I'm having the following use case that I want to achieve in HTML
I've two div element with background red and blue. The blue div is added later of which a part overlaped with red div.
I have the option of "send to back" which sends the selected div to back of other div.
If I apply this to blue div and select blue div it should look like below image
Basically I'm trying to minic the functionality of Arrange --> Order --> Send to back of Google Presentation
I did try z-index with no success. I can use background-gradient with the overlaped part of blue div transparent but that will invole some calculations which I want to avoid.
How to acheive this in HTML?
Any help is appreciated.
Note: All div elements are placed with position: absolute
Update: The red div lies above the blue div as its z-index is higher than blue div. When red div is selected it should look like below (with border highlighted).
Now if I select the blue div a part of it that overlapes with red div does not appear (obviously since its z-index is lesser) but I want its border to appear when I select.it.
As you've commented, I guess what you need is this, also, just call a class on a div which you want to stack up.
Final Demo
I am not getting your question quiet well, but I assume you want to bring an element above another when it is clicked, than you can do it this way
Demo
Explanation:
What am doing here is, am simply applying z-index on the div you click using jQuery.
Demo 3 (As you updated your question)
Using border to mark the current selected div
$(".wrap div").click(function(){
$('.wrap div').removeAttr('style');
$(this).css({"z-index":"1", "border":"1px solid #000"});
});
Demo 2
Code Reference :
$(".wrap div").click(function(){
$(this).css("z-index","1");
});
.wrap {
position: relative;
}
.wrap div {
position: absolute;
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
}
.wrap div:nth-of-type(1) {
background: #f00;
left: 10px;
}
.wrap div:nth-of-type(2) {
background: #0f0;
left: 80px;
}
<div class="wrap">
<div></div>
<div></div>
</div>

I'm working on a site that has all of its pages basically "slide" around on the main landing page. So you basically start on a div with an ID of "main" that also has a class of "currentpage." If you click a nav menu item, the content slides away, and the next page's content slides into place. This new content's primary div would have a new id (let's say #about), and now the "currentpage" class is added to this div as well.
The thing is, the body tag has a background-image attached to it (it used to have a full screen video, but I set that to hide, and then there's this bg image behind it). I'd like to change the background image depending on which "page" you are on. At first, I set it up so that #about had a background-image set up, and so forth for the rest of the page IDs. The thing about this is that the content of the primary div is padded a whole bunch, so you would see the specified #about background image, but then you'd actually also still see that original image from the body tag behind it.
Thus, I'd like to change the actual body tag's background image property depending on which ID you're on.
I figured some means of checking if you're on a specified ID, as well as if the class for that div is set to "currentpage" would be step 1, with step 2 then changing the background image if that condition is true.
Here is what I have tried so far, to no avail:
Attempt 1:
if ($this.is('#about')) {
$('.bgimage').css({"background":"url(imageurlhere)"});
}
This didn't do anything.
Next, I found this old SO thread and tried to modify it just to see it in action to know if I was on the right path. Here's what I used:
Attempt 2:
if ($("#about").hasClass("currentpage")) {
$('#about').css({"background-color":"red"});
}
Unfortunately, this also didn't cause anything differently) when I went to About.
And yes, I had cleared cache out each time, and manually even went to the JS file to ensure it had the new code blocks each time.
Edit
Here is the basic page format:
<body class="video">
<div class="preload">Whole lot of stuff in here for a preload overlay</div>
<nav>Nav is here</nav>
<main>
<div id="pt-main" class="pt-perspective ">
<div class="page-1 currentpage" id="main"></div>
<div class="page-2" id="about"></div>
<div class="page-3" id="services"></div>
<div class="page-4" id="portfolio"></div>
<div class="page-5" id="contact"></div>
</div>
</main>
The "currentpage" class will go to a different div if the corresponding link in the nav is clicked. So, click About in the nav, currentpage class drops from #main and ends up in same div as #about
And then the CSS for the body tag is as follows:
.video {
background: url(../img/video_bg.jpg);
background-size: cover;
}
I basically want to make it so that background (image) of .video changes when you end up on #about, #services, #portfolio, etc.
TL;DR
Can anyone help me with this code block? How do I check if an div with a specific ID also has a class, and then modify the .bgimage CSS to change its background?
Edit 2:
I came up with a workaround for this. Here's what I did:
1) I set the overall background color to #000, removed the original bg-image altogether, and actually restored a full-screen video I'd previously hid
2) I edited each nav menu item to have a hidevid class, except for the Home link, which I made showvid
3) I created CSS for each "page" ID (ie #about {background-image: url(image);}
4) I created a new CSS class: .hidethis {display: none;}
5) I then implemented the following jquery:
$(document).ready(function(){
$(".hidevid").click(function(){
$("video").addClass("hidethis");
});
$(".showvid").click(function(){
$("video").removeClass("hidethis");
});
});
What this does is set the background to black, but that's not seen on the landing ("home") page, just the video. However, clicking a nav menu item will "slide" the next "page" into view, displaying its background image and changing the video to have a display: none property, basically hiding it and the extra content (the nav) just has a black background behind it.
Using vanilla JavaScript (pure JavaScript), you can check if a div has a particular class name and based on the results, change the css by doing this:
var x = document.getElementById('about');
var y = document.querySelector('.bgimage');
if (x.classList.contains('currentpage')){ // if #about has "currentpage" class, run the following
x.style.background = 'red'; //change background-color of #about to red
y.style.background = 'url(imageurlhere)'; // change background-image of .bgimage
}

your codes is wrong. true usage is this.
css('background-color','red')

I’m making a whole lot of assumptions and guesses. You only showed one css class. From the description it sounds like the problem is actually using CSS to cover the background, and that if it weren’t for that, there would be no need to change the class on the body. The basic solution, move the initial background from the body to the #main div, move the padding to the .page-1, .page-2 etc. divs. Also, if the background images are transparent also give a background-color.
I’m assuming the nav does not have a background image and stays put. I’m also assuming you already have the sliding of the sections in place, I didn’t show that but instead just a simple display none/block just to keep it simple. I also didn’t show the js (but you shouldn’t need to change the body class.) I also left the html alone.

margin: 0;
height: 100%;
}
nav {

background-color: #ccc;

I'm creating an HTML/CSS application, and I'm a bit stuck.
Let's say that I have 2 elements positioned next to eachother display: inline-block
Every element has again a couple of elements which are placed next to eachother.
See the following illustration that tries to explain it:
So, the image below describes 3 different levels of elements:
Level 1: Red - Outer element
Level 2: Yellow - Wrapper element
Level 3: Green - Content
In HTML, this could be constructed writting like the following:
<ul id="holder">
<li>
<div>
<div class="col">Col 1</div>
<div class="col">Col 2</div>
</div>
</li>
<li>
<div class="col">Col 1</div>
<div class="col">Col 2</div>
</li>
</ul>
The UL represents the red element, the LI represents the yellow elements and the DIV elements represents the green elements.
Now, let's say that our red element has a fixed width and I place the overflow on hidden. This means that when I resize the page, the elements on the right dissapear when they don't fit the page.
But here the problem arizes, when I do resize the window, and the window becomes too small to render everything, immediately, the latest LI element is not visible on the screen anymore.
Is there any CSS way to make sure that no the LI element are hidden but the DIV elements inside the LI? When both DIV elements are hidden, off course the LI element can be hidden aswell since it's empty?
If there's no CSS way to do this, anyone minds putting me in the right direction by using JavaScript or something else?
Here's a jsFiddle to explain it a bit more.
Kind regards
The li disappears from view because it's in display: inline-block.
As soon as the window isn't wide enough, it moves below the first li.
You can see this happen if you release the #holder's height (height:auto).
The solution is to add white-space : nowrap to force the li to stay in one line.
Updated fiddle :
https://jsfiddle.net/zLqfe4z8/4/
It's not a problem of your elements hiding because there's not enough width, it's because they're wrapping because there's not enough width (and then being hidden by the overflow: hidden).
You can see this happening if you remove the height constraint on your wrapper:
#holder { overflow: hidden; border: 1px solid red; }
The fix is simple, stop it from wrapping using white-space: nowrap:
#holder { white-space:nowrap; overflow: hidden; border: 1px solid red; height: 52px; }
So one of the buttons on my site's nav bar brings down a small grey tab from the top which tells you about the site. Here is the code I'm using for the animations:
var aboutMenu = function(){
$(".aboutButton").click(function(){
$("body").animate({top: "42px"}, 200);
$(".about").animate({top: "0px"}, 200);
});
}
$(document).ready(aboutMenu);
The idea is that the body of my website, along with all its content, moves down 42 pixels. This is whilst the content in the "about" class moves down so that it's visible on the screen. If you do click on the "About" button, all that happens is the grey tab moves down, but the body stays where it is. This would not usually be a problem, except the tab obscures the rest of the nav bar.
Here is some more relevant code (if needed):
HTML:
<div class = "about">
<p align = "center">placeholder text</p>
</div>
and the actual link:
<li> <a class = "aboutButton">About this website</a></li>
CSS:
.about{
background-color: gray;
top: -42px;
height: 42px;
position: fixed;
}
.about p{
color: white;
}
.aboutButton{
cursor: pointer;
}
As mentioned in my comment, to be able to animate top (or other positions for that matter), you need to set a position: ... (e.g. position: relative;.
You could try using a different way to call your function, e.g. add this attribute to your link: `onClick(aboutMenu())
Also try putting an allcontent div around everything and animating that, body tags aren't that good for animations
On the demo link below, I am using jQuery slideUp and you will notice after it slides up, there is a quick jump of the content.
Do you know why this is? My html is valid (with the exception of the select option not having a label attribute..which I am still figuring out...). Do I have something positioned incorrectly?
http://demo.phppointofsalestaging.com/index.php
(Click login --> Sales -->Show Item Grid THEN Hide Item Grid to see the bug)
this inline style
<div style="margin-top: 39px;" id="content">
and line 724 of unicorn.css
#content {
...
margin-top: -39px;
...
}
... are conflicting with each other.
If you remove both, the page doesn't jump.
You have set a margin-top on the content div of 39px. This is only visible when you slide down the item grid. It seems to 'jump' when sliding back up because of this margin. Try setting the margin to 0px;
<div id="content" style="margin-top:0px;">
I played around a little bit and this is being caused by the margin-top:39px on your #content div, if you remove that and use top:39px instead of margin-top:39px on the #content element instead it doesn't jerk either - but it also causes the button to jump a bit on slideUp and slideDown so you will need to tweak the css of the button wrapper area like so:
To fix the button jumping issue:
#show_hide_grid_wrapper {
position: relative;
text-align: right;
padding: 10px;
}
As prev. answers mention, you have margin-top 39px on #content. Setting it to 0 will solve the problem, but it will also remove your beautiful dark gray section above the content. To get it back, add this to your CSS:
#content:before {
content: '';
display: block;
width: 100%;
height: 39px;
background: YOUR GRAY COLOR;
}
I have a calendar, and when the user hovers over a cell, a large-ish info box appears with details for that date. I am having some trouble though making the info box disappear when the user moves away.
I basically want it so that when the mouse cursor moves out of the calendar cell which is hidden by the info box it will disappear. But I'm having trouble with this because mouseenter and mouseleave get messed up by having the info box as the top element.
So I tried to get around this by using "placeholder" divs that are transparent, have the same shape and location as the calendar cell beneath it, and have a z-index of 1000 so they are above the info box. I then apply the mouseenter and mouseleave events to these divs instead.
There's two problems with this though. One, I have now messed up my HTML semantically. The divs have no purpose but to get around what seems to be a limitation. And secondly, they mess up my jQuery UI selection (I've applied it to the calendar cells - a click no longer selects a cell).
Is there a clean way to handle displaying an info box? There will be no user interaction with the info box -- it's just to display information.
EDIT: Here is some code:
<li>
<div class="day-content">
</div>
<div class="day-content-placeholder">
</div>
</li>
and CSS
li
{ position: absolute; width: 15%; height: 20%; top: ... left: ... }
.day-content
{ position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; }
.day-content-placeholder
{ position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; z-index: 1000; }
.popup
{ position: absolute; width: 300%; height: 300%; left: -150%; top: -150%; z-index: 500; }
and Javascript
var popup;
$('.week-content-placeholder')
.mouseenter(function()
{
popup = $('<div class="popup">'+a_lot_of_text+'</div>').insertAfter(this);
})
.mouseleave(function()
{
popup.remove();
});
That's not the exact code, but you get the idea. This works okay, but like I said, since .week-content-placeholder is above .week-content, the selection capability with jQuery UI doesn't work properly on .week-content.
You could modify your solution with the transparent "placeholder" divs in the following way:
Have the "placeholder" dive underneath the "calendar cell", using {zIndex: -1}.
When you enter a calendar cell, unhide the large "content" div and set {zIndex: 1000} on the "placeholder" div to bring it to the top.
Have a "mouseout" event on the placeholder div that will hide the "content" div and set {zIndex: -1} for the the "placeholder" cell.
Rather than create the "placeholder" cells in the HTML, you could create one in the javascript and move it to the postion of each "calendar" cell as you "mouseIn" it. You could also duplicate any "click" events on the "calendar cell" onto this one as well.
Let me know if this works.
The trick here is to make the info box a child of the cell:
<div id='box'>
Normal content
<div id='inner'>
This big box obscures everything in the cell!
</div>
</div>
The inner box is hidden until the hover occurs. Notice how with CSS we can make the box bigger than the cell itself with negative margins.
#box
{
width:100px;
height:100px;
margin:100px;
border:solid 2px darkblue;
position:relative;
}
#box #inner
{
display:none;
position:absolute;
background-color:#eeee00;
top:-10px;
left:-10px;
width:120px;
height:120px;
}
And you can use normal jquery hover because the hover covers box the box and it's child:
$('#box').hover(function(){
$('#inner').show();
},function(){
$('#inner').hide();
});
Here's it running:
http://jsfiddle.net/RbqCT/
You can create the info box dynamically as you do in your code.
Here's 15 different plugins that let you do this with jquery:
http://www.webdesignbooth.com/15-jquery-plugins-to-create-an-user-friendly-tooltip/
You could track mousemouse and use the offsetLeft + width and offsetTop + height of your hover trigger against the event.pageX and event.pageY to compare.
If you make this work as you described a tiny mouse movement that remains within the calendar cell (which is not even visible) leaves the popup in place, but a slightly larger movement that exits the cell makes the popup disappear.
The user sees only movement within the popup itself — small movement within the popup leaves it in place; large movement makes it go away.
I suggest triggering the disappearance of the popup on exiting the popup div itself. Any movement that remains within the "tip" panel leaves it up. I think that (1) this is better usability and (2) it avoids the whole problem with the obscured calendar cell event handling.
You could do that by adding a .mouseleave() handler to the div when you create it.
