Hello,
I try to get a pages to display the text over a background image.
The image is a picture on the top of the page and a piece at at the right site of the page.
Now I want to have the text that I place in the content to float over the picture so the picture stays in sight.
I hope someone can help me with this
Thanks, Joost
Background image with floating texs
Re: Background image with floating texs
I don't think it's very hard to create what you want. If I only could understand it.
Almost any object will 'float' on a background (image).
Maybe you could post a link to an example, or post an image showing what you're trying to accomplish.

This is one of the places where position: relative/absolute come in handy...

Re: Background image with floating texs
When you put the {content} inside the div with background you're almost there.
Then you need to remove remove (or make transparent) the background color of your paragraphs in css.
Code: Select all

Hi,
Thanks for your update.
I placed {content} directly in the div.
like this <div style="position: relative; background-image:url(http://petersedieeet.nl/uploads/images/eten.jpg); width: 999px; height: 378px;
{content} ">
Now my text disputed en the footer is displayed above the image.
Strange.
Is there a way to have the text start below the picture.
I tried to make a margin in <p> so it would come down a bit.
But it disappeared all together.
I can see the changes in the editor window, but on the site there is nothing to see
What am I doing wrong?
I hope you can help
Thanks

<div style="position: relative; background-image:url(http://petersedieeet.nl/uploads/images/eten.jpg); width: 999px; height: 378px;
">{content}</div>
Not the {content} IN the <div... > tag but between the <div...> {content}</div> tags

Re: Background image with floating texs
Hi,chamged the settings to;
<div style="position: relative; background-image:url(http://petersedieeet.nl/uploads/images/eten.gif)"; width: 999px; height: 378px;
{content}</div>
Now the text is back but I cannot place it in the right possition.
Changing the margin does not help
<div style="position: relative; background-image:url(http://petersedieeet.nl/uploads/images/eten.gif)"; width: 999px; height: 378px;

Re: Background image with floating texs
Hello,
I missed that one,
Now it starts looking good.
The only problem thats left is that I get a repeat of the image
Witch is strange because I have a no-repeat in the line like this
<div style="position: relative; background-image:url(http://petersedieeet.nl/uploads/images/eten.gif)";background-repeat=no-repeat; width: 999px; height: 378px;">{content}</div>
or is this not the right syntax?
thanks so far
regards Joost

Re: Background image with floating texs
css does not use the equal sign '=' but the colon ':'.
