On this page (http://nate.fm/testing/) you can see that the text link's bottom border gets pushed down. Can anyone tell me where I can change that in the CSS?
You can set the <a> tag to display: inline-block; then reduce the line-height.
Something like this maybe:
.post-content a {
line-height: 15px;
display: inline-block;
}
.post-content a {
/* border-bottom: 3px solid #eee; */
text-decoration: underline;
}
They are using border-bottom along with line-height, the line-height property causes the effect of "pushing" down the border you are mentioning
.post-content a {
border-bottom: 3px solid #eee;
line-height: 160%;
}

So I want to try to do this in html and css but I can't seem to find anything. I only way I can think is by importing the text as an image but that will look bad. P.S Light blue line is for centering as I am designing the site in Photoshop first

.test {
border-top-style: solid;
border-bottom-style: solid;
border-bottom-width: 1px;
}
A simple solution is using text-decoration: underline overline;.
p {
text-decoration: overline underline;
}

You can use border-top in css to create a line above text.
.mytextbox {
border-top: 1px solid #ff0000;
}
border-top property
Example of use
Try using borders to achieve the look you are wanting:
a.my-class {
display: inline-block;
padding: 5px 15px;
border-top: 2px solid #000;
border-bottom: 2px solid #000;
line-height: 1em;
text-decoration: none;
}
Well, you'd want to have the text element within a div, set the bg color property of the div to the color you're going for, and then set margins for the text element to push off the text by ~10px or so (looks like that's about where it's at in your mock up). From there you can set a border to only top, and bottom and style accordingly.
You can put the text inside a block level element and apply a top and bottom border. Advantage of this method against the text-decoration: underline overline; is, that you can simply define the space between text and lines with padding as you need it.
To make the width as long as the text is, just use display: inline-block;.
body {
background: #5cc8f6;
}
div {
display: inline-block;
padding: .5em;
border-top: 1px solid white;
border-bottom: 1px solid white;
color: white;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-family: Verdana;
font-size: 2em;
}

I have the following code. It's a simplified code of a responsive design: In a certain screen size I want to show only the icon (blue - via ::before) but not the text.
When I try to hide the mail address via font-size: 0 (there will be an icon in the ::before) - the header grows in height.
Sure I could use max-height - but is there a cleaner solution?
Fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/xs2wre4r/
<div class="header">
<span class="store-contact-email">
info#example.com
</span>
</div>
<div class="header">
<span class="store-contact-email">
<a class="hide" href="mailto:info#example.com">info#example.com</a>
</span>
</div>
Left .header frame is computed = 25px
Right .header frame is computed = 30px
.header {
float: left;
}
.header .store-contact-email a:before {
line-height: 18px;
vertical-align: -36%;
padding-right: 5px;
background-color: blue;
width: 30px;
display: inline-block;
}
.header .store-contact-email a:before {
content: "x";
}
.store-contact-email {
border: 1px solid red;
}
.store-contact-email a {
font-size: 18px;
}
.store-contact-email a.hide {
font-size: 0px;
}
The problem is with the font sizes of the ::before blocks.
Since the second one has a font size of 0 and a line height of 18, it will be vertically positioned around the baseline, with 9px above and 9px below. The first one (with the normal font size) will be positioned normally (depending on the exact font), with, say, 14px above and 4px below.
(You also have vertical-align on the ::before, but that doesn't change the situation; it moves both ::before blocks 6.48 pixels down.)
So since the second one is located 5px lower than the first one, the bottom of the bounding box will be pushed down by 5px.
To illustrate,
span {
font-size: 18px;
border: 1px solid red;
background: rgba(255, 255, 0, .4);
}
span::before {
line-height: 18px;
vertical-align: -36%;
border: 1px solid blue;
background: rgba(0, 255, 255, .4);
width: 30px;
display: inline-block;
content: "x";
}
span.hide {
font-size: 0;
}
<span>visible</span>
<span class="hide">invisible</span>
Solution: don't use the font-size:0 trick.
You can set font-size of ::before, as it's inheriting parent font-size.
.header .store-contact-email a:before {
content: "x";
font-size: 18px;
}
Or you can use display or visibility, just avoid :before to inherit that property.
wrap the text with span and hide the span
<div class="header">
<span class="store-contact-email">
<a class="hide" href="mailto:info#example.com"><span>info#example.com</span></a>
</span>
</div>
.store-contact-email a.hide span {
display:none;
}
Better to:-
(1) nest the text info#example.com inside another span, which will display:none under a breakpoint; or
(2) put the icon on .store-contact-email:before instead of .store-contact-email a:before.
The reason is that browsers often enforce a minimum font size for accessibility purposes.
I can't figure out what is causing the uneven spacing that you see in the image http://i.imgur.com/AZoXzYf.png (can't embed images yet ... sorry)
which comes from http://playclassicsnake.com/Scores. My relevant CSS is
.page-btn { background: #19FF19; color: #FFF; border: 0; border: 3px solid transparent; }
.page-btn.cur-page { border-color: #FFF; cursor: pointer; }
.page-btn + .page-btn { margin-left: 5px; }
and I've inspected the elements to make sure there's nothing fishy. What's the deal?
You have a new line character in your HTML just after your first button:
<button class="page-btn cur-page">1</button>
<button class="page-btn">2</button><button class="page-btn">3</button>
Make it all in 1 line and it will start to work without any extra spaces:
<button class="page-btn cur-page">1</button><button class="page-btn">2</button><button class="page-btn">3</button>
Your CSS is perfectly fine and doesn't need to be altered as mentioned by others..
Hi now try to this css
#page-btns-holder {
width: 80%;
margin-top: 12px;
font-size: 0;
}
div#page-btns-holder * {
font-size: 14px;
}
.page-btn {
background: #19FF19;
color: #FFF;
border: 0;
border: 3px solid transparent;
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: top;
font-size: 14px;
}
Define your btn display inline-block and remove space to inline-block element define your patent font-size:0; and child define font-size:14px; as like this i give you example
Remove Whitespace Between Inline-Block Elements
Try to make the font-size of the parent content 0, also try setting letter-spacing to 0.
Essentially i have a pricing table with the class of .priceblock, and i have a border-bottom on my <li> tags, i simply want it to change color when i hover on the priceblock. The code to me seems correct but nothing changes.
Heres the initial li tag:
ul.pricingtable .priceblock .contents li {
font-family: 'OpenSans';
font-size: 13px;
width: 81.904762%;
height: 35px;
margin:0 auto;
padding: 10px 0;
border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(221,221,221,1);
}
And here hover state css code, this hover class works for he coloring of texts, but i can't change the border color.
.priceblock:hover .contents li {
border-color: rgba(255,117,109,1);
}
Any ideas?
I think you might need to change the hover state from.
.priceblock:hover .contents li {
border-color: rgba(255,117,109,1);
}
To:
.contents li:hover {
border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(255,117,109,1);
}
HTML may be able to read it better.
The css attributes need to be equals.
for example:
If in the first style block you write "ul.pricingtable" then you need to do that in the second block two.
And in the content of block, they need to be same.
for example:
border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(221,221,221,1);
and
border-bottom: 1px solid rgba(255,117,109,1);
You cann'ot use once with "border-bottom" and then with "border-color" only...
Problem
I am working on a project to theme a website, but I am not allowed to change the HTML or JavaScript. I can only update the CSS stylesheet and add/update images.
Requrements
I need to style a h3 tag to have an
underline/border after the content.
This h3 will be used multiple times
on the page, so the conent length can
vary
The solution needs to be
cross-browser (IE 6/7/8, FF 3, &
Safari)
Sample Code
<div class="a">
<div class="b"><!-- etc --></div>
<div class="c">
<h3>Sample Text To Have Line Afterwards</h3>
<ul><!-- etc --></ul>
<p class="d"><!-- etc --></p>
</div>
</div>
Sample Output
Sample Text to Have Line Afterwards ______________________________________
Another Example __________________________________________________________
And Yet Another Example __________________________________________________
Notes
I think #sample:after { content: "__________"; } option wouldn't work since that would only be the correct length for one of the tags
I tried a background-image, but if it gave me problems if I gave it one with a large width
Using text-indent didn't see to give me the effect I was looking for
I tried a combination of border-bottom and text-decoration: none, but that didn't seem to work either
Any ideas would be much appreciated!
This will work if class 'c' is always the parent of the h3...
.c {
position: relative;
margin-top: 25px;
border-top: 1px solid #000;
padding: 0px;
}
h3 {
font-size:20px;
margin-top: 0px;
position: absolute;
top: -18px;
background: #fff;
}
It lets the container have the border, then uses absolute positioning to move the h3 over it, and the background color lets it blot out the portion of c's border that it's covering.
try attaching a background image to class c of a repeating underline, then add a background color to the h3 to match the background of the container. I believe that you would have to float the h3 left in order to get the width to collapse. does that make sense?
.c {
background: #ffffff url(underline.gif) left 20px repeat-x;
}
.c h3 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0 0 2px 0;
float: left;
font-size: 20px;
background: #ffffff;
}
.c h3 { display: inline; background-color: white; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 1em; }
.c ul { margin-top: -1px; border-top: 1px solid; padding-top: 1em; /* simulate margin with padding */ }
http://besh.dwich.cz/tmp/h3.html
H3 {
border: 1px solid red;
border-width: 0 0 1px 0;
text-indent: -60px;
}
You need to know the width of the text, but works pretty well.
The only solution I've imagined so far is to make a PNG or GIF image, with 1px height and a very large width (depends on your project, could be like 1x2000px), and do something like this:
h3#main-title { background: url(line.png) no-repeat bottom XYZem; }
where the XYZ you'd set manually, for each title, in 'em' units. But I can't figure out a 100% dynamic solution for this one, without using JS or adding extra markup.
this worked for me
div.c
{
background-image:url(line.gif);background-repeat:repeat-x;width:100%;height:20px;
}
div.c h3
{
height:20px;background-color:white;display:inline;
}
you make the div the width of your content
then you set the background of the h3 to the background of your page. this will then overlap the background imageof the full div. You might want to play with background positioning depending on your image
Can you pad content in the UL tags? If so, this might work:
h3 { display: inline; margin: 0; padding: 0 10px 0 0; float: left;}
ul { display: inline; border-bottom: 1px solid black; }
check source code of: http://nonlinear.cc/lab/friends/elijahmanor.html
then again i have NO IDEA how to control the end of the line.
Assuming that you're working with dynamic content, the best I could suggest is to accept graceful degradation and use a mix of great_llama and Bohdan Ganicky
Imagine:
A long title that will wrap to two lines___________________
and leave you like this in great_llama's solution
and nothing appearing at all with Bohdan Ganicky's solution if ul isn't immediate preceded by ul.
Solution:
.c h3 { display: inline; background-color: white; margin: 0; padding: 0; line-height: 1em; }
.c + * { margin-top: -1px; border-top: 1px solid; padding-top: 1em; /* simulate margin with padding */ }
We care about IE6, but accept that this is an aesthetic touch and IE6 users will not suffer. If you can't get the designer to accept this AND you can't alter the HTML, then do something else (before you find another job ;))
Here's a better answer:
.c {
background: url('line.png') repeat-x 0 20px;
}
H3 {
background-color: white;
display: inline;
position: relative;
top: 1px;
}
Use a small, 1px height, couple px wide image as your underline and occlude it with a background color on your H3.
h3:after {
content: '___________';
}
