  sprites css navigation tutorial design

  • with a bit of math and a lot of CSS, we’re going to take the basic concept and apply it to the world of web design.
  • store all buttons/navigation items/whatever we wish in a single master image file
  • Those familiar with Petr Stanicek’s (Pixy) Fast Rollovers may already see where we’re going with this
  • Likewise, if the left edge of each link is effectively 0, we’ll need to offset the  background image horizontally by the width of all <li>s prior to the one we’re working with.
  • a bit of spacing between each  <li>
  • Irregular shapes
  • adding a second after state

  • The <li>s are absolutely positioned, so why aren’t they at the top of the browser  window? A quirky but useful property of positioned elements is that all descendent elements contained within them base their absolute position not off the corners of the browser window, but off the corners of the nearest positioned ancestor element.The upshot of this is that since we applied  position: relative; to #skyline, we’re able to absolutely position the  <li>s from the top left corner of #skyline itself.

  The idea is you combine all the images into one big one, and then split it up using the background: property in css to clip it up after it loads. Reduces http requests.
