Probem I have a CSS button which am able to click only on the test area.
I am unable to click on the non-text area of the button.
Here is the HTML code for the "EDIT" button on my website.
<div class="stndrd_btn">
<p><?php echo $html->link('Edit','... destination....'); ?></p>
</div>
Below is the CSS code for the button.
.stndrd_btn {
width:140px;
height:30px;
background:url(img/stndrd_btn.png);
color:#FFF;
cursor: pointer;
}
.stndrd_btn p {
color:#FFF;
margin:0 auto;
text-align:center;
vertical-align: middle;
padding-top:6px;
font-size:14px;
font-weight: bold;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
display: block;
cursor:pointer;
}
Please let me know how i can make the clicking work all over the button. THANKS!!
Make the <a> tag display: block and give it a width and height, so that the button fully consists of the <a> element.
Go to Google
Alternatively, you can give it a border so that the text is in the middle of the button:
Go to Google
I think the problem is that the p tag is inside the div but you apply the background image to the div but the link in the p. The p also has padding.
So in a nutshell try do it all in the one tag.
EDIT: like #Sjoerd says: use the a tag.
You don't really need the p tag. Apply everything to the div and I think you should be ok. I would really apply the click to an href though then you can also have a fallback if nesseccary for people without JS or search engines.
<div class="stndrd_btn">
<?php echo $html->link('Edit','... destination....'); ?>
</div>
In this case apply the button properties to the a tag.
make the <a> as display:block and give it padding as something like
padding:5px 5px 5px 5px;
this will increase the click area of a link
Try to use "a href" tag only and then add padding and background to it. padding: 5px 5px; background:grey; This will look like a button and will be clickable.

I have a problem at my Website.
I want to "print" text on the left of an image. But I dont know how to do this.
Here my Site: link
Here how it should look: link
Can someone help me please?
Replace the img tag with:
<img src="http://martin-fischer.tk/assets/img/AVRStick.png" style="float: left;">
<p>Here the text</p>
Demo.
Update: As per the attached image to align the text with image you could use float:left. And your layout won't broke so you have to clear the float either using clearfix Method or you can use overflow:hidden on parent div. In addition to be safer side you could display:inline-block.
By Using #media query you can create a stylesheet for screen, mobile and even you can control the elements while printing the document. Have a Look at the DEMO.
In this example in print preview you can see the changes. Elements position is change for print and the font will turn red.
#media screen {
p {
font-family: verdana,sans-serif;
font-size: 14px;
float:left;
}
img{float:left;}
}
#media print {
p {
font-size: 20px;
color: red;
float:right;
}
img{float:right;}
}
<- I mean this dotted border (top-left corner is shown).
It supposed to be a button with link. It looks great, but when I click on it, browser draws a border around it. If I remove the <a> from code and click again, border won't be drawn
CSS:
#button{
padding: 0.5em;
margin: 0 auto;
border-radius: 3px;
background-color: #B3C833;
font-family: 'Consolas',monospace;
font-size: 3em;
display: inline-block;
}
HTML:
<a href="#">
<div id="button">
<span id="pref">http://</span><span id="addr">example.com</span>
</div>
</a>
You need to add this porperty:
a {
outline:none;
}
That border is there for accessibility, and shouldn't be removed. It allows people that are disabled and accessing your site via keyboard to see where the focus is.
Check out outlinenone.com
If you don't mind losing a portion of your traffic, you can remove it anyway with:
a {
outline:none;
}
I have CSS with an image
.backgroundImg {
background: url('./path/file.gif');
background-repeat: no repeat;
width: 24px;
height: 24px;
}
.ui-highlight {
border: 2px solid green;
color: #363636;
padding: 0.7em;
}
I have div tag which imports this class
<div class="ui-highlight ui-corner-all">
<div class="backgroundImg" style="float:left;">
some text.........
</div>
</div>
EDIT
I am trying to achieve a bordered box with image on the left and text on the right of the image. I inspected the element and the image shows up when I hover over the ui-highlight class
I know css and honestly I am not a pro at it. Can someone help me why the image doesn't show up
UPDATE
After adding width and height to the backgroundImg class the image is visible.
The first thing I would do is use Firebug for Firefox or the Developer Tools in a Webkit browser to inspect your situation.
Right-click on "some text...." and choose Inspect Element.
In the HTML inspector click on the div with the class "backgroundImg"
On the right hand side you should see the CSS inspector for this element. Hover your mouse over ('./path/file.gif') and see if the image thumbnail loads. If it doesn't you may have the path set-up incorrectly.
Hover over the div in the HTML inspector and see how it highlights on the page. It may be that your div isn't taking up enough space to reveal the image. If this is the case you'll need to set a width/height or put more content in the div to fill it out.
The jQuery UI classes on your parent div (ui-highlight ui-corner-all) might be setting some styles that obscure the image in the child div. Make sure to inspect this with the HTML/CSS inspector as well.
What you're trying to do from your code is give the text with the background of the image. It works, but not in the way you're intending. Replace the backgroundImg div with an tag in the HTML, with the "align='top'" element. The code I've got is:
<html>
<head>
<style type="text/css">
.ui-highlight {
border: 2px solid green;
color: #363636;
padding: 0.7em;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="ui-highlight">
<img src="path/img.gif" style="padding:0px;" align="top">
some text.........
</br>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Try using an absolute path:
background: url('/path/from/root/file.gif')
Or:
background: url('http://example.com/path/from/root/file.gif')
This ensures that there is no ambiguity as to where the image is coming from.
First of all i would advise you to apply some sort of clearfix. The easy way would be to add overflow:hidden; to your .ui-highlight. This is required to give the wrapper some height. DDo some searching on clearfix for the how and why.
Second a would check if the image is actually getting loaded, your path might be wrong. Checking it in the code inspector from Chrome would be the way for me.
There's nothing syntactically with your CSS which leads me to believe that the image is not where you specify in your CSS. Try an absolute URL or a path relative to the CSS file itself.
However: I'm not sure you're going to get the results you're looking for with this CSS, though. If you try changing
background: url('./path/file.gif');
to
background: #f00;
you can preview what you're going to get when you get the image url worked out.
Since you say that you're trying to get "a bordered box with image on the left and text on the right of the image" you might try something like this:
CSS:
.ui-highlight {
background: url('http://www.site.com/file.gif') top left no-repeat;
border: 2px solid green;
color: #363636;
padding: 0.7em;
padding-left: 90px; /* This should be the width of the background image */
}
HTML:
<div class="ui-highlight">
some text.........
</div>
That would draw a border around the div, add a background image to the top left of the div, then write the text to the right of that image.
I have a simple button (as shown below) on which I need to display two pictures, one on either side of the button text. Im battling to create the CSS that will work in both Firefox and Internet Explorer! (the button images are coming from a JQuery UI skin file)
CSS
button div{
width:16px;
height:16px;
background-image: url(images/ui-icons_d19405_256x240.png);
}
button div.leftImage{
background-position: -96px -112px;
float: left;
}
button div.rightImage{
background-position: -64px -16px;
float: right;
}
HTML
<button><div class="leftImage"></div><span>Button Text</span><div class="rightImage"></div></button>
Preview
Firefox
Internet Explorer 8
Here is how to do it
The Theory
Block elements (like DIV) although displayed in order of creation, will position themselves adjacent to the previous element or when short of space, on the next line. Because we dont want to give the button a width (we want the button to be automatically sized based on the content of the button) the block elements continued to appear on the next line (see IE8 image in the question above). Using white-space:nowrap forces inline elements (like SPAN and EM) to be displayed on the same line, but is ignored by block elements, hence the solution below.
CSS
button{
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
font-family:Lucida Sans MS, Tahoma;
font-size: 12px;
color: #000;
white-space:nowrap;
width:auto;
overflow:visible;
height:28px;
}
button em{
vertical-align:middle;
margin:0 2px;
display:inline-block;
width:16px;
height:16px;
background-image: url(images/ui-icons_3d3d3d_256x240.png);
}
button em.leftImage{
background-position: -96px -112px;
}
button em.rightImage{
background-position: -64px -16px;
}
HTML
<button><em class="leftImage"></em>Button<em class='rightImage'></em></button>
The Result
Internet Explorer 6, 7, 8 and Firefox 1.5, 2, 3
I would use spans not divs for the image containers, since you seem to want the images to appear inline. Using floated divs is just too complex.
In fact, you could probably simplify things further by applying one background image to the button itself, and one to the button-text span, and removing the other two containers altogether.
Another alternative is to simply add the images in as img tags.
try resetting the button css.
button{
border:none;
background:none;
padding:0;
margin:0;
}
And add a space inside an empty DIV see if it works.
<button><div class="leftPic"> </div><span>Button Text</span><div class="rightPic"> </div></button>
I think you can strip off the button tag and use a div tag instead.For other button action use javascript onlick() function and use css to change curser on hover(to make it look like button).For my project I used a similar approach.This may help you :)
I know this is already solved, but just wanted to add that an easy way to put more than 1 image in a button is creating 1 .png with the dimensions of the button you want to create and the to elements together in one file.
I know this is probably the dumbest question ever, however I am a total beginner when it comes to CSS; how do you hyperlink an image on a webpage using an image which is sourced from CSS? I am trying to set the title image on my website linkable to the frontpage. Thanks!
Edit: Just to make it clear, I'm sourcing my image from CSS, the CSS code for the header div is as follows:-
#header
{
width: 1000px;
margin: 0px auto;
padding: 0px 15px 0px 15px;
border: none;
background: url(images/title.png) no-repeat bottom;
width: 1000px;
height: 100px;
}
I want to know how to make this div hyperlinked on my webpage without having to make it an anchor rather than a div.
You control design and styles with CSS, not the behavior of your content.
You're going to have to use something like <a id="header" href="[your link]">Logo</a> and then have a CSS block such as:
a#header {
background-image: url(...);
display: block;
width: ..;
height: ...;
}
You cannot nest a div inside <a> and still have 'valid' code. <a> is an inline element that cannot legally contain a block element. The only non-Javascript way to make a link is with the <a> element.
You can nest your <a> tag inside <div> and then put your image inside :)
If you don't want that, you're going to have to use JavaScript to make your <div> clickable:
Document.getElementById("header").onclick = function() {
window.location='...';
}
To link a css-sourced background-image:
#header {
display:block;
margin: 0px auto;
padding: 0px 15px 0px 15px;
border: none;
background: url(images/title.png) no-repeat bottom;
width: 1000px;
height: 100px;
}
<a id="header" href="blah.html" class="linkedImage">
The key thing here is to turn the anchor tag into a block element, so height and width work. Otherwise it's an inline element and will ignore height.
That's really not a CSS thing. You still need your A tag to make that work. (But use CSS to make sure the image border is either removed, or designed to your required spec.)
<img src="foo" class="whatever" alt="foo alt" />
EDIT: Taking original intent (updated question) into account, a new code sample is below:
<img id="header" alt="foo alt" />
You're still in an HTML world for links, as described by other answers on this question.
sorry to spoil your fun ladies and gentlemen, it is possible.
Write in your header: [link](http://"link here")
then in your css:
#header a[href="https://link here"] {
display: inline-block;
width: 75px;
height: 75px;
font-size: 0;
}
.side .md a[href="link here"] {
background: url(%%picture here%%) no-repeat;
}
then in your css
.titleLink {
background-image: url(imageUrl);
}
You still create links in HTML with 'a' (anchor) tags just like normal. CSS does not have anything that can specify if something is a link to somewhere or not.
Edit
The comments of mine and others still apply. To clarify, you can use JavaScript to make a div act as a link:
<div id="header" onclick="window.location='http://google.com';">My Header</div>
That isn't really great for usability however as people without JavaScript enabled will be unable to click that and have it act as a link.
Also, you may want to add a cursor: pointer; line to your CSS to give the header div the correct mouse cursor for a link.
CSS is for presentation only, not content. A link is content and should be put into the HTML of the site using a standard <a href=""> tag. You can then style this link (or add an image to the link) using CSS.
You have to use an anchor element, wrapped in a container. On your homepage, your title would normally be an h1, but then on content pages it would probably change to a div. You should also always have text in the anchor element for people without CSS support and/or screen readers. The easiest way to hide that is through CSS. Here are both examples:
<h1 id="title"><a title="Home" href="index.html>My Title</a></h1>
<div id="title"><a title="Home" href="index.html>My Title</a></div>
and the CSS:
#title {
position:relative; /*Makes this a containing element*/
}
#title a {
background: transparent url(../images/logo.png) no-repeat scroll 0 0;
display:block;
text-indent:-9999px; /*Hides the anchor text*/
height:50px; /*Set height and width to the exact size of your image*/
width:200px;
}
Depending on the rest of your stylesheet you may need to adjus it for the h1 to make it look the same as the div, check out CSS Resets for possible solutions to this.
Try this - use an H1 as the seat of your graphic instead. Saved my butt time and time again:
<h1 class="technique-six">
CSS-Tricks
</h1>
h1.technique-six {
width: 350px;
padding: 75px 0 0 0;
height: 0;
background: url("images/header-image.jpg") no-repeat;
overflow: hidden;
}
Accessible, and also solid across browsers IE6 and > . You could also link the H1.
HTML is the only way to create links - it defines the structure and content of a web site.
CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets - it only affects how things look.
Although normally an <a/>; tag is the only way to create a link, you can make a <div/> clickable with JavaScript. I'd use jQuery:
$("div#header").click(function() {window.location=XXXXXX;});
