Hi all!

 

Sorry if this is in the wrong section, but I'm not really sure if this would relate to PHP, CSS, JS, or just basic HTML.

 

Just one basic question: I want to have a sort of background image, and then put smaller images on top of it. Think of it sort of like a game: where I have a map and some sprites on top of them.

 

Sorry for the really stupid question, but I really have no idea how to do this  :-\

this could be done with css and html. Here is how

 

<div id="backgroundImage">

   <div id="smallImage"> 

        <img src="Path to your image" width="size here" height="size here" />

   </div><!--end smallImage div-->

</div<!--end backgroundImage div -->

    

 

so you would need to make an html file and the css file linked like this

 


<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >

<head>
<link href="stylesheet.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<title></title>

</head>

<body>

<div id="backgroundImage">

   <div id="smallImage"> 

        <img src="servlet.jpeg" width="100" height="158" />

   </div><!--end smallImage div-->

</div<!--end backgroundImage div -->


</body>
</html>

 

then make a file named stylesheet.css and drop the css code into that file and put it in the same location as the html file

 

#backgroundImage {  position: relative; width: 400px; height: 400px; background:url(YOUR IMAGE HERE.jpg) repeat; }
#smallImage { position: absolute; top: 30px; left: 60px;} /* CHANGE TOP AND LEFT TO WHAT YOU NEED */
