Admittedly I have not used absolute positioning that much.
Not quite sure what I am doing wrong here. Check the link below. The logo is in maroon. What am I doing wrong with my css?
Thanks!
Wow, that was confusing. The problem is that your logo is saved at an enormous resolution.
1,500px × 860px .png
this image should be cropped as tight as you can get on it. After you do that, re-upload the image. Remove your absolutely positioning and the logo may fall pretty close to where you want it. If you want to move it use position:relative; in this case.
holy crap how did i do that lol… amateur mistake
Okay I changes it to relative and it bumped everything around a bit… What did I do wrong here?
EDIT: almost have it in the right position… but now it has bumped down the image of the beer beneath it?
You’re almost there!!!
Give #headerimg position:relative;
Then give img.logo position:absolute;
absolutely positioned elements are positioned in relation to the browser window.
UNLESS… they are contained inside a relatively positioned element. Then they are absolutely positioned in relation to the container that is relatively positioned.
<div style=“position:relative”>
<img src=“###” style=“position:absolute;top:3px;left:400px;” />
</div>
woot!
got it… thanks rusty!
So the parent element for an absolute element has to be position:relative?
oops sorry posted that before you posted that last one… thanks again rusty!
