Hello I am trying to make an invisible button (still functional and clickable), because my buttons styles are embedded in the background and I don't want to slice them, and do it all from beginning.
So I just want to make a button, put it on the part of the background where the button should be and make it invisible so the background button image can be seen and clicked.
Any suggestions? Thank you very much!
you must use the following properties for a button element to make it transparent.
Transparent Button With No Text
button {
background: transparent;
border: none !important;
font-size:0;
}
Transparent Button With Visible Text
button {
background: transparent;
border: none !important;
}
and use absolute position to position the element.
For Example
you have the button element under a div. Use position : relative on div and position: absolute on the button to position it within the div.
here is a working JSFiddle
here is an updated JSFiddle that displays only text from the button.
You can use CSS to hide the button.
button {
visibility: hidden;
}
If your <button> is just a clickable area on the image, why bother make it a button? You can use <map> element instead.
button {
background:transparent;
border:none;
outline:none;
display:block;
height:200px;
width:200px;
cursor:pointer;
}
Give the height and width with respect to the image in the background.This removes the borders and color of a button.You might also need to position it absolute so you can correctly place it where you need.I cant help you further without posting you code
To make it truly invisible you have to set outline:none; otherwise there would be a blue outline in some browsers and you have to set display:block if you need to click it and set dimensions to it
HTML
<input type="button">
CSS
input[type=button]{
background:transparent;
border:0;
}
Use CSS background:transparent; to your button/div.

I am trying to include an image and some text inside a button element. My code is as follows:
<button class="testButton1"><img src="Car Blue.png" alt="">Car</button>
The CSS is:
.testButton1
{
font-size:100%;
height:10%;
width: 25%
}
.testButton1 img
{
height:80%;
vertical-align:middle;
}
What I would like to do is to position the image to the left edge of the button, and position the text either in the center or to the right. Using   works, but is perhaps a bit crude. I have tried to surround the image and text with spans or divs and then positioning those, but that seems to mess things up.
What appears to be happening is that anything inside the button tag (unless formatted) is positioned as one unit in the center of a wider button (not noticeable if button width is left to auto adjust as both items are side-by-side.
Any help, as always, is appreciated. Thank you.
Background Image Approach
You can use a background image and have full control over the image positioning.
Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/EFsU8/
BUTTON {
padding: 8px 8px 8px 32px;
font-family: Arial, Verdana;
background: #f0f0f0 url([url or base 64 data]);
background-position: 8px 8px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
A slightly "prettier" example: http://jsfiddle.net/kLXaj/1/
And another example showing adjustments to the button based on the :hover and :active states.
Child Element Approach
The previous example would work with an INPUT[type="button"] as well as BUTTON. The BUTTON tag is allowed to contain markup and is intended for situations which require greater flexibility. After re-reading the original question, here are several more examples: http://jsfiddle.net/kLXaj/5/
This approach automatically repositions image/text based on the size of the button and provides more control over the internal layout of the button.
Change button display style to inline-block, img float to left. Add margin to img as necessary.
<button style="display:inline-block">
<img src="url" style="float:left;margin-right:0.5em">Caption
</button>
If you want to use image inside the button not in the CSS I think this help you:

Adding float left to the image works to an extent. A judicious use of padding and image sizing fixes the issue with having the text stuck to the top of the button. See this jsFiddle.
I've tried using the scenario in the link below too show hidden text when mouse over text. It works fine with text but what my client is needing is to hide the webbot HitCounter and show it when they place the mouse over. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Show hidden text on hover (CSS)
<div id="DivForHoverItem">
<div id="HiddenText"><p class="auto-style4">
<!--webbot bot="HitCounter" i-image="0" I-ResetValue="0" I-Digits="0" U-Custom --></p></div>
</div>
</div>
CSS Code:
/* Div for hover item */
#DivForHoverItem {
height: 50px;
width: 300px;
background-color: black;
text-align:center;
}
#HiddenText {
display:none;
}
#DivForHoverItem:hover #HiddenText {
display:block;
}
Remember that display:none "removes" element (div do not occupy space) from layout. So You have nothing to point with cursor (without creating another wrapping div/divs with fixed size, or gettinng into js and conditions of another element) to start the hover effect.
So maybe outer wrapper div?
Maybe visibility: hidden in place display:none?
Maybe Changing the Z-Index?
Or another div on top of counter (covering it with background solid color) with alpha transparency change on hover (even fading out css animation) ?
JFIDDLE DEMO
As you can see on the jsfiddle link, I have a button with tooltip display on mouse hover. The problem is that tooltip area isn't overlaying the parent div and will display only inside the div.
I know that if I remove .panel-heading {
overflow:hidden;
} this will work but I need this css to stay for some of the responsive issues. I have tried adding .toolt {
overflow:visible;
} to tooltip div but it won't work.
You can change container of tooltip
$('.toolt span').tooltip({container:'body'});
