Hey guys, meanwhile instead of doing my responsive design I thought I should get a page up for my team right away, now this has been troubling me for the past 30 minutes and I haven't been able to progress. Look at the new, "old" page I put up at www.teambeasty.com, the wowslider I created a .class for so that it could be placed exactly where I want it. Everything is set correctly as far as I know but it's deciding to pull and tug where it shouldn't and leaving my wowslider in the center of the page when I really want it off to the left. Please help guys, i'm trying here :)

The slider is always to the left for me. Actually to far left. It's 1/2 out of site when squeeze my browser.
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

This is a site I built for my work.(RSD)

I set the positions from absolute to fixed just to make sure it stays in place, i'll make the adjustments once I get an idea of what i'm actually going to be adding to the main site.
I need to create a text area for me to write the news just below the wowslider, and beast image.

How far do you think I should adjust the wowslider?

I see what you mean, I just switched from my desktop to the laptop and it's completely cut out.

Isn't wowslider auto responsive ?

I have to resize it again, and make adjustments.

Yeah that's way too much to the left and cuts material out. Isn't it a pain when things work on one device and not on another, sometimes I can be working on the laptop and it looks how I want it, look on something else and it's belly up.

G'kar, have you had a go at the Responsive Layout Maker yet? It's simple to use, but I can't get the menu to work with the rest of my site. RLM creates everything for you, including HTML and provides a powerful look into CSS3 that I have never seen before, or knew would be possible with it.
Once I get around to fixing the menu, i'll provide you with a better looking, more responsive website :)

Right now i'm just throwing something in the air until I get this RLM working.

it's off to the left to me, right under your menu which is left aligned also. Since you have the slider tied to the menu div (which you want it to be in this case) it will align according to the location of the menu, not the page just so you know. Since you have the menu left aligned, the slider will move to the 0 location of the menu block, which it looks like it's doing to me. Did you fix it already maybe? Or if not, what browser are you viewing it in?

No Mathew it won't let me use RLM not even for a trial. It says not available at this time???? It's a download for goodness sake of course it's available, even a try would be nice.

This thread is becoming increasingly bewildering:
Is it about (1) Button Builder, (2) Menu Builder, (3) HTML Editor, or (4) RLM?

The fixed positioning and sizing in this CSS of yours will override any hope the WOW slider may have ever had of being 'responsive':
.wowleft
{
position: fixed;
top: 0px;
left: -500px;
width: 640px;
height: 480px;
z-index: 0;
}

The negative left margin will also force the slider off the visible viewport to the left...

It seems to be about html and css. But all those programmes are involved. And since the three new ones each come with its own css, it may be a bit hard to find a path through that.

UncleMap has revealed in another thread that his name is Mathew.
And both you and Jo Ann are right about the faults in the css...
Ha en riktig god dag!
