Re: [css-d] centered nav over an image /?
http://ecoitsf.com/test.html I would like a background image to sit behind the nav at 100% of the page. Hello, Have you tried to put a div containing your navigation and, inside that div, have a background-image property defined pointing to your image? What kind of image? Do you intend to repeat over the x-axis ? Regards, Márcio ps- Note as well, that despite the fact that it works, div align, I believe, as been deprecated. You can give a width to your element, and add margin:0 auto; for centering it. __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

I will play with that idea. I did try to use nested div's with the background-color set and did not see a result. Matthew P.

This is where having a link helps. It sounds like you're perhaps using floats to create your navigation (which would then cause your container (div?,ul?) to have a hieght of 0. If you add overflow: hidden or an explicit height to that container, the background should have an effect. ---Tim __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

I believe the url in the original post leads us to the only sample for the page. http://ecoitsf.com/test.html Ah. Missed that. And even though the method used is display: inline, overflow: hidden still appears to be the solution. When I tested it out (on either the div or the ul) it gives it height so that assigning a background color becomes useful. ---Tim __ css-discuss [cs...@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
