Making BXslider full screen (filling entire browser window)


I am currently trying to implement THIS very simple content slider. I have reached a point where it is working, however using the CSS code below I need to make the slider full screen, filling the entire browser window. However I can not see where to put the code for this can someody help me? I feel like a bit of a dummy for asking such a simple question!

My current code is below.

My HTML code

<body>

<div class="slider">
<ul class="bxslider">
<li><img src="images/slide1.png" /></li>
<li><img src="images/slide2.png" /></li>
<li><img src="images/slide3.png" /></li>
</ul></div>

</body>

My CSS code

.bx-wrapper {
position: relative;
left: 0px;
top: 0px;
padding: 0;
*zoom: 1;
}

.bx-wrapper img {
max-width: 100%;
height: 100%;
display: block;

Solution

  • Here you are a full screen bxSlider + responsive. http://jsfiddle.net/0nj2ry4n/1/

    First remove the images and make them background of the li elements.

    <ul class="bxslider">
      <li style="background-image: url('http://bxslider.com/images/home_slides/hillside.jpg');"></li>
      <li style="background-image: url('http://bxslider.com/images/home_slides/houses.jpg');"></li>
      <li style="background-image: url('http://bxslider.com/images/home_slides/hillside.jpg');"></li>
      <li style="background-image: url('http://bxslider.com/images/home_slides/houses.jpg');"></li>
    </ul>
    

    Then add this css

    *{
        margin: 0px;
        padding: 0px;
    }
    body, html{
        height: 100%;
    }
    .bx-viewport, .bx-wrapper{
        position:relative;
        width:100%;
        height:100% !important;
        top:0;
        left:0;
    }
    .bxslider, .bxslider li{
        height: 100% !important;;
    }
    .bxslider li{
        background-repeat: no-repeat;
        background-position: top center;
        background-size: cover;
    }
    .bx-wrapper .bx-viewport{
        border: none !important;
    }
    

    And call bxSlider

    $(document).ready(function(){
        $('.bxslider').bxSlider({
            pager: false
        });
    });
