Add URL link in CSS Background Image?

Question

I have a CSS entry that looks like this:

.header {
    background-image: url(\"./images/embouchure.jpg\");
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    height:160px         


        

Answer 1

Try wrapping the spans in an anchor tag and apply the background image to that.

HTML:

<div class="header">
    <a href="/">
        <span class="header-title">My gray sea design</span><br />
        <span class="header-title-two">A beautiful design</span>
    </a>
</div>

CSS:

.header {
    border-bottom:1px solid #eaeaea;
}

.header a {
    display: block;
    background-image: url("./images/embouchure.jpg");
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
    height:160px;
    padding-left:280px;
    padding-top:50px;
    width:470px;
    color: #eaeaea;
}

Answer 2

Using only CSS it is not possible at all to add links :) It is not possible to link a background-image, nor a part of it, using HTML/CSS. However, it can be staged using this method:

<div class="wrapWithBackgroundImage">
    <a href="#" class="invisibleLink"></a>
</div>

.wrapWithBackgroundImage {
    background-image: url(...);
}
.invisibleLink {
    display: block;
    left: 55px; top: 55px;
    position: absolute;
    height: 55px width: 55px;
}

You can not add links from CSS, you will have to do so from the HTML code explicitly. For example, something like this:

<a href="whatever.html"><li id="header"></li></a>
