Remove border circle from radio input - html

Question

I wanted to use image instead of regular radio inputs.
I made it this way:
input[type="radio"]{
content:url('/images/new-home-page/Checkbox.png');
height:3vh;
width:3vh;
}
input[type="radio"]:checked{
content:url('/images/new-home-page/checkedCheckbox.png');
}
Unfortunately, they have circles around them. I have tried to use border:none or text-decoration:none but it doesnt help. Could someone help me with this please?
They look like this now:

Answer 1

I would request you to use the appearance property of CSS, which is responsible for the components like this. So setting the appearance: none will make a kind of display: none to the component's appearance, which is what is needed for you. You are good to use this bit of CSS to make the component not display, while keeping the element in the view:
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
-ms-appearance: none;
-o-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
Snippet
input {
content: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/M3EkO.png');
height: 16px;
width: 16px;
-webkit-appearance: none;
-moz-appearance: none;
appearance: none;
}
input:checked {
content: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/Ialva.png');
}
Checkbox:
<input type="checkbox" name="" id="" /> <br />
Radios:
<input type="radio" name="Hi" id="" />
<input type="radio" name="Hi" id="" />

You must hide radio buttons and add more elements like <span> and <label>

Answer 3

Here is a another interesting solution, using pseudo element, where you also get rid of the surrounding focus outline.
The really good with this is it works on IE 8-11 as well, which unfortunately the better solution using appearence don't.
input[type="radio"] {
display:none;
}
input[type="radio"] + label {
position: relative;
padding-left: 54px;
cursor:pointer;
font-size: 26px;
}
input[type="radio"] + label:before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
left: 0;
top: 50%;
margin-top: -22px;
width:46px;
height:46px;
background: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/M3EkO.png');
background-size: contain;
}
input[type="radio"]:checked + label:before {
background: url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/Ialva.png');
}
<input id="cb" value="1" name="cb" type="radio">
<label for="cb">Text 1</label>
<input id="cb2" value="2" name="cb" type="radio">
<label for="cb2">Text 2</label>

Answer 4

i would suggest a whole other solution.
input[type="checkbox"], input[type="radio"] {
display:none;
}
input[type="checkbox"] + label{
padding-left:35px;
}
input[type="checkbox"] + label span {
display:inline-block;
width:52px; /* width of the checkbox */
height:53px; /* height of the checkbox */
margin:-1px 10px 0 -35px;
vertical-align:middle;
background:url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/M3EkO.png') left top no-repeat;
cursor:pointer;
}
/* replaces the image if checked.*/
input[type="checkbox"]:checked + label span {
background:url('http://i.stack.imgur.com/Ialva.png') left top no-repeat;
}
<input id="cb" value="" type="checkbox">
<label for="cb"><span></span> Text</label>
With this Solution you wont have any Problems in all browsers.
It will hide the checkbox itself, but it still works because you can click the label, which is connected to the checkbox.
In this label there is a span with your background image and the sizes of it. So it still looks like a checkbox and your hidden checkbox will be "checked" or "unchecked"

Answer 5

Add this in your css file:
input[type=radio]{
display:none;
}

Here is a simple work around to get customized radio buttons
https://jsfiddle.net/sudheer219/fj8heLcp/
Code:
[HTML]
<ul>
<li>
<input type='radio' value='1' name='radio' id='radio1'/>
<label for='radio1'><span></span>Value 1</label>
</li>
<li>
<input type='radio' value='2' name='radio' id='radio2'/>
<label for='radio2'><span></span>Value 2</label>
</li>
<li>
<input type='radio' value='3' name='radio' id='radio3'/>
<label for='radio3'><span></span>Value 3</label>
</li>
</ul>
[CSS]
ul {
list-style: none;
}
li {
display: inline-block;
margin-right: 15px;
}
input {
visibility: hidden;
}
label {
cursor: pointer;
}
input:checked+label span {
background: red;
}
span {
display: inline-block;
width: 18px;
height: 18px;
border-radius: 50%;
border: 2px inset #444;
position: relative;
top: 3px;
margin-right: 4px;
}
