Hello everyone,
I just created an account on this forum because I have a layout problem. I hope you have some suggestions how to solve it.
On the end of this post you can find a simplified version of the website I'm working on. The thing that I want to change, is that the background picture (or in this case color) of the yellow field (div id="c") is shifted 100 px down. So the yellow field should 'start' 100 px lower... As you can see in the code I tried to manage this with the background position statement but this doesn't seem to work..
Do you have any suggestions on what might work?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Knyn

Code:

<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
body {text-align = center;}
 
#container{
position:relative;
width = 600px;
height = auto;
background-color=black;
}
 
#header{
background-color= red;
width = 600px;
height = 200px;
}
 
#menu{
width = 145;
float:left;
background-color= lime;
height = auto;
}
 
 
#rechts{
float:right;
background-color= brown;
width = 450;}
}
 
#c {
float: left;
background-color= yellow;
background-image:url('bg_c.jpg');
/*background-position ypos:100px;*/
width = 295;
heigth = auto;
z-index:99;}
 
#d {
float: right;
background-color= blue;
width = 145;
height = 400;}
 
#footer{
float: left;
background-color= purple;
width = 295;
}

Hi Knyn, Welcome to the

Hi Knyn,
Welcome to the forums.
The first thing I notice in your css is that you used = instead of :

Quote:

body {text-align = center;}

#container{
position:relative;
width = 600px;
height = auto;
background-color=black;
}

Should be:

body {text-align:center;}
 
#container{
position:relative;
width:600px;
height:auto;
background-color:black;
}

To push your yellow box down you should be able to use margin.

#c {
float: left;
background-color: yellow;
background-image:url('bg_c.jpg');
width:295;
heigth:auto;
z-index:99;
margin-top:100px;
}

You can also position background images within their container if need be.

Your question may have already been answered, search and read before you ask.
