I came across this very neat annotation overlay effect: http://tympanus.net/codrops/2012/05/14/annotation-overlay-effect-with-css3/
You can see a live demo here: http://tympanus.net/Tutorials/CSS3AnnotationOverlayEffect/ (you will need to click on the picture there to see the effect)
I am trying to make the text within annotation <span> clickable with some external link, like:
<span>Easy Theme Options</span>
but it doesn't work... whenever I click on the annotation, it transitions back to full size image.
I appreciate any help, thank you!
I made it work, as you see in this Fiddle.
The problem is that the checkbox is always over the spans. And because all the checkbox and the spans are positioned absolute, changing the z-index wouldn't work! The only way I found it to work with only CSS (by not changing to much) is by messing with the pointer-events property and the <div class="ao-annotations">'s z-index. (z-index is layered within an element. Because the annotations <div> and the checkbox are both in <div class="ao-preview">, changing the <span> z-index wouldn't work.
I did the following:
I set the z-index of the div.ao-annotations higher than the input.ao-toggle. This results to not being able to click on the input, so not being able to toggle.
To solve this I added pointer-events: none to the <div class="ao-annotations">. Now the result is the same, but the <span>s are now positioned on top of the input.
To be able to click on the <span>s I added this CSS:
input.ao-toggle:checked ~ .ao-annotations span{
pointer-events: auto;
}
This results to only being able to click on the <span>s when the checkbox is checked.
Summary:
.ao-annotations {
z-index: 20;
pointer-events: none;
}
input.ao-toggle {
z-index: 10;
}
input.ao-toggle:checked ~ .ao-annotations span{
pointer-events: auto;
}
I am very sad to say this only works in IE11 (and all the other browsers)... So you'd probably have to 'hack' with Javascript or rebuild the HTML / CSS.
I hope you can build on this!

I'm using CSS to ease-in-out some text when a particular psudeo:element is hovered.
The code below is selecting the parent of the .description element I want to show on hover, however the hover effect is happening before I want it to.
.grid-item:hover .description {
visibility: visible;
opacity: 1;
}
When the cursor is a few centimetres above the parent element, the hover state is triggered. I believe this may be a problem with the padding/margins of this element. I've tried many things with no luck.
Here is the full code.
Gently hover a little bit over each image to understand the problem.
You just need to change the CSS selector that shows the text on hover. At the moment, it is triggered when the parent of .image (i.e. .grid-item) is hovered. Instead, if you set it as follows, it will be triggered when the div containing the image is hovered.
.image:hover + .description {
visibility: visible;
opacity: 1;
}
Here's the updated pen: https://codepen.io/anon/pen/WEWmEw?editors=1100
#Jordan Miguel, you're right. It's the padding, as well as the content itself.
If you crack open the dev tools for the browser of you choice (I'm using Chrome's in the picture), you can probably find a tool that will show the box model for a particular CSS element. When selecting your element, you can see the padding on the right and left side that trigger hover.
On the left hand pane of the tools, you can see the element selected as well as the stylings that have been applied. From here you can figure out what you'll need to change in order to get the behavior you expect.
I am having trouble with two buttons at the top of my mobile site
www.thefriendlydentist.ie
They are clickable on desktop but on mobile I get no response?
The html is placed in the header of the WP theme.
<div id="topcontact-2" style="background-color:white;">
<p style="background-color:white;padding:none;"class="call-button" id="call-button"> CALL US </p>
<p style="background-color:white;padding:none;" class="call-button" id="email-button"> EMAIL US </p>
</div>
You need check your all elements (divs) properly, I strongly suggest you using mobile device toolbar on Chrome or Mozilla.
If you look on desktop browser using by mobile device toolbar, you will see the some elements overlapping the all page. So your buttons that you want to click stay behind of those elements.
- Option 1: remove overlapping elements
- Option 2: use z-index to manage them.
<div class="mobile-bg-fix-img-wrap">
<div class="mobile-bg-fix-img" style="/* width: 375px; *//* height: 767px; */"></div>
</div>
You can see in image how above elements fill the page.
How Z-Index Works?
All of us are quite comfortable set some x (left:10px) and y (top:10px) values to elements by using CSS but not for z-index. Z-index property defines the level of an HTML element on the screen. Let's check the elements below.
In brief, z-index will define the closeness of the elements to the user. In this sample you can assign elements like below:
red square z-index:10
blue circle z-index:56
white square z-index:985
in this order, nothing will change. In this case, we know that z-index is relative. Another important thing, we need to know about z-index, it will only work on an element whose position property has been explicitly set to absolute, fixed, or relative
To deep dive, please check the z-index documentation.
How to Activate Mobile Toolbar on Chrome?
Mobile toolbar shows how your elements are placed in a mobile browser. Using this tool, you can detect almost everything you would expect to see in a mobile browser. You can also inspect and alter your CSS codes easily.

Other Possibilites For The Problem
1. Javascript Blocking
Using javascript, you can override original behavior of an HTML element. Check below code, this will prevent the real action of the <a> element.
Non-clickable Link
Using JQuery
<script>
$(".prevent-click").click(function(){
return false;
})
</script>
Using Javascript
document.getElementsByClassName("prevent-click")[0].addEventListener('click', function (event) {
event.preventDefault();
return false;
});
Please check your codes carefully, is there any Javascript code to prevent the original action of HTML elements. In addition, to check this quickly, you can disable all javascript codes on Chrome by following steps below.
Open Developer Console
Go to Settings - right top corner of the inspection tool
Check the box (Disable Javascript)
Refresh the page.
Please go in to your CSS and make this change.
.mobile-bg-fix-wrap .mobile-bg-fix-img {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 125%;
left: 0;
top: 0;
background-size: cover;
}
To:
.mobile-bg-fix-wrap .mobile-bg-fix-img {
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
height: 125%;
background-size: cover;
}
The top and left set to 0 was overlapping the two buttons causing it that you could not click on them.
HTML links not clickable on mobile, but are clickable on desktop.
I have one solution. Try this
Html
<a href="https://www.stackoverflow.com" class="goclick">
css
.goclick{
position: relative;
z-index: 9;
}
For this, go to Google Chrome > Developer tools.
Inspect the element, if it is being overlapped by anything, add clear: both;
to the overlapping element.
Actually, in my issue, it fixed everything.
for me, i had a class with...
z-index: -1
which was forcing the parent <div> to the back. changing this to 0 or simply removing it, solved the problem

I've been looking for a way to easily style checkboxes even in those cases where I don't have labels but I haven't found any answer that completely satisfied me so I decided to try and find a way by myself so that all the others might find it useful.
This is what I ended up with.
CSS Checkbox without label
What I do is basically style the after elements and set pointer-events to none so you'll be able to click true the after element.
This allows us to let the checkbox handle the click and change its state from checked to unchecked and we'll then style the after element depending on the checkbox state.
This will be the unchecked style
.check:after{
pointer-events: none;
background: white;
content: ...
....
}
And then we'll have our checked style
.check:checked:after{
background: green; /* Change background and maybe image */
....
}
Please notice that the original checkbox will be still visible under the after element since we can't hide it (hiding it will end up hiding after and before elements too) so you can't play with transparency on your after element but you can still play with background image position and background color as I did in the example.
I hope this will help you with your styles! :)
I recently modified a bit of a button to give it a 3d effect in a bootstrap site.
The result satisfied me, but when I applied the style to tag <button> instead of <a> I had several problems.
You can find the code in question here: http://jsfiddle.net/wctGM/3/
I hope someone can help me, because I can not in any way to move forward
You must use border: none:
button {
border: none;
margin-top : 50px;
}
Your code:
http://jsfiddle.net/wctGM/7/
There are some things which are different to each other. For an instance if you set the border:none; property for a button you will get rid of that border. But the width and height remains different. What I mean to say is go through the default properties which are set on each html tag and try to understand them and then try to change.
See this link. I have added border property like below.
button {
margin-top : 50px;
border:none;
}
I found a mobile web template, but its not clean. 1 major problem is some text is unselectable . please check http://codepen.io/rexmizan/pen/uAwke check "All Text of this box is unselectable" in ul class=box. you will find ul.box2 in CSS on line: 230
Please help me to fix my problem.
Thanks.
You just need to give z-index: 2 to your ul.box2 css element, as there is some other element with same z-index overlapping it, so replace your following css:
ul.box2 {
position: relative;
z-index: 1; /* prevent shadows falling behind containers with backgrounds */
...
...
for this one:
ul.box2 {
position: relative;
z-index: 2; /* prevent shadows falling behind containers with backgrounds */
...
...
with above change is working fine, see the demo
In your CSS you have #inner:before with z-index:5;. This appears to be putting a div over the box2 which causes it to be selected instead of box2's contents. You can see this happen in Chrome when you right click on the text and choose Inspect element. The element it inspects is #inner not #box2.
Good luck.
