div class="textwidget">
<div class="media">
<img src="#image-1" width="103" height="36" class="alignleft" />
<img src="#image-1" width="103" height="40" class="alignleft" />
<img src="#image-1" width="103" height="26" class="alignleft" />
<img src="#image-1" width="103" height="40" class="alignleft" />
</div><!-- end of .textwidget -->
</div><!-- end of .media -->
</div><!-- end of .footer-single -->
</div><!-- end of #footer-single-widget -->
And the CSS:
#footer-single-widget {
width: 100%;
}
.footer-single {
text-align: center;
max-width: 980px;
margin: 0 auto;
}
#footer-single-widget .textwidget {
display: block;
height: 40px;
width: 980px;
}
.media {
display: inline-block;
height: 100%;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.media img.alignleft {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
max-height: 40px;
max-width: 200px;
}
The frustrating thing is at some point I achieved exactly this effect -- then decided I didn't need it (all my images at that point were the same height) and deleted the code I had written. Now I need it again and don't have the faintest memory of what I did! But I know it's possible... somehow. Thanks for your advice.
I have a html document structured with a header, content, and footer divs. I am trying to center an image (a logo) inside my header div to display at the top of my webpage in the middle. I can absolute position it into the middle, but when I change the browser size, the img doesn't move along with it. I want it to be place automatically in the center of the window. I am stumped..?
I have tried , margin-right:auto; margin-left:auto. I have also tried the trick where you make margin-left negative half the width and top 50%, but nothing has worked so far.
html:
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
<img id="logo-img" src="http://f.cl.ly/items/3c0h1b0F3t1D1S1T2J0F/smallersticker.png">
</div>
/*...(body div)
...(footer div)*/
</div> /*container*/
css:
#header {
background-color:transparent;
height:260px;
width:100%
}
#logo-img{
display: block;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
Also, Do I even need a container? Not sure if I need javascript for this, or if it can be accomplished with just html/css? Hope someone can help, thanks!
What is happening is that you are already correctly centering your image.
Your problem is that the image is huge. If you notice closely, the image is not centered if your browser window becomes smaller in width than the image.
Remove the white area from the image and it will center correctly.
Edit: in IE, you need to add the rule text-align:center to #header
Another way:
If you don't want to change your image, you can use this hack:
<style>
#header {
overflow-y: hidden;
background-color: transparent;
height: 260px;
width: 100%;
margin-left: 50%;
}
#logo-img{
display: block;
position: relative;
right: 50%;
}
</style>
<body>
<div id="container">
<div id="header">
<img id="logo-img" src="http://f.cl.ly/items/3c0h1b0F3t1D1S1T2J0F/smallersticker.png">
</div>
/*...(body div)
...(footer div)*/
</div> /*container*/
I learned this hack a while ago here
Just use the logo at a size it's supposed to be (like this here), then all you need to do is add the align="center" attribute to your logo's div.
For some odd reason I added a responsive image to my responsive layout and it seems to add some sort of spacing below the image.
You may view the issue here: http://www.client.noxinnovations.com/jensenblair/
The top image. Here is my HTML and CSS.
HTML
<div class="header"> <img src="images/photograph.jpg" /> </div>
CSS
img {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto !important;
}
.header {
height: auto;
padding: 0;
margin: 0 auto;
border: none;
}
It seems to be consistent in each browser. Any ideas anyone?
There are two ways (that I know of) to solve this: http://jsfiddle.net/3kC4K/1/
<div>
<img src="http://placehold.it/100x100/"/>
</div>
<div>
<img src="http://placehold.it/100x100/" class="block"/>
</div>
<div>
<img src="http://placehold.it/100x100/" class="inline"/>
</div>
CSS
div{
border:solid 1px #f00;
margin:5px;
float:left;
}
.block{
display:block;
}
.inline{
vertical-align:bottom;
}
img tags, by default, are inline elements. Because of this, browsers will create a sort of "gutter" underneath them so that any text that wraps below it won't be flush with the bottom of the image.
In your case, simply applying display:block to the image should do the trick.
I have this image link:
<p class="alignright">
<a target="_blank" href="...">
<img width="230" height="158" align="right" style="margin-right: 30px; margin-top: 20px;" src="some_source" >
</a>
text should go here
</p>
The alignright class looks like that:
.alignright {
float: right;
margin: 4px 0 1px 10px;
}
Now I tried several things to place text below the above image link (I tried using a < br > and image captions for example), but everything failed. The text is either too far on the left, or its not even below the image link.
Any ideas how to get the text below the image link?
Thanks!
You mean that you want the text to be aligned to the left edge of the image link?
This means that you have to put both elements into one container and assign the float:left property to this one:
I guess that this is the "" I can see in your sample.
Did you make sure, that the width of the p-Element is the same as of the image link?
Otherwise the text would be aligned to the p-borders wherever they are on your page.
Shrink the size of the p-Element or put everything into an extra container:
<div style="float:right; width:#IMAGE_LINK_WIDTH#; text-align:left;">
IMAGE_LINK
<!-- A <br /> might be placed here -->
Text
</div>
after <p class="alignright"></p> tag put
<br style="clear: both;" />
some text here
Text will appear under the image.
Live Sample
Just add a span or a div with clear:both property and then align your text as you need.
EDIT:
If the text below the image is a link then just wrap the link inside a p tag like this
<p>Your Text</p>
By doing this your link will appear in the next line as p is a block element.
Block elements force line breaks before and after the position they are placed at.
See Demo
This is html file
<img src=""><span id="title" >your text</span>
This is css file
span#title {

bottom: 459px;
padding: 5px;
color: white;
opacity: 0.7;
position: absolute;

Try in this way
This HTML-Code...
...works with this CCS-Code...
a.testclass
{
background: transparent url(sprite.png) no-repeat -125px -671px;
display: block;
width: 378px;
height: 150px;
}
...in Firefox 12 but not in Internet Explorer 8.
The code is inspired by this question regarding anchors, sprites and CSS. I've found a similar questions, but since this code is placed within a rather complex Drupal installation, I still hope that there's an easier way to fix this issue than going through the code to find some "absolutely positioned outer div and some menu styles", which had been responsible for the issue in 2.
Thanks for your help.
Edit-1:
This is the Firebug HTML-Log:
<div id="banner-area">
<div id="banner-left">
<div class="region region-banner-left">
<div>
<a href="LINK">
<img width="378" height="150" alt="ALTTEXT" src="IMAGE.GIF">
</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div id="banner-right">
<div class="region region-banner-right">
<p>
<a class="testclass" href="LINK"></a>
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
The referenced CSS-Code is:
#banner-area {
width:756px;
margin:0;
padding:0;
overflow:hidden;
}
#banner-left {
width:378px;
float:left;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
#banner-right {
width:378px;
float:right;
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
The first picture (IMAGE.GIF) is shown in FF and IE8. The second hoever, the one i'd like to replace with a sprite, is only shown in FF but not in IE8.
I've turned transparency on and off as Florian suggested, but to no effect. I've reduced the image size by 10px in width and height, but that didn't help either.
After two days of wasted time I've found out that IE8 doesn't import more than 31 css-files: http://drupal.org/node/228818?page=1
After enabling the "optimize css-files"-feature again in the Drupal administration panel of my installation, which I had turned off so it doesn't interfere with my development, everything worked fine.
This question is related:
IE CSS Bug: background-color: transparent behaves differently to background-color: (any other colour)
so change your code to:
a.testclass
{
background: url(sprite.png) no-repeat -125px -671px;
display: block;
width: 378px;
height: 150px;
}
if you really need to erase that background-color (and therefore setting it to transparent) try other settings like
a.testclass
{
background-color: transparent;
}
However, IE8 does not like that so be aware to have some fix included for IE8.
