hello zrz,

1. search a bit in this thread. Could be something like "height:auto;" in #menu in your css.

2. he don't have what your talking about. He always have the same photo background. But you can do by choosing a background for your home and not for the other pages (when you edit a page, right bottom corner).

3. she create a new div element, so a div in his index.php and the styling of this div in the style.css this way:

1. div#hometext { background-color: white; padding: 25px; }

4. search the forum for "drag the image" or something like that…

question:

www.zachzollars.com

... ok so i have the text box working where i want it, and i have the background of the text box white, like i want. But i can't figure out how to make a white boarder around the text box. Notice how the white box backs right up against the letters. I want it to be more like my menu, where there is some breathing room around the words.

how do i do this.

also.

i want my subpages also to have a white box around the content and pictures, and then have the static background. how do i do this.

one last thing...

is there a way to put drop shadows behind my white boxes?

thanks

alright i figured out the first question.
it was a problem with the padding.

any help for the second two questions?

Someone else did this... you have to search the forum for this...

As for drop shadow effect you can use a jquery solution.

3. she create a new div element, so a div in his index.php and the styling of this div in the style.css this way:

1. i have the horizontal format and i would like to have in every project this box with an text over the picture...
what do i have to write instead of the hometext?

2. how can i move the pics a little more to right?
(i do not like the pic is 5mm under the menu)

i hope someone can help me with that. :)

Hi jnine,
you can move the pics to the right by editing your margin in line 75

#content {
height: 100%;
margin: 0 0 0 250px;
top: 0;
}

you can use image caption to create text for every image...

thank you :)
i will try it :)

hi, i have tried to find how i could do the thing i have on my STARTSEITE...

http://zuest-gruengestaltung.ch/index.php?/startseite/startseite/

i want to have transparent text boxes over the picture, where i can write in... i haven't see anything in the forum that describes how i get to make the text in a transparent box. it is not working with image caption.

i have found this on the web:

div.background
{
width:500px;
height:250px;
background: ?
border:2px solid black;
}
div.transbox
{
width:400px;
height:180px;
margin:30px 50px;
background-color:#ffffff;
opacity:0.6;
filter:alpha(opacity=60); /* For IE8 and earlier */
}
div.transbox p
{
margin:30px 40px;
font-weight:bold;
color:#000000;
}

This is some text that is placed in the transparent box.
This is some text that is placed in the transparent box.
This is some text that is placed in the transparent box.
This is some text that is placed in the transparent box.
This is some text that is placed in the transparent box.

i wonder if i can but this in the indexhibit css file and modify it. i have tried it but nothing happens.

if someone could help me that i can go on with playing around, that would be nice. thanx*
