How do I place my form on top of an image in css / html?
Good developers! I would like to ask how can I render my form on top of my image? The problem is my form appears at the bottom. Here is an image of my screenshot.
Here are my codes:
Html
<body>
<div class="container" align="center">
<div id="image">
<img src="assets/img/imac.png" style="width:640px; height:678">
</div>
<div id="loginForm">
<div class="panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h3 class="panel-title">Please sign in</h3>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<form accept-charset="UTF-8" role="form">
<fieldset>
<div class="form-group">
<input class="form-control" placeholder="E-mail" name="email" type="text">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input class="form-control" placeholder="Password" name="password" type="password" value="">
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input name="remember" type="checkbox" value="Remember Me"> Remember Me
</label>
</div>
<input class="btn btn-lg btn-success btn-block" type="submit" value="Login">
</fieldset>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
CSS
body {
background-color: #2ecc71;
}
.container {
width: 1000px;
height: 700px;
margin-top: 100px;
}
#loginForm{
width: 500px;
height: 400px;
}

Make a #image
be position:absolute
and fill .container
(which is done position:relative
) with it.
body {
background-color: #2ecc71;
}
.container {
width: 1000px;
height: 700px;
margin-top: 100px;
position:relative;
}
#loginForm {
width: 500px;
height: 400px;
position:relative;
z-index:10;
}
#image{
top:0;
left:0;
right:0;
bottom:0;
position:absolute;
}
<div class="container" align="center">
<div id="image">
<img src="http://dummyimage.com/600x678/cccccc/ffffff.jpg&text=monitor+image" style="width:640px; height:678">
</div>
<div id="loginForm">
<div class="panel panel-default">
<div class="panel-heading">
<h3 class="panel-title">Please sign in</h3>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
<form accept-charset="UTF-8" role="form">
<fieldset>
<div class="form-group">
<input class="form-control" placeholder="E-mail" name="email" type="text">
</div>
<div class="form-group">
<input class="form-control" placeholder="Password" name="password" type="password" value="">
</div>
<div class="checkbox">
<label>
<input name="remember" type="checkbox" value="Remember Me">Remember Me
</label>
</div>
<input class="btn btn-lg btn-success btn-block" type="submit" value="Login">
</fieldset>
</form>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>

Create an image sized div and make the image the background image for the div.
Then place a container div inside that div for the form itself. Then you can use CSS to position the div form using margins.
<div id="image-container">
<div id="form-container">
// your form
</div>
</div>
#image-container {
width: 500px;
height: 500px;
background: url(/* your image */);
}
#form-container {
width:350px;
margin: 30px auto 0 auto;
}
Obviously, you need to replace the dimensions with the images of your actual image and the field values so that the contents of your form fit the computer screen in your image.
This should work, I am coding this on my phone, so sorry if I miss something trivial!

I used the last example and simplified it. Just adjust the size of the image and use padding to position the shape.
<div style="width:529px; height:220px; background-image:url('image.jpg')" align="center">
<div style="width:529px; padding: 165 0 0 0" align="center">
...form ...
<div>
<div>
