I am working on a small VA project and I am attempting to pull stats from another website. The only way I have been able to find out how to do this, is by using an iFrame with the clip function.
Website is: NWGlobalVA.com
Now the Issue I am having is if you go to the main page and re-size the browser in anyway it pushes behind the map element. I have tried everything in my knowledge and research to make it re-size with the container.
Below is the code I use with the iFrame and CSS to do the clipping. Any help would be much more appreciated then you will understand. I have been trying to do this for a couple days now. Ideally I would rather just get the information once every 15 minutes and pass it to my database. However on the website none of the tables are defined and I would know how to go about that.
<style>
.iframeb {
position: absolute;
left:-384px;
right:0px;
top: -145px;
clip: rect(190px, 625px, 350px, 400px);
}</style>
<iframe width="890" height="1900" src="http://fscloud-infotool.de/index.php?page=vasystem&subpage=vadetails&id=10277" class="iframeb" scrolling="no" frameborder="0"></iframe>
The way I deal with iframe size is with javascript (jquery):
I calculated the original iframe aspect ratio by taking the width/height. So in your case: 890/1900.
<script>
function size_iFrame()
{
// If the width and height of the iframe are set
// as attributes (<iframe width='890' height='1900'>),
// you can have the js calculate it for you.
// aspect= $('iframe').attr('width') / $('iframe').attr('height');
aspect= 0.47;
$('iframe').css('width', '100%');
$('iframe').css('height', $('iframe').width() / aspect);
}
$(document).ready(function()
{
size_iFrame();
$(window).resize(function()
{
size_iFrame();
});
}
</script>
This will fit the iframe to the width of its container and give it the same aspect ratio as it initially had.
Edit: To answer your question, i'd call it from the ready callback and setup and window resize callback to call every time the screen size changes. I edited my code above to show this.
Edit2: As #mugé points out, you'll also need to remove your iframe css styling for my method to work.
In responsive design, I assign the iframe a container sized inside the CSS. For example,
CSS
.iframe_container {
display: inline;
float: left;
width: 89%; //whatever width you want
}
You will need to eliminate your .iframeb absolute, right, left positionings, because the container will take care of it all, unless you are talking about the 'List' parameters on top of the map, I would try to use #media to arrange clean lists according to screen sizes for the .iframeb class.

I'm pretty new to web-development and web-design, and I'm working on a website for a company right now(www.momentium.no). They want to have the background image(s) at the top recognize the browsers window-size, so that the image(s) fills the whole screen and don't show the content below before you scroll down when you load the website.
Could anyone of you check this out? Would be great to get a little bit of help!
Thanks,

Setting the height to 100% using CSS will work, but you'll have to revise your HTML structure in order to maintain it's flow when the window is resized.
Otherwise, you can try the following code snippets:
JS:
var $imageWrapper = $('#background-image'),
$contentSpacer = $('section#wrapper > header'),
// Some buffer value, adjust this to get the rest of the content aligned properly
buffer = 200;
// Set the div height on pageload
$(document).ready(function() {
var windowHeight = $(window).height();
$imageWrapper.height( windowHeight );
$contentSpacer.height( windowHeight );
});
// Change the div height on window resize
$(window).resize(function() {
var $this = $(this),
thisHeight = $this.height();
// Set the height of the image container to the window height
$imageWrapper.height( thisHeight );
$contentSpacer.height( thisHeight - buffer );
});
CSS:
#background-image {
background-size: cover;
// Change this to the minimum height your page will support
min-height: 600px;
}
The rest of the code you have seems correct, so adding these should fix things up. A couple of things to keep in mind here:
The JS isn't placing any limitation on the height being applied here, so the CSS will still apply even if the window is resized to 10px height. Most designs have a minimum height/width before breaking, so using a min-height on your #background-image div might be a good idea.
Check the browser support before implementing, if you need to support one of the unsupported browsers, you'll need to either write a fallback or restructure your code in such a way that it degrades gracefully. IE9+, Chrome21+ and FF26+ should be good enough though.
Looks like you're using a spacer in the main section to ensure that the page content comes in after the main slider. The structure of the page can be modified so that you don't have to modify two element heights. As I mentioned at the beginning, you can probably use the pure CSS solution if you restructure.
You can have 2 solutions :
As Pete says, you can use "background-size" css3, but it will not be compatible for older browser
You can use javascript with $(window).height() and $(window).width
The Only Way is create a repponsive design for your company..all the problem will be solved by responsive design...
Change the image size depends upon the browser window size Other wise
change the image to another one also possible
You can set the height of your "background-image" div to 100%, it will work.
Check this code:
#background-image {
width: 100%;
height: 100% !important;
position: absolute !important;
overflow: hidden;
text-align: center;
background: #000;
}
I'm trying to use this plugin Galleria in its responsive mode, which basically means it will re draw itself based on its container size as the window re-sizes. The demo on the link I've provided shows a really good example. You can see that, as you resize your window, the whole gallery adjusts accordingly. Now my issue is, the plugin won't let me initialize the gallery unless a height has been specified for the DOM element that is used as its container. This means, I've had to write a whole lot of javascript code to respond window resizes - it destroys the point of it having a responsive mode quite a bit - but in the website above, nowhere can I find an explicit height specified. Can someone explain to me where I'm going wrong?
I figured it out by myself. Posting my answer -
When initializing the gallery - specify your height in percentages - as below. I'm guessing it takes 50% of window height as its value in this case. This way, you don't need to explicitly specify heights anywhere and it works as advertised
Galleria.run('#gallery', {responsive:true, height:0.5, debug:false});
Galleria needs a height to initialise correctly. You can do this either via CSS or JS.
If you would like it to fill the width and height of the screen, I would recommend setting a width and height of 100% via CSS. And its parent container needs to be 100%. See below.
**JS:**
Galleria.run('#galleria', {
responsive:true,
showCounter:true,
thumbnails:false,
trueFullscreen:true,
});
**CSS:**
#galleria{
width:100%;
height: 100%;
position: fixed;
z-index: 9999;
top:0px;
bottom: 0px;
}
body,html{
height:100%;
width:100%;
}
The height option ( if it's < 2.0) is relative to the width of the container. So height:0.5 would have a height that is half the width of the container (w=2, h=1).
height:1.5 would result in (w=2, h=3)
To keep it responsive you can use max-width rather than width when styling the container.
If the height option is set to 2.0 or more, it is interpreted as pixels. So height:2.0 will only be 2px tall.
I am trying to add the thumbnails section of the js gallery in the footer of a web page. I've never broken up a gallery before and figured it's the only way to achieve this look
http://img69.imageshack.us/img69/5923/bsade.jpg
The link for what I have now is this: http://www.marisaraskin.com/two.html.
(The borders are just guides for me while I'm still working on it)
The CSS code for the thumbnails container is:
.galleria-thumbnails-container {
height: 100px;<br>
bottom: 0;<br>
position: absolute;<br>
left: 10px;<br>
right: 10px;<br>
z-index: 1;<br>
border:1px solid yellow;<br>
}
I'm not sure what my other options are for this. I was maybe thinking overlapping the content container over the footer with z-index. Though I'm iffy about that especially because everyone's screen resolution is different. I can post more code per request. I am not sure what else you need to see as of now.
In case you need to know I'm using a gallery js called "Galleria" (classic).
If I were you I'd modify the js script so that you can populate blocks that are not contiguous in the actual HTML code, but here's a rough approach to doing it all through css:
remove position:relative from #container
remove position:relative from .galleria-container
add position:absolute to .galleria-stage and remove left and right
positioning. Also, add top:90px (or something close to that) and
give it a width: width:920px.
change .galleria-thumbnails-container to use absolute positioning and
use the bottom:___ property to set it where you belong.
Basically what you're doing here is removing all the relatively positioning in the parent elements of the gallery so that the gallery segments all all being positioned with respect to the page rather than any of their parent elements. Once this is done, you can just modify the absolute positioning and width of the stage block and the thumbnail block so that they sit where you want them.
Is there an html / css / javascipt way to maintain a <div> at a constant size in the face of the user's zooming the page in and out? That is, using control-plus to increase text size and control-minus to reduce it.
EDIT: The kicker, I guess, is that I want the content of the <div> to stay the same size, too.
Thanks!
EDIT: My goal was (and is) to keep an AdSense <div> from expanding so much as to obscure a lot of the real content on the page. But come to find out (thank you #thirtydot) there's really no good way to do this. The answer, for me (thank you #Neal!): give the <div> overflow:scroll so as to sacrifice its content rather than the content I'm trying to show.
.box {
background: red;
width: 5vw;
height: 10vh;
position: absolute;
top: 10vh;
left: 5vw;
}
<div class="box"></div>
There is no good way (read: reliable) to do this. Sorry.
What you're asking for basically boils down to detecting the zoom level of the browser, and there's a great answer here (confirming just how difficult this is):
How to detect page zoom level in all modern browsers?
As stated in that answer, there is a "kinda" cross-browser crazy way involving the use of Flash, but there are downsides:
It uses Flash.
It's not reliable if the user loads your page already zoomed in.
It uses Flash. Yes, this is so bad that I said it twice. Think of all those iPhones/iPads.
Anyway, it's here:
http://blog.sebastian-martens.de/2009/12/how-to-detect-the-browser-zoom-level-change-browser-zoo/
I am not sure what you mean, just use css:
div#id {
width: 100px; /*or some other #*/
height: 100px; /*or some other #*/
}
html:
<div id="id">some content</div>
To make the div size invariant of zooming (But not contents inside it) do the following :
Inside your css for that div :
min-width: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
This will freeze the width, you can do the same for height too.
You should just be ablemto set a width and height in css using a px measurement
Eg
div
{
width:100px; height:200px;
}
I read in another post a solution that I didn't test yet...
Maintain div size (relative to screen) despite browser zoom level
that's the used javascript:
//This floating div function will cause a div to float in the upper right corner of the screen at all times. However, it's not smooth, it will jump to the proper location once the scrolling on the iPhone is done. (On my Mac, it's pretty smooth in Safari.)
function flaotingDiv(){
//How much the screen has been zoomed.
var zoomLevel = ((screen.width)/(window.innerWidth));
//By what factor we must scale the div for it to look the same.
var inverseZoom = ((window.innerWidth)/(screen.width));
//The div whose size we want to remain constant.
var h = document.getElementById("fontSizeDiv");
//This ensures that the div stays at the top of the screen at all times. For some reason, the top value is affected by the zoom level of the Div. So we need to multiple the top value by the zoom level for it to adjust to the zoom.
h.style.top = (((window.pageYOffset) + 5) * zoomLevel).toString() + "px";
//This ensures that the window stays on the right side of the screen at all times. Once again, we multiply by the zoom level so that the div's padding scales up.
h.style.paddingLeft = ((((window.pageXOffset) + 5) * zoomLevel).toString()) + "px";
//Finally, we shrink the div on a scale of inverseZoom.
h.style.zoom = inverseZoom;
}
//We want the div to readjust every time there is a scroll event:
window.onscroll = flaotingDiv;
I have a flex component like this:
<s:Application xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
...
width="100%"
height="100%"
creationComplete="init()">
.......
<components:NavigationBar id="nagivationBar"
left="0" bottom="0" />
This is supposed to show at the bottom left of the screen considering that parent container fills the screen.
The behaviour I just described shows perfectly with Safari
with Chrome it shows correctly if the download bar beneath is not visible but as soon as the download bar has something it covers the bottom part of it.
and FireFox seems to always hide like 50 pixels or so from the bottom of the screen.
It seems like every browser renders the 100% height in its own way.
What is your recommended best way to overcome this? I can add a 100 pixel margin at the bottom but it's not something I want to do in this application.
Try something like this in the <head></head> section of the HTML page that loads your Flex Application:
<style type="text/css">
html, body{
width: 100%; /* make the body expand to fill the visible window */
height: 100%;
padding: 0 0 0 0;
margin: 0 0 0 0;
overflow: hidden;
}
</style>
Not sure it will help in your case but it's easy to try.
You could wrap the output in a containing <div>, then using YUI's getClientRegion, and a resize event for good measure, set the containing div's CSS height property to the value which YUI has determined the available viewport vertical space.
Sorry the solution is an outside-of-Flex one, but it'll work.
Edit: I meant 'getViewportHeight()' not 'getClientRegion()', sorry, check out the APi docs though, there's plenty of goodies in there for this sort of stuff.
Flex is just a flash component in a web page. Its size depends of what is outside of flex. I don't think you'll get a proper answer unless you post HTML/JS code surrounding flex app.
PS. From my experience working with browser height may be very troublesome.
this normally happens when you have one or more positioning elements in a page. Check your code to see if you have used the position element anywhere else in your code, if so are they different, i.e one relative and the other absolute, if so this could be your problem, its reccomended that they are all the same, ie all relative
