AHHH I need help on my webpage.

body {
	background-image: url(../art/things-bg.jpg);
	background-color: #000000;

WebPage

	  I am not great with PhP, so this site is done in text. If anyone has any suggestions on how to do logins and posting that would help a good bit. This is a site for the Pantheon UO shard. I wanted a truly interactive shard making use of such things as housing laying around Yew. Instead of getting lazy and making them player rentable or buyable houses. I am going to implement NPCs that can be killed, stolen from and collect things in their houses. Also they can be part of the upcoming trick or treat event for halloween. There is little to no staff interaction on this shard unless you page. All events are automatic. <br />

	  PantheonUO is a WIP (Work In Progress) and is not near completion.

Lol...

That is a POL forum (POL is a ultima online (ultima online is a mmorpg) server) you may be confusing this web site with another one.

This is not a web design forum.

search on google for "Web design forum" and ask in the results

Nope, I am quite aware of this. I have been here for quite a while and am very familiar with pol. CSS is a script and it is for a website related to a pol server. But thanks for the comment anyhow. 8)

Yeah, I know CSS, I'm also a web designer.

But it's a question of organization, while there are people here that knows CSS, this is a POL forum.

Even your website being about POL, your question is about CSS/WebDesign and maybe HTML (I didn't read the question very well).

I gave a quick look at your site, but can't seem to find what's wrong.
I use Firefox 3.x on Gentoo Linux, can you explain your problem better?

There is that black bar at the top. I am trying to get tit behind the content of the site. For looks really. So instead of pushing the site down. I want it to just fall behind everything.

You could try describing the problem more clearily, so I (and others) wouldn't have to debug e.g. what is the name of the container you want to modify etc.

Anyways, if I understood and read correctly, I suggest you to modify #liners to look like this:

It may need polishing with float statement, this I did not test myself.

Code: Select all

#liners
{
    display: absolute;
    background: #cde url(../art/line.jpg) repeat-x 100% 0;
    height: 128px;
    z-index:-1;
}

Ah ok, that did not do it but its the right idea. I want the liner container NOT to push the mastercontainer down. I want the liner container to fall behind the mastercontainer.

That should do, I think:

Code: Select all

#liners
{
    position: absolute;
    width: 100%;
    background: #cde url(../art/line.jpg) repeat-x 100% 0;
    height: 128px;
    z-index:-1;
}

One more thing, so it ends up like this:

Code: Select all

#liners
{
    display: absolute;
    background: #cde url(line0000.jpg) repeat-x 100% 0;
    height: 128px;
    margin-bottom: -128px;
}
Tested using Opera 9.51, Firefox 3 and Internet Explorer 7 - works.

If only I did no other changes...

For ncrsn:
"display: absolute" is not valid CSS. You should use "position: absolute", instead.

Good point. So I had a memory failure and the end result can be trimmed even more.
