I want to have a static footer image with 5 buttons for navigation in my mobile phone website. The image is here http://www.pintum.com.au/jm/footer3a.jpg. The blue icons should be the default, the yellow icon should only be visible for the hover or active state.
I want to know how can I make this image scale to the correct width on all mobile devices (landscape and portrait) and have links to other pages and make the current/active pages icon the yellow color?
What I have tried so far
I first tried to make a CSS Sprite but that go ugly (complex) quickly. Painful working with widths everywhere so the image scales correctly as I had no way of knowing the height in pixels since the width is dynamic. I could use JS to find the width and calculate height on the fly. But this sounds like overkill.
Next I tried to have a single image with a width of 100% then place div overlays on top of the image. But with this solution I could not figure out how to navigate pages using JavaScript click event, or figure out how I would be able to change the image icon on the selected page http://jsbin.com/uraya5/3/ . And detrmining the correct height for the div
Last I tried to make each button a seperate image. These seems like the easist soultion. But jQuery Mobile adds a bunch of extra styles to the button I do not know how to remove. See http://jsbin.com/uraya5/4
So whats the best/easiest way to do this?
How can I remove the style around
links?
Or can I use a single image CSS sliding door method? To reduce HTTP request.
Ok I figured it out
See soultion here http://jsbin.com/uraya5/10/
I had to:
Set width to 19% of each button for
some reason there is spacing between
each button so 20% does not work.
Set ui-bar-a background to black so
it hides the spaces between my
images
Use this JS code to navigate pages $.mobile.changePage($("#about"),
"flip", true, true);
I would still like to use a single image instead of having 5 different images to reduce http calls. So if anyone finds a eligant soultion for this please let me know.

I am converting HTML pages using EvoPdf and would like to add a background image. I am generating documents and would like to add a cover page, I am doing this by prepending the HTML for the cover page then putting a page break directly after.
I am using this demo as a guide http://www.evopdf.com/demo/HTML_to_PDF/PDF_Pages_Background/Add_Elements_in_Background.aspx and have found that I need to remove the page margins for the image to cover the whole page otherwise it sits inside the margins.
If I remove the margins this means the content that flows over pages now starts directly at the top of the page and flows right to the bottom. I can fix this for left and right margins by putting this in the HTML but this does not work for top and bottom margins that flow over pages. (see the generated PDF from the above demo)
Is there a way to set the PDF page background irrespective of the page margins? I have been looking at creating multiple documents with their own configuration and merging the PDF's but I really want to avoid this.
You can set up a header and footer with the heights you wanted for the top and bottom margins, and then choose to not display them on the first page. This should give you the effect you're looking for.
You can find more information about how to do this here: http://www.evopdf.com/demo/HTML_to_PDF/Headers_and_Footers/HTML_in_Header_Footer.aspx
I'm using a JSSOR slider that scrolls content horizontally. My issue is that the slide content is dynamic. An admin has the ability to add and remove images & text from the slider, however not all the divs are the same width. This creates gaps and/or overlapping.
I can create a code to get the width of each slide prior to the initialization of jssor, however I'm wondering if there's a way to apply $SlideWidth to individual slides by index?
Thanks.
I am having an issue where the background image is cutting off to the right when you scroll left to right. This is happening when the app is hosted in the iframe for our business facebook page, not when you go to apps.facebook.com. I have changed the canvas width to fluid and it is not helping.
This is an example of what I am talking about, try scrolling to the right:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/TeleManager-Technologies-Inc/134181063301299?sk=app_241678922556190
This is the link for an actual app:
http://apps.facebook.com/irefill
As you can see in the second link, nothing is being cut off to the side. I tried playing with some css properties such as "overflow" and it still didn't help.
Thank you for your help.
I added a width to your body tag within side of the iframe body - {width:1000px;}
Because you hadn't declared a width on the , it was inheriting the width from the iframe it is nested in, which is 520px, the max-width for facebook page tabs.
Add on a width to your that is larger than the width of the image that is being cut off and you should be good to go.
You only have 520 pixel width to stay inside of on Facebook.
try limiting the
body{width:520px;}
Im using the jscrollpane jquery plugin. My content are images that expand when you mouse over them, and shrink back to normal on mouseleave. What I need if for the images to be able to expand over beyond the scroll bar and remain visible while expanded.
By giving the images a z-index I can get them to expand over the scroll bar handles, but im struggling to get them to expand any further.
If I set a number of elements to having overflow visible I can get it to work, but then I have browser scroll bars at the bottom of the screen.
Can I have the images visible when they expand but no browser scroll bars?
Thanks

Hi,
If I understand correctly you want your images to expand out of the
bounds of the scrollpane "box"? That won't be possible in a simple manner.
A workaround might be to do something like this:
* On mouseover clone the image that is rolled over and attach the
clone to the body with position: absolute.
* Use jQuery to figure out the position of the image you cloned with
respect to the body (a loop with offsetParent will be your friend
here).
* Apply this position to the cloned image so that it is sitting
directly above the original image then expand it.
* Listen for the mouseout event on the cloned image and when this
happens the shrink the cloned image and then remove it from the body.
Hope it helps,
Kelvin :)
I am having the weirdest problem. I'm trying to make a page that fits a resolution of:
width: 640;
height: 960;
for the iphone. But there is a hidden element that I can't access with the Developer toolbar or Firebug that is adding an extra 100pixels to the right of my page.
I've set the correct height and width for the html, body, and main containers but I'm still having the same issue.
You can replicate the problem by going to the following page and resizing your screen just below 740px wide. When you do this you see the horizontal scrollbar popup around 740 pixels. Here's an example page with the issue.
The scrollbar shouldnt popup until the window is resized down to a 640 pixel width because thats what I have all the elements assigned to.
The main overall issue is that when viewed on the iphone4 there is a 100 pixel gap on the right side of the screen that no matter what i do I cant get rid of because some element is making the page 740px width instead of 640.
My boss and I have been working on this for hours and still cant figure out what is causing that extra 100 pixels on the right.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Place overflow: hidden on your HTML CSS attributes. Not sure where that element is coming from, but that will prevent anything from making scroll bars appear.
