I'm trying to make a 50% opacity <div> appear all over the site, I gave it position absolute and width, height of 100%. but its still appears only parts of the site, if you scroll down, it doesn't cover the rest of the site.
<div style="width:100%; height:100%; margin:0; top:0; left:0; background:#000; position: absolute;">
loading..
</div>
What can I do?

Reset to default 13Use position: fixed; instead of position: absolute;:
<div style="width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0em;
left: 0em; top: 0em; background: black;
position: fixed;">Loading ...</div>
This works too:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
<head>
<title>Test</title>
<style type="text/css">
#big {
position: absolute;
left: 0;
right: 0;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
background: #000;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="big"></id>
</body>
</html>
Setting top and bottom should do the trick (it also works with position: fixed).
Use z-index, example:
<style scoped="scoped" type="text/css">
.imgWrap {
position: relative;
width: 25%x;
}
.imgDescription {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
bottom: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
color: #fff;
visibility: hidden;
opacity: 0;
height: 400px;
width: 400px;
padding: 5px 5px 5px 5px;
z-index: 100;
}
.imgWrap:hover .imgDescription {
visibility: visible;
opacity: 1;
}
</style>
<table style="width: 100%;">
<tbody>
<tr>
<td style="width: 100%;">
<div class="imgWrap">
<p style="text-align: left;"><strong>Text</strong></p>
<p> </p>
<div class="imgDescription">
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li>Description...</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
