I can’t figure out how to make the background image in my html and css to fill under the navbar and footer. When I scroll the space of the navbar is just a white space, I want it to scroll without space at the top and bottom. Thanks!
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
}
body, html {
margin: 0 auto;
padding: 0;
}
.background-container {
background-image: url("http://placekitten.com/g/500/500");
background-size: cover;
background-position: center;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
opacity: 0.5;
z-index: -1;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
.logo-container {
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
height: 30%; /* Adjust the height as needed */
}
.logo-container img{
max-width: auto;
max-height: 600px;
text-align: center;
}
@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
/* Adjust background image for mobile devices */
.background-container {
background-position: center;
height: auto;
}
}
.footer {
padding: 25px 0;
background-color: #f2f2f2;
bottom: 0;
width: 100%;
}
.navbar {
margin-bottom: 0;
border-radius: 0;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
width: 100%;
overflow: auto;
}
@media (max-width: 768px) {
.logo-container {
margin-top: 50px;
}
.footer {
position: relative;
}
.navbar {
position: relative;
}

I’ve tried to change the code on both css and html but nothing seems to be changing the result.

I’m not sure why you have created a new element that you are putting the BG image on instead of just putting it on the
<body>
tag, but your problem is because at small screen sizes you are settingheight:auto
on the.background-container
element.You have created an element, made it fixed position and then made it 100% tall, 100% wide. When the screen size is small and you set
height:auto
now that element has a height of0px
since there’s nothing inside that element.Also you are including Bootstrap 4 CSS and Bootstrap 3 JS – this makes no sense at all. Pick one of the other, you can’t mix versions like this!
I suggested in a comment on your question to apply the background image to
body
, but I can’t think of how you would apply opacity in that manner. So, just move<div class="background-container"></div>
to the top of the page.
