Browsers! Browsers! Browsers!
The raison d’être of web design is the end users. After all, a designer created the web page so that the users could browse it, interact with it, and use it. If they are not comfortable with the web page or the page does not display accurately, it is logical that users find fault with [...]
Positioning considerations
So, what are the things we should take into consideration when we decide to position the elements on our web page? The layout of the content and the purpose of the document are important. Do we want the content to use the default flow and reflow when resizing the window? If so, then we should [...]
Static positioning
Static positioning is the default positioning of elements on the page. It sources the element as in the HTML and places them linearly one after another. The elements cannot be repositioned and do not have defined coordinates for the element’s position. However, the <body> element is positioned and provides the coordinates for the child elements [...]
Attributes and positions
An HTML attribute or a style property is called a parameter in web-design parlance. For instance, the id parameter means either an id attribute that can used with the <layer> tag or the id style property. However, property means style property. The <layer> tag takes on pixels as the unit of measurement for attributes that [...]
Aligning text and images in cells
Text is often wrapped around an image, by floating that image either to the left or right of the page. If you float the image to the left, then text will wrap around the right and vice versa. The CSS float property is very similar to the align attribute in HTML. Floating an image takes [...]
Layering text and absolutely positioned images
Another area that concerns many web designers is the layering of text and images. It is possible to create overlapping images and text that use up very little bandwidth. Two layers of overlapping strings are used. The div element positions the block absolutely on the page. Each span element positions the individual elements within the [...]
Combining absolute and relative positioning
Absolutely positioned div elements produce hard, static layouts. They also break in different screen sizes. Relatively positioned div elements adjust to the screen sizes and provide more flexible layouts. Therefore, web designers use absolutely positioned div elements inside relatively positioned div elements to take advantage of the features of both these types of positioning techniques. [...]
The z-index property and images
The zindex property of the element controls the layering. If the text has to be placed on the image, the z-index property can be set to 2 and the z-index property of the text can be set to 1. The text will then overlap the image if the coordinates of the div elements are the [...]
