Ok, there's been no suggestions so far, so maybe haven't really summed it up properly;
If I absolutely position the section with the class="container" using an extra class or id only applied to that <div>, it positions itself outside it's relatively positioned ancestor the <div> with the class="band banner" when it should position itself within the "band banner" <div>.
I'm at a loss as to why, anyone got any ideas?
Here,s the test site again, http://test-site.zymichost.com
I'm developing a website using the skeleton boilerplate, and want to have a Flexslider slideshow background for a certain section, the band slideshow.
There are four main bands on the index page; header, slideshow, body and footer.
The only ones I've put in the example below is the slideshow banner, as you can see in the example there is the slideshow and the Latest News block, I need to have the Latest news block over the slideshow, but I need the slideshow to still be within the flow of the document because there are more elements similar to the Latest News elements below this slideshow banner that I don't want to overlap.
Here's my dilemma, if I absolutely position the Flexslider slideshow the Latest News element overlaps the slideshow, great, but so does the band below it (body) and its containing elements. Not great.
If I use absolute positioning on the Latest News section it stays outside the Slideshow banner (even if I set its containing element to position:relative;) something that has been confusing me, and if I use negative positioning (boooo hiss) it messes up when the browser re-sizes. Pants.
Here's the test site URL:

I haven't included my code here because it would make the post a bit massive.
Like I said it only contains the slideshow banner, but I'll add more as required.
This might be something glaringly obvious but It's doing my head in, any help is appreciated.
Absolutely positioned elements don't take up space within their parent element, which is why your section.container appears below div.band.banner, but it still flows as if it was relative. Give it actual position (presumably top and left) to have it show over top of your banner image.
I am unclear what you mean by "band below body", but this is how it looks like on my end

I'm trying to use fullpage.js (https://alvarotrigo.com/fullPage/) in order to realize a website with a particular section slider, with the requirement that the sections do not use the full height of the website.
This is a demo of the effect:
gif demo
I'm using the fp-auto-height option in order to realize the effect. The problem is I would like to give a preview of both the upper and the lower section's image, when I'm on a section, and I'd like to vertically center the active section.
The text that is on the top and on the bottom of the section would then appear after I scroll to a certain section, and therefore the previews should regard only the image and not the relative text.
The creator of the script advised me to ask here since it's a matter of CSS, but I've tried multiple combinations and still couldn't find a good solution.
Wondering how I can achieve the following effect on a website I'm building:
Div with 100vw width and 100vh height (we'll call this #container2) hides to the right of the home page (we'll call the home page #container1).
Moving mouse towards the right edge of the page causes #container2 to peek out.
If the user clicks on the visible portion of #container2, it slides all the way to the left, fully obscuring #container1.
The user is now on a new page with a corresponding URL, where they can scroll down and view more content.
I've got the first 3 steps more or less figured out. What I need help with is figuring out the best way to:
Handle the URL transition from site.com into site.com/newpage during the sliding animation
How to dynamically load the new page's content to the #container2 once the page transition happens, so the user can scroll down and see the new pages content if they click into it, but don't have to load the content if they choose to stay on the homepage.
Making it so if someone types or is linked directly to site.com/newpage, they will see the same thing that someone who started on the home page, clicked #container2, and watched the transition animation sees (but without showing a page transition).
I don't have any code snippets to show because I'm not really sure where to start. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. If possible, I'd like to use a vanilla javascript solution, as I've managed to make all the other features on the site run without JQuery. If JQuery is the only way to do this though, I'd still love to hear the solution.
There are a lot of ways you could do this. My intuition would be to have only one page that has different url fragments. Your question is fairly broad so my answer will also be broad.
One approach would be to use the target pseudo-class in css. All you need to do is make container2 a link that adds fragment to the end of the url that matches the classname of said container. You could have a some style for :hover that makes the container slide out and some settings for :target that brings the container to the center of the page. Container2 could have have a second section beneath the fold that contains the rest of the content for the page.
You could do something very similar with javascript by adding and removing classes from the various elements, but using the target pseudo class will help with your last bullet point. If a user goes directly to the link with the fragment, they will see the page with that container displayed.
I hope that gives you a place to start. Here is some info about the target pseudo-class.
I am developing a mobile web application using jQuery and i have been requested to have each page transition into the next with an animation where the page is "split in half", then have the upper part slides up and the bottom part slides down, thus revealing the next page.
I have a small idea, but i dont seem to have the knowledge to get trough:
2 Canvas with display: none, each width width: 100%, height: 50%. - Check
Have the actual display be rendered into said canvas's - I have not the slightest of ideas.
Ajax the next page in a div below both canvas's - Check
Slide the canvas's in the respective directions - Check
Set the canvas's to display: none and restore them to their original positions - Check
Any thoughts? I'm open to use any other framework appart from jQuery, if that's the need. I am also open to change my canvas idea into something else.
EDIT:
As for clarification imagine the page to be a closet, but a vertical one so its doors (the actual page) will slide into the roof and the floor respectively (Its not the greatest of comparisons, but please bear with me) and thus let you see and interact with the content of the closet (The next page). This will go on and on until the application's workflow ends at the last screen, as there will be no back button.
I'm pretty sure I know what you want. You have multiple pages in your registration/form process and instead of having the old fadein/fadeout or sliding effects, you want the top half to slide up and the bottom half to slide down. In order to do this, I'd dump the canvas idea. I don't think that there's an easy way to do it using canvas as of right now. You could try using the html2canvas script, but it's not 100% accurate when it comes to rendering things like this.
As an alternative, I'd recommend using the following process. As a preface, make sure that every step in your form has its own container div (called something obvious like "step-wrap" or "step-container"). Then, when you begin the animation, the first thing to do is to duplicate the current step-wrap, calling it something like step-wrap-animation. Give the original wrap, step-wrap, a height of 50% and position the duplicate below the first with the same height of 50%. Both of the divs should have styling that has an overflow of hidden. Make sure, also, that you set the scrollTop of the duplicate div to scroll to the bottom so that it looks like a continuation of the first div. Everything from here should be smooth sailing.
Second, once you have everything in the first step working, start the animation process. You can do this however you want now that we have the splitting functionality figured out. Make sure that before you start splitting the two divs apart you put the next step behind the previous so that it unravels.
Essentially, what you need to do is:
Duplicate the div
Position both divs (the original and the duplicate) so that both the heights equal 50% and they look like continuations of each other
Animate the top div up, bottom div down
Here's a basic fiddle illustrating how something like this should work. Click on the rendered screen to get the animation going.
Take a look at backbone.js and marionette.js based on backbone.js.
backbone.js is MVC framework where you can define separate views. Marionette is an extension which supports regions and switching views based on whatever you want. Inside switching logic you can easily implement your transitions. Very generic answer but perhaps it will help you to get started.
I have a jQuery conundrum that I'm not sure can be resolved. Inside a content slider I have absolutely positioned divs creating a tool-tip style pop-up on hover. Because the containing content slider overflow must be set to hidden, the tool-tip pop-up gets cut off where it overflows. I would like the pop-up to display in full when overlapping the slider it is contained within. If anyone has a workaround for this I'd be very appreciative!
Here's a link to my working file from which you can see the problem and the code.
Many thanks for any advice.
Your animation inside 'slidesContainer' relies on overflow:hidden so the large image doesn't stick out of the div and the only way for you to get the balloons pop out is to remove that overflow:hidden and make it visible
I don't think you can have the two at the same time
Right, so I don't think there was a straight forward solution so what I did was change the script to refer to div IDs instead of referring to the 'next' div. I moved the pop-up div's outside the slide element and absolutely positioned them relative to the page rather than the link. It's more long winded but works fine! Just means you need to refer individually to each pop-up div in the script. Thanks for you help anyway!
I don't even know what I want to do would be called
Please take a quick look at this page:
http://www.philsalesses.com/plasma-pong/
You'll see the title Plasma Pong and an image under it, on the left side. When I scroll the article, I'd like it to stay put while the page scrolls. However, you'll notice when you get the bottom of the page, there is a footer and there wouldn't be enough room for the title and image if I just made it completely static.
I'd like that to stay put until the footer hits, then scroll. When you scroll back up the page, it will scroll a little bit, until there is room, then stay put again. The same effect, but in reverse. Any idea what to look up how I could do this?
Set the titles css position to fixed. Then use javascript to detect a scroll event when certain criteria are met reset it to an absolute position so that it stays above the footer. Then when remove the absolute positioning when the page is scrolled away from the footer. To see a working example go to quirksmode.org. In his articles he has the effect you are looking for.
