Firstimer here. Sorry if myquestion is too stupid.
How can I change the label in :
<span class="fluid-thumbnail-grid-image-type">
XYZ
</span>
I want change XYZ to something else in a hosted application.
I have access only to add custom CSS to the head section.
Thanks in advance

CSS/HTML Solution:
If you are able to edit the html, and want to use only CSS, you may use the :before (or :after) selector:
.fluid-thumbnail-grid-image-type:before{
content:"ZYX"
}
<span class="fluid-thumbnail-grid-image-type"></span>
Javascript Solution: If you are able to add javascript I would recommend jQuery .html() like so:
$('.fluid-thumbnail-grid-image-type').html('ZYX');
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<span class="fluid-thumbnail-grid-image-type">XYZ</span>
Using only CSS Here's what you can do >>>DEMO Using CSS Pseudo-element :after and content
.fluid-thumbnail-grid-image-type {
visibility: hidden;
}
.fluid-thumbnail-grid-image-type:after {
content: 'ABC';
visibility: visible;
display: block;
}
<span class="fluid-thumbnail-grid-image-type">
XYZ
</span>

I have twelve <a href> links that lead to different categories. As a means of orientation for the user I would like to emphasise the very category (<a href>-button) that the user is in right now.
How can I achieve this in CSS? I read about selected and active, but I haven't been able to make it work yet.
This is one of the links/buttons:
<span class="category_item"></span><span class="category_description">Handy & Co.</span>
The corresponding CSS:
.category_item {
display:inline-block;
background:url(../img/category_item/ph.png) no-repeat;
width: 45px;
height: 45px;
margin-right: 11px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
.category_item:hover {
background:url(../img/category_item/hover.png);
}
.category_description {
position: absolute;
font-size: 11px;
color: #000;
margin-top: 43px;
margin-left: -62px;
z-index: 1;
opacity: 0;
}
Thank you in advance!
You can run some jquery code when you load the page that checks the link urls with the current page's url and setting a class on the links that match.
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/og4o1tdh/2/
something like this:
HTML:
<div id="categories">
<span class="category_description">Google</span>
<!-- jsfiddle code is apparently run on fiddle.jshell.net -->
<span class="category_description">JSFiddle</span>
</div>
JS:
$('#categories a').each(function (){
var link = $(this).attr('href');
if (window.location.href.indexOf(link) > -1) {
$(this).find('span').addClass('currentCategory');
}
});
CSS:
.currentCategory {
color: orange;
font-weight: bold;
}
To give a special class to an anchor when a user clicks you can use simple javascript and jQuery.
Give all the anchor's you want to be in the scope of this a class for instance:
HTML:
<a class="nav-link" href="http://www.google.com"> Google </a>
<a class="nav-link" href="http://www.yahoo.com"> Yahoo </a>
Javascript:
$(".nav-link").on("click", function() {
$(this).addClass("active");
});
To make sure you only have one anchor with "active" class I would do the following:
$(".nav-link").on("click", function() {
$(".nav-link").removeClass("active");
$(this).addClass("active")
});
There is no built-in way of knowing which link is the current one. The easiest way may be to use javascript to check the current URL by document.URL and add a CSS class to the link with an equal href attribute. Then, you may style this class in CSS.
CSS doesn't know what page you are on.
To do this you will have to change your HTML markup, for example: to add:
<a class="current-page" href="index.php?category=handy&location=&sort=" ...
on the relevant link which you can use to 'hook' an new CSS style onto:
.current-page { color: red; }
The alternative is to use Javascript to 'read' the URL and apply a style.
You could...
Simply add a unique classname to the body tag or (some element that wraps around the anchor tags). And then style your links accordingly. This option is quite easy if you have access to change the HTML in your pages:
HTML
<body class="category_handy">
...
<a href="..." class="category_handy">
<span class="category_item"></span>
<span class="category_description">Handy & Co.</span>
</a>
....
</body>
CSS
body.category_handy a.category_handy {
color:red;
}
body.category_dandy a.category_dandy {
color:yellow;
}
body.category_something a.category_something {
color: blue;
}
If you don't have access to directly edit each page, you may have to dynamically check the URL, and then add a classname (like "current") to the anchor tag who's href attribute matches.
Either way, the solution will not involve "css only".
I need to display ex: $300.00, but I need the dollar sign to be displayed smaller than the number so its going to look like a trademark, but not that small.
Is there a CSS function that does that?
Thank you in advance.
Could be something like this?
HTML:
<span class="dollar">300.00</span>
CSS:
.dollar:before {
content: '$';
font-size: somethingSmaller;
}
See this fiddle and let me know if this helps.
But only if not empty!
.currency:not(:empty):before {
top: 0;
content: "$";
}
<span class="currency">10.5</span><br />
<span class="currency"></span><br />
<span class="currency">42</span><br />
Use a <span> element to style in-line text:
HTML:
<span class="currency">$</span>
<span class="price">300</span>
CSS:
.currency{
font-size:.5em;
vertical-align:text-top; /* resembling more the tm symbol you mentioned */
}
A fiddle for convenience...
The difference from lante's answer is that this will work in much older browsers as well. For more info, see the support for :before and :after pseudo elements.
Use the :before pseudo selector
.amount:before {
content: "$";
font-size:.9em;
}
A very simple way to do this would be :
HTML :
<div class="text">
<span class="dollar">$</span>300
</div>
CSS :
.text {
font-size: 18px;
}
.dollar {
font-size:15px;
}
See here->http://jsfiddle.net/xMKsH/
However, if you understand pseudo-selectors well, you would be better off using this:
HTML:
<div class="text">300</div>
CSS:
.text {
font-size: 18px;
}
.dollar:before {
content:'$';
font-size:15px;
}
See here->http://jsfiddle.net/xMKsH/1/
Hope this helps!!
If you really must do this, use
<small>$</small>300.00
and, if desired, set the size of small in CSS, e.g.
small { font-size: 75% }
There is a good example about using css nth-of-type selector http://codepen.io/mnafricano/pen/ltKvy, but when I run the example myself, I can't make it work. Can somebody point out what goes wrong in using the nth-of-type
The html is
<h1 class='logo'>Google</h1>
, and css is
h1.logo span:nth-of-type(1){
color:#0089ab;
}
h1.logo span:nth-of-type(2){
color:#d91821;
}
h1.logo span:nth-of-type(3){
color:#ffac05;
}
h1.logo span:nth-of-type(4){
color:#0089ab;
}
h1.logo span:nth-of-type(5){
color:#88c406;
}
h1.logo span:nth-of-type(6){
color:#d91821;
}
The CSS here works, the trick is that there is some Javascript on that page which adds a <span> wrapper around each of the letters in "Google".
The CSS specifically is looking for the nth span inside of the h1 with class "logo".
If you directly take the HTML and CSS, but not the JS the CSS rules will never match.
If you inspect the h1, you'll see the following:
<h1 class="logo">
<span class="char1">G</span>
<span class="char2">o</span>
<span class="char3">o</span>
<span class="char4">g</span>
<span class="char5">l</span>
<span class="char6">e</span>
</h1>
If you try that HTML instead, it should work as you expect.
Here's a JSFiddle that may help.
I'm using a <span class="image"> with a background:
.image {
background-image: url("image.jpg")
}
How can I also add a hint on this image when people put the mouse over it?
Is there a CSS way to achieve this?
Use the HTML title attribute:
<span class="image" title="This is a hint.">
You can do something with :after content:
.image:hover:after {
content:"This is a hint";
}
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/fXuSB/
However, this content is probably better off in the HTML (and your image actually might be as well). You can use the title attribute for a simple default tooltip, or perhaps something like this:
<span class="image">
<span class="hint">This is a hint</span>
</span>
.image .hint {
display:none;
}
.image:hover .hint {
display:block;
}

I am pretty new to CSS, I have a simple case like the above. I would like to make the "title" and "some url" clickable but want to make description as non-clickable. Is there any way to do that by applying some CSS on the span so that whatever inside that span, it is not clickable.
My constraint is that, I do not want to change the structure of the div, instead just applying css can we make a span which is inside an anchor tag, not clickable ?
Actually, you can achieve this via CSS. There's an almost unknown css rule named pointer-events. The a element will still be clickable but your description span won't.
a span.description {
pointer-events: none;
}
there are other values like: all, stroke, painted, etc.
ref: http://robertnyman.com/2010/03/22/css-pointer-events-to-allow-clicks-on-underlying-elements/
UPDATE: As of 2016, all browsers now accept it: http://caniuse.com/#search=pointer-events
UPDATE: As of 2022, browsers behavior may have changed, another option can be:
a {
pointer-events: none;
}
a span:not(.description) {
pointer-events: initial;
}
Not with CSS. You could do it with JavaScript easily, though, by canceling the default event handling for those elements. In jQuery:
$('a span:nth-child(2)').click(function(event) { event.preventDefault(); });
CSS is used for applying styling i.e. the visual aspects of an interface.
That clicking an anchor element causes an action to be performed is a behavioural aspect of an interface, not a stylistic aspect.
You cannot achieve what you want using only CSS.
JavaScript is used for applying behaviours to an interface. You can use JavaScript to modify the behaviour of a link.
In response to piemesons rant against jQuery, a Vanilla JavaScript(TM) solution (tested on FF and IE):
Put this in a script tag after your markup is loaded (right before the close of the body tag) and you'll get a similar effect to the jQuery example.
a = document.getElementsByTagName('a');
for (var i = 0; i < a.length;i++) {
a[i].getElementsByTagName('span')[1].onclick = function() { return false;};
}
This will disable the click on every 2nd span inside of an a tag.
You could also check the innerHTML of each span for "description", or set an attribute or class and check that.
This is the simplest way I would have done it. Without bordering about CSS or javascript :
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<p>
<a href="http://www.google.com">
<span>title<br></span>
</a>
<span>description<br></span>
<a href="http://www.google.com">
<span>some url</span>
</a>
</p>
</div>
</body>
</html>
You can replace the tag with anything you want.
Yes you can....
you can place something on top of the link element.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Yes you CAN</title>
<style type="text/css">
ul{
width: 500px;
border: 5px solid black;
}
.product-type-simple {
position: relative;
height: 150px;
width: 150px;
}
.product-type-simple:before{
position: absolute;
height: 100% ;
width: 100% ;
content: '';
background: green;//for debugging purposes , remove this if you want to see whats behind
z-index: 999999999999;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<ul>
<li class='product-type-simple'>
<a href="/link1">
<img src="http://placehold.it/150x150">
</a>
</li>
<li class='product-type-simple'>
<a href="/link2">
<img src="http://placehold.it/150x150">
</a>
</li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
the magic sauce happens at product-type-simple:before class
Whats happening here is that for each element that has class of product-type-simple you create something that has the width and height equal to that of the product-type-simple , then you increase its z-index to make sure it will place it self on top of the content of product-type-simple. You can toggle the background color if you want to see whats going on.
here is an example of the code
https://jsfiddle.net/92qky63j/
CSS relates to visual styling and not behaviour, so the answer is no really.
You could however either use javascript to modify the behaviour or change the styling of the span in question so that it doesn't have the pointy finger, underline, etc. Styling it like that will still leave it clickable.
Even better, change your markup so that it reflects what you want it to do.
Using CSS you cannot, CSS will only change the appearance of the span. However you can do it without changing the structure of the div by adding an onclick handler to the span:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<a href="http://www.google.com">
<span>title<br></span>
<span onclick='return false;'>description<br></span>
<span>some url</span>
</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>
You can then style it so that it looks un-clickable too:
<html>
<head>
<style type='text/css'>
a span.unclickable { text-decoration: none; }
a span.unclickable:hover { cursor: default; }
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div>
<a href="http://www.google.com">
<span>title<br></span>
<span class='unclickable' onclick='return false;'>description<br></span>
<span>some url</span>
</a>
</div>
</body>
</html>
