I need to make the black box that is currently covering 100% of the viewport cover the entire page instead. You\'ll

<div class="main">
<div class="background">
<section>
<h1>Image fits to viewport</h1>
</section>
</div>
</div>
<h2>Some Text Here to display that image<br>is fixed toviewport</h2>
</body>
</html>
The <div>
needs to be
top: 0;
left: 0;
position: fixed;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
background-color: red;
It will then stay within the viewport's dimensions and "travel" with the scrollbar.
Edit: it will only cover the entire viewport if <body>
is styled to
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
This solution has worked best for me:
#overlay {
position: fixed;
top: 0;
left: 0;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
}
No need to style any other elements except the tag.
try to add this css:
html {
height: 100%;
margin 0;
}
