Right so I need some help from CSS experts who can tell me what I'm looking at because I'm very new at this and I've been straying through the CSS forest without a map.
I have a website with a number of modals. Each modal has a carousel of images.
The images have some unwanted empty space around them. This empty space is part of the class="carousel-inner" div. I noticed the size of that div was 720 by 480 pixels and my images were smaller. So the first thing I did was resize the images in photoshop. That removed the empty space on the sides, but not below.
Then I tried controlling the size of the carousel-inner div by adding some CSS of my own. That largely went nowhere, and really messed up the responsiveness of the whole modal.
So I assume there is something in the CSS code relating to the carousel that is doing this. Unfortunately, there's so much of it that I really don't know what to change. I've fiddled around with some of it, but that either had no effect, or it messed stuff up.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. I've been googling and fiddling with this stuff for hours..!
So here's the code:
.carousel {
position: relative;
}
.carousel-inner {
position: relative;
max-width: 100%;
overflow: hidden;
}
.carousel-inner>.item {
position: relative;
display: none;
-webkit-transition: .6s ease-in-out left;
-o-transition: .6s ease-in-out left;
transition: .6s ease-in-out left;
}
.carousel-inner>.item>img,
.carousel-inner>.item>a>img {
line-height: 1;
}
@media all and (transform-3d),
(-webkit-transform-3d) {
.carousel-inner>.item {
-webkit-transition: -webkit-transform .6s ease-in-out;
-o-transition: -o-transform .6s ease-in-out;
transition: transform .6s ease-in-out;
-webkit-backface-visibility: hidden;
backface-visibility: hidden;
-webkit-perspective: 1000px;

}
.carousel-inner>.item.next,

}
