    Hey guys!

    Take a look at the screenshot attached.
    What is the correct way to arrange these elements?
    So far my style sheet looks like a huge mess ://
    I am a bit lost with the positions. Especially how to position div ABOVE footer -.-

    Use z-index to arrange what goes on top of what. Relative positioning works great with z-index. You can use positive or negative numbers. To arrange things, you must know that it's not easy to understand how to keep the footer at the bottom, but this might help: http://www.cssreset.com/demos/layouts/how-to-keep-footer-at-bottom-of-page-with-css. 


    Also, when you come to assign the width of each div, use percentages. ie:

    Code:

    #background{

    position: relative;

    width: 70%;


    z-index: -999;


    }



    Hope this helps

    Oh great! z-index was exactly what I'm looking for.
    The only issue now would be with DIV element centering.
    If position added to it, it is placed in the bottom, but no longer centered.
    Without position it is centered, but not in the bottom -.-
    And how does it look in general? Correct enough?

    EDIT: lol, solved the centering with
    Code:
    right: 0;
    left: 0;
    position: fixed;
    Very Happy so all good. JUst let me know if the code looks tidy enough, what could be improved? Smile

    EDIT2: another thing considering the style. In the forum our language has UNICODE characters. Yet when I add any it in the HTML page, unicode characters are not displayed :/ any idea why?
    Code:
    <html>
    <head>
    <style>
    body {
      background-color: red;
    }
    .footer {
      position: absolute;
      right: 0;
      bottom: 0;
      left: 0;
      padding: 10px;
      background-color: #eeede5;
      text-align: center;
      z-index: -1;
    }
     
    .elem1 {
      background-color: green;
      width: 484px;
      height: 200px;
      margin-left: auto;
      margin-right: auto;
      bottom: 0;
    }
    </style>
    </head>
    <body>
    <div class="elem1">
       TEXT
    </div>
    <div class="footer">
      <a href="https://www.forumlt.com" target="_blank">forumlt.com</a>
    </div>
    </body>

    Here's a tidier version of that code if you would like it.
    Code:
    <html>

    <head>
      <style>
        body {
          background-color: red;
        }
        .footer {
          position: absolute;
          right: 0;
          bottom: 0;
          left: 0;
          padding: 10px;
          background-color: #eeede5;
          text-align: center;
          z-index: -1;
        }
       
        .elem1 {
          background-color: green;
          width: 484px;
          height: 200px;
          margin-left: auto;
          margin-right: auto;
          bottom: 0;
        }
      </style>
    </head>

    <body>
      <div class="elem1">
        TEXT
      </div>
      <div class="footer">
        <a href="https://www.forumlt.com" target="_blank">forumlt.com</a>
      </div>
    </body>

    I meant more the coding, not spacing, but thanks Wink

    Couple more alignment things I am working on.
    Header contains an image. How to properly center in vertically?
    Style:
    Code:
    .header {
      background-image: url("https://i.solidfiles.com/Dk6R4NKYPzZp8.png");
      background-size: cover;
      background-attachment: fixed;
      background-position: top;
      width: 100%;
      height: 536px;
      top: 0;
      left: 0;
      position: fixed;
     
    }

    Place in code:
    Code:
    <body>
    <div class="header">
      <center><img src="URL" /></center>
    </div>
    ....

    Hi,

    Using the center tag to center stuff is deprecated since html 4.0 or maybe earlier. You should use css to center an element:
    Code:
    .header{
    text-align:center;
    }

    Note that this centers everything in the .header element.

    Hello Wolfuryo,

    Thank you for the info. Did not know that.
    Unfortunately, your option will not work here. I mean. I need in the center/middle of the header element. With text-align it only centers horizontally. Vertical alignment is not affected. I have tried vertical alignment tag as well :/
    Disregard that. I think it will be easier just placing the div in another location.

    Current issues with said style - header background is an PNG image. All good on PC. Yet on mobile device it shoes up incorrectly transparent. any ideas what is causing this? Or it's just a mobile phone issue?

    I'm not sure about that, but I think that it is a mobile related issue. What browser are you using? Also, the OS of the phone is Android or IOS?

    I think this might be related to browser height...

    I currently tried on apple iphone and apple computer, windows computer.
    Each with google chrome, safari browser...

    Okey. Found the last thing causing me a headache.

    For a guest - everything is working great.
    Now a logged in user. Basically, if a logged in user goes to HTML login page he can see it. So I need him redirected to the /forum/ Here is what I tried:
    Code:
    if(document.URL.indexOf("http://URL/") >= 0){
         if(_userdata.session_logged_in){
              window.location = "http://URL/forum";
            } else {
              /*DO NOTHING*/
            }
      } else {
        /*DO NOTHING*/
      }

    As the HTML login is the main page, its address is just help.forumotion.com/
    The if redirects to the forum page: help.forumotion.com/forum
    But then if runs again, as there is URL. So loop happens.
    Any ideas on this?

    If the user is logged in and goes to the login page you want him/her to be redirected to the first page, right? If so, this JS should do it:
    Code:

    if(window.location.pathname="/" && _userdata.session_logged_in){
    window.location="/forum";
    };

    About your code:If you don't want to do something if the condition is false, there is no need for else. Also, it's better to merge conditions into a single If when possible. Both the first page and the /forum page contained the string "/" in them so the code could not work properly.

    Your code created the loop as well ://
    I was thinking, maybe it is better to check if specific phrasing or element is present && user loged in?

    You have to put the code in the login page, surrounded by
    Code:
    <script>
    tags

    I tested the code on my forum and it seemed to work. Post the login page's coding here, there might be an error in another javascript that prevents this one from running.

            });
    This should do it.

    This script is placed in JS page.
    If I place this :
    Code:
    if(window.location.pathname="/" && _userdata.session_logged_in){
    window.location="/forum";
    };
    The loop will happen again.

    I accidentally posted this in the toolbar thread lol. I received the PM. Replace the script with this one:
    Code:
    $(function(){
    $.get("/forum", function(data){
    if(data.match(/Anonymous/)!="Anonymous") window.location="/forum";
    });

    In your code, after
    Code:
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
    , put this one:
    Code:
    <script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.2.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

    One last question about this (hopefully XD) I know, I am a pain :DD

    Is there a way to do the script before the page fully loads?
    Now it seams that a page loads and then the JS is executed.

    Yes, it's possible. Delete the old code, than place this one at the beginning of the script tag(without $(function() or $(document).ready(function(){ before it):
    Code:
    var gt = function() {
    this.get = function(aUrl, aCallback) {
    var anHttpRequest = new XMLHttpRequest();
    anHttpRequest.onreadystatechange = function() {
    if (anHttpRequest.readyState == 4 && anHttpRequest.status == 200)
    aCallback(anHttpRequest.responseText);
    }
    anHttpRequest.open( "GET", aUrl, true );           
    anHttpRequest.send( null );
    }
    }
    var getd=new gt();
    getd.get("/forum", function(data){
    if(data.match(/Anonymous/)!="Anonymous") window.location="/forum";
    })

    Well, that code is jquery, while the last one is vanilla javascript(plain javascript). There should not be any major performance difference between them.

    Okeeeeey, The last thing. This code is not working.
    After clicking yes, user is not logged out:
    Code:
    /*Logout redirection*/
      $(function() { /*Wait for the page to become fully loaded*/
        if (/logout/.test(window.location.search)) { /*If the string logout is present in the page link*/
            var sending = 0; /*No request sent to the server*/
            $("[name='confirm']").click(function(e) { /*When user clicks on yes*/
                if (sending) return; /*If request has already been sent, don't do anything*/
                sending = 1; /*Update the variable so that we know the request has already been sent*/
                e.preventDefault(); /*Prevent the default action(sending the user to the page saying successfull logout*/
                var tid = $("[name='tid'").val(),
                    key = $("[name='key']").val();
                $.post("/login?logout=1&tid=" + tid + "&key=" + key, function(data) {
                    window.location = "http://hogas.huhohi.com/";
                });
            });
        };
      });
