I am creating a web page, where I have an image that I want

  • 0

I am creating a web page, where I have an image that I want to place in the center. On the top of that image I want to have input boxes, labels, and a submit button.

I am trying to use this CSS

img.center
{
    z-index:-1;
}

but this does not work. When I change the code to

img.center
{
    position:absolute;
    left:0px;
    top:0px;
    z-index:-1;
}

it makes the image go behind. But then as I used left:0px and top:0px … it puts the image at location 0,0. But I want the image to stay in the center.

To keep the image in the center, I have added this: <div align="center">.

Is there any way, I can keep the image in the center and make it go behind the boxes, labes, and buttons too?

My HTML page looks like this (I tried to have a background image for my div tag, but no image is appearing on top of it):

<html>
<head>
<title>Question of the Week</title>
<style type="text/css">
    body
    {
        background-image:url('images/background.jpg');
        background-repeat:repeat-x;
    }

    .container
    {
    background-image:url('images/center.jpg');
    background-repeat:no-repeat;
    }
    td.cntr {padding-top:50px;}
</style>
</head>
<body topmargin="0" leftmargin="0" rightmargin="0" bottommargin="0" marginwidth="0" marginheight="0">

    <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
        <tr>
            <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
                <tr>
                    <td><div align="left"><img src="images/logo.jpg"></div></td>
                    <td></td>
                    <td><div align="right"><img src="images/right_logo.jpg"></div></td></tr>
            </table>
        </tr>
        <tr>
            <table width="100%" border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
                <tr>
                    <td class="cntr">
                        <div id="container">
                            <input name="box" type="textbox" />
                            <input name="box" type="textbox" />
                            <input name="submit" type="submit" />
                        </div>
                    </td>
                </tr>
            </table>
        </tr>
    </table>

    Well, put your image in the background of your website/container and put whatever you want on top of that.

    Your container defined in HTML:

    <div id="container">
   <input name="box" type="textbox" />
   <input name="box" type="textbox" />
   <input name="submit" type="submit" />
</div>

    Your CSS would look like this:

    #container {
    background-image:url(yourimage.jpg);
    background-position:center;
    width:700px;
    height:400px;
}

    For this to work though, you must have height and width specified to certain values (i.e. no percentages). I could help you more specifically if you wanted, but I’d need more info.
