how to hide the border of a recaptcha v2.0 widget? - html

I want to hide the border of a recaptcha v2.0 widget so that I can better visually integrate it into my site's look and feel.
NOTE: I'm posting this as a question, and providing a solution, because most of the StackOverflow questions I've found on the topic center around removing the frameborder attribute of the recaptcha's iframe, which isn't technically what I'm after. I'm after the result of that -- an edgeless recaptcha widget that I can position within a larger visual context.
I hope this is helpful!

I wanted to hide the borders of a v2.0 ReCaptcha (the one with the "I'm not a robot" checkbox), and solved it as follows:
Wrap the recaptcha div (the one that is marked with the class "g-recaptcha") with another div, and size it a bit smaller than the iframe comes in at, and shift the iframe using position: relative and left: -10px, to hide the borders.
If you're using the "compact" version, you'll need to adjust the sizing... the css I provide works for the "normal" version.
NOTE: Tested on Safari 9.1.2 (OSX) only, but I'd guess the technique will translate to other browsers too.
Hope this helps!
html:
<div class="my-div"><div class="g-recaptcha" data-size="normal" data-sitekey="<your site key>"></div><div>
css:
.my-div {
display: inline-block;
overflow: hidden;
width: 290px; /* note the embedded iframe is 302x76 */
height: 74px;
text-align: left;
}
.my-div iframe {
position: relative;
left: -10px;
}

NOTE: for people brought here by google but with different problem
If you want to hide just borders not making it edge less keeping original design just do following:
HTML:
<div class="captcha"><div class="g-recaptcha" data-size="normal" data-sitekey="<your site key>"></div><div></div>
CSS:
.captcha iframe {
position: relative;
box-shadow: none !important;
}

Firefox vs Chrome padding

I have a control that I am trying to highlight when it is selected. I'm achieving this using padding on a div and some positioning so that it surrounds the control. The problem I'm encountering is that the padding on the highlighter div renders differently in chrome and in firefox. Everything I've read says that they render the same so this shouldn't be a problem.
Chrome:
Firefox:
Here's a fiddle that has the problem on it:
http://jsfiddle.net/5fuGB/1/
.control{
position: absolute;
width: 100px;
height: 20px;
top: 30px;
left: 300px;
z-index: 1;
}
.highlighter{
background-color: orange;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height:100%;
left: -2px;
top: -2px;
padding-right: 8px;
padding-bottom: 10px;
z-index: -1;
}
input{
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
}
My Chrome Version:
Version 31.0.1650.63 m on Windows 7
My Firefox Version:
25.0 on Windows 7
Thanks for any help you guys can offer.
I believe the difference you are seeing is a difference which comes from the user agent stylesheet, browsers have their own default stylesheets which they use to render things like input elements. In your case it is probably a difference in the padding applied to the input element. You should specifically set eg: padding: 0px; or padding: 1px; on the input element, and then work out how to get it to look right for an input with the specified fixed padding. This will then override the styles set by the user agent style sheet.
Update
I moved to my Windows PC to have a go at fixing it. One way to fix this using one of the vendor specific prefixes from the answer linked in the comments is to add -moz-padding-end: 6px; to .highlighter to compensate for the differences in padding between browsers.
Here's a jsFiddle which fixes your issue, a footnote tho, I can already tell you that this probably won't fix it on Chrome for OSX, which was also rendering things the Firefox way.
Another way to fix this is by adding -moz-padding-start: 1px; -moz-padding-end: 1px; to input, but doing so somehow changes the bottom padding as well, which makes things look not as pretty in Firefox as with the other fix.
I'd go about it differently. Instead of using an extra div, I'd recommend using a combination of border-color and box-shadow on the input's :focus state to achieve the effect you're going for.
Check out this modified fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/5fuGB/2/
Just experienced the same issue with my code, and fixed it too. The trick is if you use display: inline-block then line-height makes sense. Try it when debugging your code.
You're doing a little more than what's necessary. To get a highlight around that input you can use :focus
So it would be something like this:
CSS
input {
border: 1px solid white;
}
input:focus {
border: 1px solid orange;
}
That will give the input a white "invisible" border so it doesn't move the input when you click into it. It will simply change the border color to orange to get that highlight effect you're looking for.
EDIT
Just saw your comment. I dont have the rep to comment so I'll just add on to this.
If you aren't using the inputs as actual inputs, then I would just make them divs. Inputs render differently by default so that would mess with consistency across browsers.
I'd also recommend experimenting with those divs within one another and making the most outside div relative.
Outside Div <------ position:relative;
Middle Div <------- position: absolute;
Inner div <-------- position: absolute;
Also, if you need a selected state but don't want or are hindered by inputs then I'd recommend jQuery for modifying the css based on user interaction.

How can I style a part of a single character with overlays using a dynamic width?

Question
Can I style just a part of a single character?
Meaning
CSS attributes cannot be assigned to parts of characters. But if you want to style only a certain section of a character, there is no standardized way to do that.
Example
Is it possible to style an "X" which is half-way red and then black?
Not working code
<div class="content">
X
</div>
.content {
position: relative;
font-size: 50px;
color: black;
}
.content:after {
content: 'X';
color: red;
width: 50%;
position: absolute;
overflow: hidden;
}
Demo on jsFiddle
Purpose
My intention is styling the Font Awesome icon-star symbol. If I have an overlay with dynamic width, shouldn't it be possible to create an exact visualization of scores?
While playing around with a demo fiddle, i figured it out myself and wanted to share my solution. It's quite simple.
First things first: The DEMO
To partly style a single character, you need extra markup for your content. Basically, you need to duplicate it:
<​div class="content">
<span class="overlay">X</span>
X
</div>
Using pseudo-elements like :after or :before would be nicer, but i didn't found a way to do that.
The overlay needs to be positioned absolutely to the content element:
​.content {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
color: black;
}
​.overlay {
width: 50%;
position: absolute;
color: red;
overflow: hidden;
}​
Do not forget overflow: hidden; in order to cut off the remaing part of the "X".
You can use any width instead of 50% which makes this approach very flexible. You can even use a custom height, other CSS attributes or a combination of multiple attributes.
Extended DEMO
Great work on your solution. I’ve got a version that uses :after (instead of duplicating the content in the HTML) working in Chrome 19.
http://jsfiddle.net/v5xzJ/4/
Basically:
Set position:relative on .content
Position :after absolutely
Set :after to overflow:hidden
Adjust the width, height, text-indent and line-height of :after to hide bits of it.
I’m not sure if it’ll work well cross-browser though — the em values will probably work out a bit differently. (Obviously it definitely won’t work in IE 7 or below.)
In addition, you end up having to duplicate the content in your CSS file instead of the HTML, which might not be optimal depending on the situation.

Achieving foreground-image effect

I display a few images of varying width and height, and I'd like to be able to add a class or two, say new or hot that would add small overlay star or something.
Normally this would be solved by making a div with the intended image being the background, but having my images all of unknown size, I'm getting stuck trying to figure out how to achieve this. Current HTML is of structure: <a><img></a>
I'm looking for a CSS feature that doesn't exist:
img.new { foreground:transparent url('/images/new.png') no-repeat bottom right }
I'm really hoping to solve this without databasing my image sizes, and without using javascript. But if you have a JS/jquery approach that's elegant, I'm all ears.
I'm not sure how well this would work for you, but if you can add the class to your <a> element instead of your <img>:
<a class="new" href="..."><img src="..." alt="alt text"></a>
Then you can try adding an a:after pseudo-element positioned absolutely over your <img> and giving it the overlay icon as a background image:
a.new {
display: inline-block;
position: relative;
}
a.new:after {
display: block;
position: absolute;
content: '';
width: /* width of overlay image or anything you choose */;
height: /* height of overlay image or anything you choose */;
right: 0;
bottom: 0;
background: transparent url('/images/new.png') no-repeat;
}
There's a bit of an issue with the positioning of the overlay image as the <a> is made an inline block for positioning to work, but you can always give it a little bottom offset to make up for it. Here's a fiddle to show you what I mean.
Without knowing more details about your setup, there are a few things that come to mind that you can do:
Use img.new:after (Some Quirksmode info on it.). It does have some browser support limitations, though. If you don't mind that some of the older browsers don't support this, then I recommend this one. I've used it before with nice results (and you could also fall back to JavaScript wrapped in IE conditional comments if you really need to, since IE appears to be the only browser out after the feature that doesn't support it).
If you're not using overflow:hidden, you might be able to set it as the background of either your image, its anchor tag, or even the next parent up. This, of course, depends on your exact design.
Use an absolutely positioned div or span within your anchor tag and display only on anchors with the .new class. So, something like this:
<a class="new">
<span class="newBanner">
<img/>
</a>
<style>
.newBanner {
display: none;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
right: 0;
}
.new .newBanner {
display: block;
}
</style>
This last one's kind of rough and will likely need tweaked, but the point is in the styling, specifically the .new .newBanner { display: block; } part. Again, it depends largely on your exact design, so the more information you can give us, the better help we'll be able to give you.

How to show an image on html page using only css?

I want to show images on the page but I don't want to hardcode the references to the images in html.
Is it possible to do something like:
HTML:
<span id="got-easier"></span>
CSS:
#got-easier { image: url(/i/trend-down.gif); }
(IE6 should be supported)
Yes, use a background image :)
#got-easier { background-image: url(/i/trend-down.gif); }
Remember to set a span to display: block; and set width/height of your image if you use it.
As David Dorward pointed out, if it's an image relevant to the information, it should be included in the document with an <img> tag and alt attribute.
Heya, the common term for it is css Image Replacement technique (or IR). Here are the commonly used methods currently. Just choose any of the two ;)
/* Leahy Langridge Method */
span#imageName {
display: block;
height: 0 !important;
overflow: hidden;
padding-top: 0px; /* height of image */
width: 0px; /* width of image */
background: url(url/of/image.jpg) no-repeat
}
/* Phark Method */
span#imageName {
display: block;
width: 0px;
height: 0px;
background: url(url/of/image.jpg) no-repeat;
text-indent: -9999px
}
In case you want to display the images inline, position:absolute does the trick:
#got-easier {
display:inline;
position:absolute;
width:img-Xpx;
height:img-Ypx;
background:url(/i/trend-down.gif) no-repeat;
}
The only problem with this is that, since the image position is absolute, it will overlay whatever is next to it (in IE6 it might appear behind), and the workarounds that I found to fix this (with both CSS and jQuery) aren't supported in IE6. Your image-container will have to be followed by new line.
This might be useful when, for instance, you'd like to place a (?) image next to a form caption or a button (that usually have nothing next to them) to display help with onmouseover.

css max width not working in ul li div img

I have a gallery with a frame around the thumbnails, I have used max-width to shrink the thumbnail images so they all line up nicely, but in IE althought the image shrinks to the max width the frame still expands as if the image was larger. I have tried adding a max-width to the li but to no avail.
Here is a link to the page that looks nice and uniformed in Chrome and FF bt all over the shop in IE! http://wedding-photography-gloucestershire.co.uk/wedding-photography-gallery.php?gallery=Getting%20Ready
Wedding Photography Gallery
thanks in advance of any help.
This is the frame style..
.highslide-gallery ul li {
display: block;
position: relative;
float: left;
width: 106px;
height: 106px;
border: 1px solid silver;
margin: 2px;
line-height: 0;
overflow: hidden;
background-color: #000;
max-width: 106px;
}
I tried adding this which I found on another website as a solution to IE max width problems, but i don't really understand it ;
width:expression(document.body.clientWidth > 106? "106px": "auto" );
but it still didn't work.
Thank you.
IE treats padding/margin differently than the other browsers. I looked at your stylesheet (highside) and you need to have a stylesheet for ie specifically and then you can target IE specifically without worrying about how the changes you make effect the other browsers. I personally wouldn't do that but I used to do it when I was experimenting in web development.
The easiest way for you to figure out what's going wrong and where it is going wrong is to use firebug. Safari and IE have similar debug environments as well. There are some really good tutorials on using firebug out on http://net.tutsplus.com
Good luck.
