There is a way to solve a css border when you use different sizes for left and bottom for example? like that:
I know that's angled but but there is a way to use some kind of clipping or mask or even z index on that ?
my css:
.activity-container{
border-bottom: 1px solid #color-border-light;
border-left: 5px solid #color-green;
position: relative;
}
Thanks
The z-index property does not apply to border values, and all border sides extend into the element that they are applied to. I'd suggest outline if you wanted a border that extends outside the element, but outline can't be applied to individual sides, so it has to be consistent around the element.
All that said, you could use box-shadow to act as a psuedo-border on the left side of your element since it can be applied in a way that either extends outside or inside the element (outside by default):
.bordered {
box-sizing: border-box;
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
border: 1px solid red;
border-left: none;
box-shadow: -5px 0px 0px 0px green;
}
<div class="bordered"></div>
What I'm doing is hiding the left side of the border and replacing it with a box-shadow that extends outside the left of the element. Since the border extends to the inside and box-shadow is extending outward, they meet rather than overlap.

I would like to use the CSS :before selector to create a copy of my current div styles, and overlay it on top of my initial div. But I am unable to do this, without changing the :before position.
Why does this happen, and how can I assure that the position of these two is always the same?
.example {
margin: 100px;
height: 100px;
width: 100px;
background-color: transparent;
border: 5px solid red;
border-radius: 50%;
border-right-color: transparent;
display: block;
}
.example:before {
content: "";
display: block;
border: 5px solid yellow;
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
background-color: transparent;
border-right-color: transparent;
border-radius: 50%;
}
<div class='example'/>
Why does this happen
Because the ::before pseudo element is rendered as if it was the first child element of the div, so it has to be inside the border of the parent element. It's top left static position is offset by 5px from what you perceive as the dimensions of the parent, but which is actually the border outside of those. That borders are rounded to be circle-shaped might confuse one's perception of things here at first glance. (Thanks DaniP for clarification.)
And so you have stuck a 110px wide and high (5px borders on each side plus 100px width/height) child into an element that itself is just 100px by 100px, so it must overflow out of the parent. Add overflow: hidden to the div, or an outline, and you see where the pseudo child gets cut off.
overlay it on top of my initial div
For example margin:-5px on the pseudo child would do.
Depending on what you want to achieve in the end, it might not be the best approach. For example if the div is eventually going to contain actual (text) content, then the pseudo child would push that out of the way. As an alternative, you could position the div relative, and the pseudo child absolute, with top/left -5px each, that would achieve the same positioning of the child. If it needs to be behind content, add z-index.
i'm trying to insert a border to a css shape that i created.
Here the css shape that i created
Here what happens when i insert the border
What do i need to change on my css?
.jologo{
width: 200px;
height: 0;
border-bottom: 40px solid #262627;
border-left: 5px solid #f15c5c;
border-right: 40px solid transparent;
}
Thanks
Without changing the HTML, you could always add the border via an absolutely pseudo element. Just be sure to relatively position the parent element. (example)
.jologo:after {
content:'';
position:absolute;
background:#f15c5c;
height:40px;
left:0;
width:5px;
}
The reason your border wasn't working was because this is how borders are added to elements:
As a result, you will get a border that is skewed if the height of the element is 0.
I want to Create Box shadow as given below.
As per my study of Box shadow. It takes below parameters:
DIV {
box-shadow: <horizontal> <vertical> <blur> <color> [inset]
}
Please, Find the jsfiddle for this.
To create above examples, I need to use box shadow.
For example 1, I used below style:
box-shadow:0px 10px 22px 0px gray;
Here, I am getting lighter shadow on top, left and right side also (which I don't want)
In example 2, I used below style:
box-shadow:10px 10px 22px 0px gray inset;
I don't want inner shading to right and bottom part.
Is it possible to remove unnecessary shading in box-shadow ?
You can have a box shadow just on one side, on two sides, three sides, but in that case you should set the blur value to zero - see demo http://dabblet.com/gist/1579740
However, you can emulate the first kind of shadow by wrapping your div into another outer div of the same width, but slightly bigger height on which you set overflow: hidden;
If you don't need the background of your div to be semitransparent, then you could also emulate the second one using an absolutely positioned pseudo-element in order to obscure the bottom and right shadows.
DEMO http://dabblet.com/gist/3149980
HTML for first shadow:
<div class="outer">
<div class="shadow1"></div>
</div>
CSS for first shadow
div {
width: 100px;
height: 100px;
}
.outer {
padding-bottom: 35px;
overflow: hidden;
}
.shadow1 {
box-shadow: 0px 10px 22px 0px gray;
background: #f0f0f0;
}
HTML for second shadow
<div class="shadow2"></div>
CSS for second shadow
.shadow2 {
box-shadow:10px 10px 22px 0px gray inset;
position: relative;
background: #f0f0f0;
}
.shadow2:before {
top: 22px;
bottom:0;
left:22px;
right:0;
position: absolute;
background: #f0f0f0;
content:'';
}
You can do it with some extra markup (an extra div wrapping the element so that it hides the other shadows you don't want)
Or you could use the shadow spread property (the 4th number in the box-shadow declaration) to shrink the shadow down to hide the side parts of your shadow.
This creates a smaller shadow on the bottom, but it requires no extra HTML.
http://jsfiddle.net/hBMQm/2/
#b {
position:absolute;
width:100px;
height:100px;
top:200px;
left:200px;
background-color:#F0F0F0;
text-align:center;
box-shadow:20px 20px 22px 0px gray inset;
}
Now you have the inner shadow, but not on you right, or bottom as you asked for. Did i misunderstand you?
box-shadow takes one more parameter the spread
using following code i was able to achieve the desired effect
box-shadow: 0px 20px 22px -20px gray inset;
see here http://jsfiddle.net/hBMQm/3/
I want to be able to draw a border OUTSIDE of my Div! So if my div is say 20px by 20px, I want a 1px border outside of this (so in essence, I get a div 22x22px large).
I understand that I can just make the div 22x22 to start with, but for reasons I have, I need the borders to be on the outside.
CSS outline works, but I want only border-bottom or border-top thingy, so something like outline-bottom, which does not work, is what I want.
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks
I think you've got your understanding of the two properties off a little. Border affects the outside edge of the element, making the element different in size. Outline will not change the size or position of the element (takes up no space) and goes outside the border. From your description you want to use the border property.
Look at the simple example below in your browser:
<div style="height: 100px; width: 100px; background: black; color: white; outline: thick solid #00ff00">SOME TEXT HERE</div>
<div style="height: 100px; width: 100px; background: black; color: white; border-left: thick solid #00ff00">SOME TEXT HERE</div>
Notice how the border pushes the bottom div over, but the outline doesn't move the top div and the outline actually overlaps the bottom div.
You can read more about it here:
Border
Outline
Try the outline property CSS Outline
Outline will not interfere with widths and lenghts of the elements/divs!
Please click the link I provided at the bottom to see working demos of the the different ways you can make borders, and inner/inline borders, even ones that do not disrupt the dimensions of the element! No need to add extra divs every time, as mentioned in another answer!
You can also combine borders with outlines, and if you like, box-shadows (also shown via link)
<head>
<style type="text/css" ref="stylesheet">
div {
width:22px;
height:22px;
outline:1px solid black;
}
</style>
</head>
<div>
outlined
</div>
Usually by default, 'border:' puts the border on the outside of the width, measurement, adding to the overall dimensions, unless you use the 'inset' value:
div {border: inset solid 1px black};
But 'outline:' is an extra border outside of the border, and of course still adds extra width/length to the element.
Hope this helps
PS: I also was inspired to make this for you : Using borders, outlines, and box-shadows
IsisCode gives you a good solution. Another one is to position border div inside parent div. Check this example http://jsfiddle.net/A2tu9/
UPD: You can also use pseudo element :after (:before), in this case HTML will not be polluted with extra markup:
.my-div {
position: relative;
padding: 4px;
...
}
.my-div:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
top: -3px;
left: -3px;
bottom: -3px;
right: -3px;
border: 1px #888 solid;
}
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/A2tu9/191/
Why not simply using background-clip?
-webkit-background-clip: padding;
-moz-background-clip: padding;
background-clip: padding-box;
See:
http://caniuse.com/#search=background-clip
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/background-clip
https://css-tricks.com/almanac/properties/b/background-clip
I shared two solutions depending on your needs:
<style type="text/css" ref="stylesheet">
.border-inside-box {
border: 1px solid black;
}
.border-inside-box-v1 {
outline: 1px solid black; /* 'border-radius' not available */
}
.border-outside-box-v2 {
box-shadow: 0 0 0 1px black; /* 'border-style' not available (dashed, solid, etc) */
}
</style>
example: https://codepen.io/danieldd/pen/gObEYKj
Way late, but I just ran into a similar issue.
My solution was pseudo elements - no additional markup, and you get to draw the border without affecting the width.
Position the pseudo element absolutely (with the main positioned relatively) and whammo.
See below, JSFiddle here.
.hello {
position: relative;
/* Styling not important */
background: black;
color: white;
padding: 20px;
width: 200px;
height: 200px;
}
.hello::before {
content: "";
position: absolute;
display: block;
top: 0;
left: -5px;
right: -5px;
bottom: 0;
border-left: 5px solid red;
border-right: 5px solid red;
z-index: -1;
}
Put your div inside another div, apply the border to the outer div with n amount of padding/margin where n is the space you want between them.
I want to Create DIV based Flexible corners. as per shown in the Image.
This is Not regular rounded corner, but something more complicated. This is Something like challenge .
And Please Note that I want Image based rounded Corners, so please give answer as per requirments.
Thanks a Lot
Well, the easiest answer is: use CSS3:
#roundedCornerDiv {
-moz-border-radius: 1em; /* for mozilla-based browsers */
-webkit-border-radius: 1em; /* for webkit-based browsers */
border-radius: 1em; /* theoretically for *all* browsers
dependant on implementation of CSS3 */
border: 12px solid #ccc;
}
you should be able to do this with 9 explicitly sized and floated divs. the corner divs are fixed size and have background-url for the 4 corners and the side divs are repeat-y and top bottom divs have repeat-x
You should look into The Thrashbox approach for this.
You can use a series of spans and 4 images, one for each corner, to make a resizable rounded corner div. Like this:
div {
background: white url(topleft.gif) top left no-repeat;
}
div span {
display: block;
background: url(topright.gif) top right no-repeat;
}
div span span {
background: url(bottomright.gif) bottom right no-repeat;
}
div span span span {
padding: 2em;
height: 0; /* fixes a padding bug in IE */
background: url(bottomleft.gif) bottom left no-repeat;
}
div span span > span {
height: auto; /* sets the height back to auto for all other browsers */
}
And now for the HTML:
<div><span><span><span>Round corners!</span></span></span></div>
For an actual example and code please refer to this page for a working example and source code.
border-radius: 10px 10px 10px 10px;
first is the left-upper corner.
second is the right-upper corner.
third is the right-lower corner.
fourth is the lower-left corner.
you can use that basically in any tag where you want the round corners. just remember to specify the border like:
border: 2px solid black;
if you specify the border separately, eg:
border-left: 6px;
border-right: 6px;
border-top: 2px;
border-bottom: 2px;
you can get some awesome-looking stuff.
