I want to change the color of my hr tag using CSS. The code I've tried below doesn't seem to work:
hr {
color: #123455;
}
I think you should use border-color instead of color, if your intention is to change the color of the line produced by <hr> tag.
Although, it has been pointed in comments that, if you change the size of your line, border will still be as wide as you specified in styles, and line will be filled with the default color (which is not a desired effect most of the time). So it seems like in this case you would also need to specify background-color (as suggested by #Ibu).
HTML 5 Boilerplate project in its default stylesheet specifies the following rule:
hr {
display: block;
height: 1px;
border: 0;
border-top: 1px solid #ccc;
margin: 1em 0;
padding: 0;
}
An article titled “12 Little-Known CSS Facts”, published recently by SitePoint, mentions that <hr> can set its border-color to its parent's color if you specify hr { border-color: inherit }.
border-color works in Chrome and Safari.
background-color works in Firefox and Opera.
color works in IE7+.
I think this can be useful. this was simple CSS selector.
hr { background-color: red; height: 1px; border: 0; }
<hr>
hr {
height: 1px;
color: #123455;
background-color: #123455;
border: none;
}
Doing it this way allows you to change the height if needed. Good luck. Source: How To Style HR with CSS
Tested in Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer, Chrome and Safari.
hr {
border-top: 1px solid red;
}
See the Fiddle.
Only border-top with color is enough to make the line in different color.
hr {
border-top: 1px solid #ccc;
}
<hr>
This will keep the Horizontal Rule 1px thick while also changing the color of it:
hr {
height: 0;
border: 0;
border-top: 1px solid #083972;
}
hr {
color: #f00;
background-color: #f00;
height: 5px;
}
After reading all the answers here, and seeing the complexity described, I set upon a small diversion for experimenting with HR. And, the conclusion is that you can throw out most of the monkeypatched CSS you wrote, read this small primer and just use these two lines of pure CSS:
hr {
border-style: solid;
border-color: cornflowerblue; /* or whatever */
}
That is ALL you need to style your HRs.
Works cross-browser, cross-device, cross-os, cross-english-channel, cross-ages.
No "I think this will work...", "you need to keep Safari/IE in mind...", etc.
no extra css - no height, width, background-color, color, etc. involved.
Just bulletproof colourful HRs. It's that simpleTM.
Bonus: To give the HR some height H, just set the border-width as H/2.
I believe this is the most effective approach:
<hr style="border-top: 1px solid #ccc; background: transparent;">
Or if you prefer doing it on all hr elements write this on you CSS:
hr {
background-color: transparent;
border-top: 1px solid #ccc;
}
hr {
background-color: #123455;
}
The background is the one you should try to change.
You can also work with the borders color. I am not sure; I think there are cross-browser issues with this. You should test it in different browsers.
You can add bootstrap bg class like
<hr class="bg-light" />
if u use css class then it will be taken by all 'hr' tags , but if u want for a particular 'hr' use the below code i.e, inline css
<hr style="color:#99CC99" />
if it's not working in chrome try below code:
<hr color="red" />
Some browsers use the color attribute and some use the background-color attribute. To be safe:
hr {
color: #color;
background-color: #color;
}
It's simple and my favorite.
<hr style="background-color: #dd3333" />
I'm testing on IE, Firefox and Chrome May 2015 and this works best with the current versions. It centers the HR and makes it 70% wide:
hr.light {
width:70%;
margin:0 auto;
border:0px none white;
border-top:1px solid lightgrey;
}
<hr class="light" />
You should set border-width to 0; It works well in Firefox and Chrome.
hr {
clear: both;
color: red;
background-color: red;
height: 1px;
border-width: 0;
}
<hr />
This is a test
<hr />
Since i don't have reputation to comment, i will give here a few ideas.
if you want a css variable height, take off all borders and give a background color.
hr{
height:2px;
border:0px;
background:green;
margin:0px;/*sometimes useful*/
}
/*Doesn't work in ie7 and below and in Quirks Mode*/
if you want simply a style that you know that will work (example: to replace a border in a ::before element for most email clients or
hr{
height:0px;
border:0px;
border-top:2px solid blue;
margin:0px;/*useful sometimes*/
}
In both ways, if you set a width, it will always have it's size.
No need to set display:block; for this.
To be totally safe, you can mix both, 'cause some browsers can get confused with height:0px;:
hr{
height:1px;
border:0px;
background:blue;
border-top:1px solid blue;
margin:0px;/*useful sometimes*/
}
With this method you can be sure that it will have at least 2px in height.
It's a line more, but safety is safety.
This is the method you should use to be compatible with almost everything.
Remember: Gmail only detects inline css and some email clients may not support backgrounds or borders. If one fails, you will still have a 1px line. Better than nothing.
In the worst cases, you can try to add color:blue;.
In the worst of the worst cases, you can try to use a <font color="blue"></font> tag and put your precious <hr/> tag inside it. It will inherit the <font></font> tag color.
With this method, you WILL want to do like this: <hr width="50" align="left"/>.
Example:
<span>
awhieugfrafgtgtfhjjygfjyjg
<font color="#42B3E5"><hr width="50" align="left"/></font>
</span>
<!--Doesn't work in ie7 and below and in Quirks Mode-->

You can use CSS to make a line with a different color, example would be like that:
border-left: 1px solid rgb(216, 216, 216);
border-right: medium none;
border-width: medium medium medium 2px;
border-style: none none none solid;
border-color: -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color -moz-use-text-color rgb(216, 216, 216);
that code will display vertical grey line.
I like the answers setting border-top, but they are somehow still a little off in Chrome...
BUT if I set border-top: 1px solid black; and border-bottom: 0px; I end up with a truly single line (that also works fine with higher thickness).
Well, I am new in HTML, CSS and in Java but I tried my way which worked for me in all browsers. I have used JS instead of CSS which doesn't work with some browsers.
First of all I have given id="myHR" to HR element and used it in Java Script.
Here is the Code.
x = document.getElementById("myHR");
y = x.style.width = "600px";
y = x.style.color = "white";
y = x.style.height = "2px";
y = x.style.border = "none";
y = x.style.backgroundColor = "lightgrey";
Code Works For older IE
Tried For Many Colors
<hr color="black">
<hr color="blue">
Using font colours to modify horizontal rules makes them more flexible and easy to use.
The color property isn't inherited by default, so the following needs to be added to hr's to allow color inheritance:
/* allow hr to inherit color */
hr { border: 1px solid;}
/* reusable colour modifier */
.fc_-alpha { color: crimson;}
normal hr:
<hr>
hr with <span class="fc_-alpha">colour modifier</span>:
<hr class="fc_-alpha">
You could do this :
hr {
border: 1px solid red;
}
<hr />
This s a test
<hr />
You can give the <hr noshade> tag and go to your css file and add :
hr {
border-top:0;
color: #123455;
}
<hr noshade />
This s a test
<hr noshade />
As a general rule, you can’t just set the color of a horizontal line with CSS like you would anything else.
First of all, Internet Explorer needs the color in your CSS to read like this:
“color: #123455”
But Opera and Mozilla needs the color in your CSS to read like this:
“background-color: #123455”
So, you will need to add both options to your CSS.
Next, you will need to give the horizontal line some dimensions or it will default to the standard height, width and color set by your browser.
Here is a sample code of what your CSS should look like to get the blue horizontal line.
hr {
border: 0;
width: 100%;
color: #123455;
background-color: #123455;
height: 5px;
}
Or you could just add the style to your HTML page directly when you insert a horizontal line, like this:
<hr style="background:#123455" />
Hope this helps.
I took a bet each way:
hr {
border-top: 1px solid purple;
border-color: purple;
background-color: purple;
color: purple;
}
I was wondering; is it possible to style the css3 resize property?
div {
resize: both;
overflow: auto;
}
I want a horizontal resize, and would like a vertical bar, rather than the little thingamagig in the corner in the default. See images. In short, can I make this:
Into something like this:
...and if this is not possible through css, any other ideas? I would like to keep things as lightweight as possible.
Obs: This answer is for WebKit only, couldn't find for other browsers nor testing with their - names worked.
Code:
Considering you have an element with the following CSS:
.styled {
resize:both;
overflow:auto;
background:orange; /* just for looks */
}
If you add webkit's specific pseudo-selector ::-webkit-resizer, you can style the handle:
::-webkit-resizer {
border: 2px solid yellow;
background: blue;
box-shadow: 0 0 2px 5px red;
outline: 2px dashed green;
/*size does not work*/
display:block;
width: 150px !important;
height: 150px !important;
}

Final thoughts
I've tested with ::-moz-resizer on FF22, didn't worked. so yeah, you are stuck into making the javascript version, mimicking StackOverflow's textarea handle.
Extra info
When styling shadow dom pseudo selectors, do NOT stack them into a single selector ::-webkit-resizer, ::-moz-resizer { /*css*/} because will invalidate the entire selector.
Here is mapped all (or most of) Shadow DOM selectors: https://gist.github.com/afabbro/3759334

It works on every browser, type of device, can be operated with mouse and finger (touch) and doesn't use any image etc.
The trick is to give to user a handle and to expand the handle to whole working area, to avoid mouse/touch to step out from the handle area during moving (it can happen when the javascript function will slow down due to some computer occupation or else)
<div class="cSuwakT" id="idSuwakKontenerGalka"></div>
I need to get rid outer border, just cells border and there should be space between cells . I can't get why it builds this outer border around the table, I just tried this code in separate file
table {
border-collapse: separate;
border-spacing: 4px;
}
table td, table th {
border: 1px solid black;
}
and it display correctly. But on website content it make this outer border. Can somebody help me?
Just do in your css:
.tribe-events-calendar
{
border: 0px!important;
}
OR
#big
{
border: 0px!important;
}
Or, if it's already there the class or id, modify these values to set them as said. Beware the class, because supposedly it should affect other elements.
Reading again your question, if you set it in a different stylesheet it could happen that it overwrites the values of the 0px with the values of the Npx from the other sheet. Merge them into one, or, if you cannot, put the !important; mark after the css that says 0px.
If nothing works, embed (not include) it at the beginning of your file. Last and least (read: NOT ADVISABLE), use inline css.
I tried to add this: "border: none;" to the table element itself inside the HTML and it worked.
I think your problem is this:
table.tribe-events-calendar, .tribe-events-calendar td {
border: 1px solid #BBB;
}
It overrides your css.
Use chrome's "inspect element" or firebug for Firefox to see the problem.
You Just need to change only one place that is,
Original Code
table.tribe-events-calendar, .tribe-events-calendar td {
border: 1px solid #BBBBBB;
After Modification
table.tribe-events-calendar td {
border: 1px solid #BBBBBB;
You can use Firefox FireBug for inspect and do Live edits for CSS and Jquery.

This one will show border for Chrome, FF, IE 8 and 9, but it won't show a border for IE 7.
http://jsfiddle.net/y7HWr/10/
(which is to have a border for <tr>). So I think probably IE 7 is at fault? Even though I don't see books talking about borders for <tr> elements (they talk about for <tr> elements usually), but really it should apply to most any elements? (maybe except elements that doesn't make sense to have borders, such as <meta> or <script> or <style>... otherwise most other elements should be able to have a border?
Instead of marking each <td> to be the class .end-of-category, I change it this way so that it works with IE 7... any alternatives or other ideas?
tr.end-of-category td { border: 6px solid #000 }
table { border-collapse: collapse }
table .end-of-category td { border-bottom: 6px solid #000 }
The above should work, or at least achieve the same if you've only got one border involved - I think it's how the different browser handle border-collapsing, but then again maybe it's just IE
Update: yes, it's IE7
using the separate border model (default) means no-one renders the border on the tr
table { }
table .end-of-category { border-bottom: 6px solid #000 }
So it seems like, IE7 had a difference of opinion again LOL!
Using the collapsed table borders it would be very unlikely an effect couldn't be achieved using the TD borders instead, but still!
.end-of-category td { border: 6px solid #000 }
Works in IE7 and IE6.
