Trouble creating headers with horizontal line going across - css

I want to create title that have an horizontal line going through them with the Title text appearing above the line, even though I believe I have correctly used the z-index rule it still does not work, this is the css I am using;
.heading {
border-bottom: 2px solid #222222!important;
text-align: center;
z-index: -1;
}
#sidebar .widget h3, #sidebar .widget .heading h3 {
color: #333333;
text-align: center;
z-index: 10;
margin-bottom: -8px;
position: relative;
}
The url is: http://crossfitblackboard.com/

z-index
works only if you are using a position
so you need also set the .heading to position: relative

Create a duplicate of the heading and line-through it.
HTML:
<h1 class="shadow">Your Awesome Heading</h1>
<h1>Your Awesome Heading</h1>
CSS:
h1{
position: absolute;
}
.shadow{
color: lightgrey;
text-decoration: line-through;
}
Here's the Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/39rwmjt6/1/

Let's keep the markup as simple as possible; We can do this with one element for your heading and the pseudo element :before with z-index: -1;.
Have an example!
HTML
<h1>Heading</h1>
CSS
h1 {
position: relative;
text-align: center;
font-size: 1em;
}
h1:before {
position: absolute;
content: '';
height: 2px;
background: #F00;
display: block;
width: 100%;
top: 0.6em;
z-index: -1;
}

How to add multiple CSS attributes to a tag simultaneously?

I'm trying to modify my WordPress theme the way I want through the Additional CSS part in Appearance>Customize.
I want all my h1 tags in entry-content class to be like this:
so I used this code:
.entry-content h1 {
background-color: #cfbc00;
display: inline;
background-color:#000000;
}
I want the whole block to be colored #cfbc00 and the background of the text itself to be black. But the browser does not apply these simultaneously to my tag and it applies only one of the attributes. What should I do?
If you don't have access to the HTML code, then here is a CSS workaround:
.entry-content
{
position: relative;
}
.entry-content h1::before
{
content: "";
display: block;
position: absolute;
width: 100%;
background-color: #cfbc00;
height: 40px;
z-index: -1;
}
.entry-content h1 {
display: inline;
background-color: #000000ad; /* Sets transparency according to sample image */
top: 0;
/* Line height to maintain the height of the :before element */
line-height: 40px;
color: #fff;
font-size: 35px;
padding: 5px;
}
<div class="entry-content">
<h1>Test title</h1>
</div>

Preventing hover on pseudo element - but pointer-events: none; doesn't do it

I have a few links on one line next to each other, and I would like to have dividing dashes between them. I chose to make this happen with the use of the ::before pseudo element, and it works nicely.
However, hovering over the dividers also triggers the hover over the element I have the ::before on.
This is a fiddle showing the issue. If you hover over the dashes, the underline appears under the a.
In my search as to how to prevent this from happening, I ran into this stackoverflow question. Together with the documentation on developer.mozilla.org and the caniusethis page on the pointer-events property I was sure this would fix it. But it didn't.
What am I missing here?
You need to make changes in css
.wrap a::before {
content: '----';
padding: 0 15px;
position: absolute;
left: -50px;
pointer-events: none;
}
.wrap a {
text-decoration: none;
position: relative;
margin-left: 50px;
display: inline-block;
}
You will need to use position:absolute for the ---- to make it out of the <a> flow and also position:relative to the parent <a> element.
Stack Snippet
.wrap a {
text-decoration: none;
margin: 0 30px;
position: relative;
}
.wrap p {
margin: 0;
}
.wrap {
font-family: sans-serif;
border: 1px solid green;
padding: 5px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
.wrap a:nth-of-type(1) {
margin-left: 50px;
}
.wrap a::before {
content: '----';
position: absolute;
pointer-events: none;
left: -30px;
transform: translateX(-50%);
}
.wrap a:hover {
text-decoration: underline;
}
<div class="wrap">
<p>These links do not have the pointer-events: none; property</p>
<br>
link text one
link text two
link text three
</div>
<div class="wrap">
<p>These do have pointer-events: none; yet their behaviour is the same as with the block above.</p>
<br>
link text one
link text two
link text three
</div>

Display inline block the right way to achieve this

I have the following CSS lines:
.liquid {
display: inline-block;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
background: #ff8125;
margin-right: 15px;
}
<h2 class="liquid">Liquid</h2>
It should look like this:
http://imgur.com/B9vblUP
But instead looks like this:
http://imgur.com/8RQTkcO
What am i doing wrong here and how to get it exactly like the first pic?
I tried overflow hidden but that only shows Liquid in 25x25 on the block and the rest is not showing.
Any help is much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Majin Buu
I think you should create another element for the orange square instead of editing the class of the h2 element because the background attribute it will be applied on that element, so I would make something like:
<div class="liquid"></div>
<h2>Liquid</h2>
.liquid {
float: left;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
background: #ff8125;
margin-right: 15px;
}
To have the square floating to the left of the element.
Check out CSS position!
.liquid {
display: inline-block;
position: absolute;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
background: #ff8125;
}
h2 {
position: relative;
margin-left: 30px;
}
<div class="liquid"></div><h2>Liquid</h2>
Use html like this
<div class="bg_white">
<span class="liquid"> </span><h2>Liquid</h2>
</div>
CSS
.bg_white{background:white; padding:5px; width:auto; float:left;}
.liquid {
display: inline-block;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
background: #ff8125;
margin-right: 15px;
float:left;
font-size:18px;
}
.bg_white h2{float:left; margin:0px;}
Pseudo element is better for this solution:
h2 {
background: #eee;
padding: 5px;
display:inline-block;
}
.liquid::before {
content:'';
display: inline-block;
vertical-align: middle;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
background: #ff8125;
margin-right: 15px;
}
<h2 class="liquid">Liquid</h2>
You are styling the font part of the wanted result itself. You should either add an element for the orange square or use a pseudo element. This will get you in the right direction.
.liquid {
line-height: 1;
}
.liquid:before {
background: #ff8125;
content: ''; /* important for pseudo elements */
display: inline-block;
height: .9em;
margin-right: .45em;
position: relative;
top: .1em;
width: .9em;
}
<h2 class="liquid">Liquid</h2>
you can use below CSS for this if text is small and always in one line.
.liquid {
display: inline-block;
padding-left: 10px;
border-left: 25px solid #ff8125;
margin-right: 15px;
font: 25px/25px Arial;
font-weight: bold;
}
<h2 class="liquid">Liquid</h2>

Why one element's CSS negative margin takes out the other element from floated box

This is piece of bigger project but what happens is that use of negative margin on one element (.pag) takes the other element (#ar_wr_in) out from floated box (#ar_wr)?
It works fine in Firefox but does not in Chrome or IE.
HTML:
<body>
<div id="ar_wr">
<div class="pag">pagination</div>
<div id="ar_wr_in">
<section class="ar">isdjs fjs odifj</section>
</div>
</div>
</body>
CSS:
body {
color: #f00;
background: #191919;
font-family: LucidaGrande, Helvetica, Arial, sans;
}
section {
display: block;
float: left;
}
section {
margin: 0px;
}
#ar_wr {
width: 59%;
padding: 1%;
background: #ffddff;
border-radius: 5px;
margin-right: 1.5%;
}
#ar_wr {
float: left;
margin-top: 80px;
}
#ar_wr_in {
width 100%;
float: left;
margin-top: 17px;
}
.pag {
font-size: 12px;
margin-top: -77px;
/* background: #ddffff; */
position: relative;
}
.ar {
width: 100%;
margin-bottom: 40px;
position: relative;
background: #ddffff;
}
Here is JSFiddle
Is there some fix or hack for this to make it look as in Firefox?
Thank you
If you make your pagination element have absolute positioning then it can happily sit outside it's parent without affecting other non-absolute elements that come after it:
.pag {
font-size: 12px;
margin-top: -77px;
/* background: #ddffff; */
position: absolute;
}
Strange that Firefox treats it differently, but I would actually expect the result that you see in Chrome from using relative positioning like that.

5 divs in one row, can't align them in one line

I have 2 questions based on the linked(or above) code.
The 5 container div's width was set as:
.itemnumber 6%, .userprofile 14%, .nameandcredit 45%, .ranktitle 15%, .usercredit 20%. So in total they are 100%. But as you see, the last one .usercredit is not in the same line and there're margins between each div, which is not what I want.
for the .username, I have set overflow:hidden, but as you see, when there's a large string, the .username was totally disappeared. If there're spaces in the string, it will only hide the overflow part and show the front part. I want to know what's the problem?
I know it's a little bit messed up of a lot code here. But my question is as listed as above. Thanks in advance for any kind suggestion.
For the spacing, you have two problems:
Implicit spaces between inline-block elements, and
Defining widths for elements with padding.
Regarding username overflow, you have one issue:
Default word wrapping behavior is to wrap the whole word to the next line. You need to change that behavior.
Let's take a look at each of them:
Implicit Spaces
The problem is that your divs have a display: inline-block; style. Elements displayed as an inline-block have any white-space between them converted to a single space.
See the "Fighting the Space Between Inline Block Elements" article on CSS Tricks for more information on how to overcome this.
One fix, for instance, is to have the li element that is wrapping the divs to have a 0 font-size, and reset a non-zero font size to its children, e.g. in your CSS:
.font-size-0 {
font-size: 0;
}
.font-size-0 > * {
font-size: 12px;
}
Any of the links outlined in the link above would work; for example, removing spaces and newlines between your closing tag and opening tag would do the same thing, without forcing you to set and reset the font-size.
Widths for elements with padding
In CSS, a width is defined by default for an element to include only its content area (box-sizing: content-box; by default) and not the padding. Set the box-sizing to border-box and you'll be all set.
E.g.
.font-size-0 > div {
box-sizing: border-size;
}
Properly wrapping a single word without spaces
See this StackOverflow answer to see how to address the issue. You will basically need to add this to your .username rule:
.username {
...
word-wrap:break-word;
}
