Joomla 1.7 Slide show question

Hello,

I would like to make a slide show in the header , just that I would like it to act sort of like a background , so the menu would be over the slide show and the slide show should span the whole width of the page , similar to this website : http://www.innsbruck.info/en/home.html

If I use a script for a slide show like Nivo slider , it will appear over the menu , and also if I view it on a smaller resolution than mine it has horizontal scroll.

Can someone please give me a hand with this ?

Thank you

 

try to use Vinaora Nivo Slider - joomla mudule
and need to check your Menu to place Z-index: 9999 to your Css set it up front layer
(sory bad english - if need more help contact me)
Goodluck

 

Other ideas ?

I also made this sketch so you may understand better

 

can do example like that:

<div id="wrap-lamvt">
    <div id="position-for-your-menus"> here is menus
             JDoc::'''''' load module menus
    </div>
    <div id="position-for-your-slide"> here is slide
    
               JDoc::''''''load module slide show
    </div>
</div>

and css like that:
#wrap-lamvt{
    position:relative;
    width:100%;
    
}

#position-for-your-menus{
    position:absolute;
    top:0;
    z-index:100;
}

#position-for-your-slide{
    position:absolute;
    top:0;
    z-index:2;
}

Code (markup):

 

It now looks like this : http://lamario-skiparang.ro/ It needs to span the whole width of the page..

 

Solved the issue with the width , now how can I make to auto ajust to the resolution of the display ? On my PC it works fine but on my laptop I have horizontal scroll...
