I want to create a partial circular border around an element using pure css. I've been able to achieve the effect to a certain extent in this: http://jsfiddle.net/5MZMj/202/
However, this removes 25% or the border, How do I remove just 5% or say 20% ?
Also, how do I rotate the border (without rotating the content inside)?
Code in jsfiddle:
HTML:
<div class="one">
<div class="two">4.5</div>
</div>
CSS:
.two {
font-size: 24px;
display:inline;
padding-bottom:5px;
}
.one {
padding: 10px;
border: 1px solid green;
border-radius: 25px;
border-top-color: transparent;
width:30px;
margin-left: 10px;
}
Edit: image to give an idea of the effect I'm trying to achieve: http://imgur.com/JU78ICT
Edit2: sorry, I just realized I had linked the wrong jsfiddle, correct one is: http://jsfiddle.net/5MZMj/202/
I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but a simple hack is to put the upper right circle behind your main div:
#f {
z-index: -1;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/5MZMj/199/
Partially solved using psuedo elements, see: http://jsfiddle.net/5MZMj/205/
:after {
display: inline-block;
content: "";
border-left: 10px solid transparent;
border-top: 25px solid #fff;
border-right: 10px solid transparent;
border-top-color: #fff;
position: absolute;
margin-top:-42px;
margin-left: -5px;
}
Editing margin-top, margin-left and border-right changes the amount of arc to be removed.
[There ought to be a better way though, someway in which editing a single variable changes the amout of arc to be removed]
I didn't get you all, but may be this is the answer.
#f
{
right:-93px;
}

You can specify the radius for each corner if that what you mean:
border-radius: 5px 10px 15px 20px;
Starting with the top-left corner and going clockwise.
If you want to take less of a chunk out of the corner, you need to adjust the positioning of the circle.

#f {
right: -85px;
top: -85px;
}

I want to ask how can i create a css arrow triangle with smooth sides i.e. no cut in the side of arrow without using any image? I have already tried the tutorial -
[http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/css-triangle/][1]
.arrow_up
{
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 10px solid transparent;
border-right: 10px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 10px solid black;
position:absolute;
top:75px;
left:250px;
}
<div class="arrow_up"></div>
UPDATE
Sorry, the issue was found only in some older version of Firefox.
You need to use a pseudo element and rotate it:
DEMO
CSS:
.arrow_up
{
width: 100px;
height: 50px;
position:absolute;
top:150px;
left:250px;
overflow:hidden;/* hide part of the pseudo overflowing*/
}
.arrow_up:before {
content:'';
position:absolute;
width:100%;
padding-top:100%;/* it will draw a square , change this value for other degrees angles*/
transform:rotate(45deg);/* we'll see a corner */
background:black;
top:20px;/* tune this according to size of parent or size to be seen */
}
Do not forget to add vendor-prefix or use a script that adds them automaticly.
The use o a pseudo element allows to add content in the box : ie. http://codepen.io/gc-nomade/pen/gdoGA
The only thing I can possibly think of is that you have another element on the page which is slightly overlapping onto the arrow as when tested it works fine:
http://jsfiddle.net/Hive7/qLAg4/
.arrow_up {
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-left: 50px solid transparent;
border-right: 50px solid transparent;
border-bottom: 50px solid black;
position: absolute;
top: 75px;
left: 250px;
}
It could be something to do with your browser as well though
I am trying to make a CSS :after triangle the usual way. But it does not look as a triangle at all, please see http://jsfiddle.net/lborgman/eX3HL/:
/* triangle after */
#st:after {
position: relative;
margin-left: 10px;
content:"";
border-top:4px solid transparent;
border-bottom:4px solid transparent;
border-left:4px solid black;
}
#st {
line-height: 2em;
}
If I change "position:relative" to "position:absolute" the triangle will become a triangle. But that does not work where I want it (because it is on a float div).
What can I do?
Add display:inline-block to fix the triangle
#st:after {
position: relative;
margin-left: 10px;
content:"";
border-top:4px solid transparent;
border-bottom:4px solid transparent;
border-left:4px solid black;
display: inline-block;
}
JS Fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/eX3HL/2/
It's a phenomenon that has to do with the native display of an object. The native display property of span is inline. Inline elements behave like plain text, while block elements behave more like images.
In your example when you do not override the default property of the span your element behaves like text and thus has also an font-size shadow-property which is set to inherit. It's an unexpected behavior since the shadow-properties are not visible to developers directly, so causing a lot of unclarities. You don't have to just believe my words, here is a proof: http://jsfiddle.net/eX3HL/5/
Okay so I am currently using this for my <a> tags in HTML, and here is my css for it
#button {
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
border-bottom-width: 5px;
width: auto;
padding-left: 2px;
padding-right: 2px;
text-decoration:none;
color: gray;
}
#button:hover {
color: black;
}
But sadly the buttons are bigger then a standard line and just overlap eachother, for example:
Here is some text [button]
here is some more text [button]
Where the [button]s is beneath/ontop of the other it overlaps in the browser, (if that makes sense)
Here is a screenshot:
How can I make it so it creates a kind of area around it where it cant overlap and will push other elements outwards or so, margin seems to not work (top and bottom does nothing) and padding seems to make the 1px border bigger in height, thanks!
Add
display:inline-block;
to your button selector, e.g.:
#button {
border-style: solid;
border-width: 1px;
border-bottom-width: 5px;
width: auto;
padding-left: 2px;
padding-right: 2px;
text-decoration:none;
color: gray;
display:inline-block;
}
As an aside, i'd recommend that button is a class rather than an id, because you shouldn't really have multiple elements with the same id on the same page.
The distance between the lines in your example is too short to display a Button-Text surrounded by border with space that fits into that line.
So I sugesst to increase the line-height of the default Text.
Here an example: JSFiddle-Example
Is it possible to create a border like the flowing image with css? Any hints will be appreciated
#sidebar h4, #sidebar-alt h4 {
background:url('images/widget-title-bg.png');
color: #333333;
font-size: 22px;
font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
font-weight: normal;
margin: 0 0 10px 0;
padding: 7px 0px 11px 0px;
}
EDIT: Made some changes according to your comments. Try:
<h1 id="progress">
<i></i>Recent Posts
</h1>
#progress {
display: block;
max-width: 200px;
min-width: 150px;
position: relative;
margin: 50px auto 0;
padding: 0 3px;
border-bottom: 10px solid #ECECEC;
font: bold 26px 'Dancing Script', cursive;
}
#progress i {
display: block;
position: absolute;
width: .8em;
height: 10px;
left: 0;
bottom: -10px;
background-color: #4287F4;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/userdude/z45QJ/4/
I'm not a big fan of the position manipulation, but all browsers should support and display this nearly identically, the only possible problem being the font's displa may be slightly differently in different browsers. However, IE7-9 should interpret everything else just fine.
Too bad the whole wuuurld isn't on WebKit:
<div id="progress"></div>
#progress {
width: 300px;
height: 10px;
border: none;
background-color: #ECECEC;
border-left: solid #4287F4;
box-shadow:inset 2px 0 white;
-webkit-animation: slide 10s linear infinite;
}
#-webkit-keyframes slide {
from {
border-left-width: 0;
width: 300px;
} to {
border-left-width: 300px;
width: 0;
}
}
http://jsfiddle.net/userdude/z45QJ/1
It could be adjusted to go both ways. However, it only works on WebKit browsers (Chrome, Safari [?]). If that's ok, let me know and I'll add the return trip.
There are four ways to do it. I demonstrate four ways in this JSFiddle, and here are some explanations.
If you're not sure, just use Method B.
Method A
Method A has the advantage that it's the most compatible but the disadvantage that it requires extra HTML. Basically, you're giving an outer div the blue border and an inner div the white border. Your HTML will look something like this:
<div class="methodA">
<div class="container">
Method A
</div>
</div>
Your CSS will look like this:
.methodA {
border-left: 10px solid blue;
}
.methodA .container {
height: 100%;
border-left: 10px solid white;
}
Method B
Method B has the advantage that there's no extra HTML, but the disadvantage is that it won't work in IE before version 9.
.methodB {
border-left: 10px solid blue;
-webkit-box-shadow: inset 10px 0 white;
-moz-box-shadow: inset 10px 0 white;
box-shadow: inset 10px 0 white;
}
You can mitigate IE's compatibility issues using CSS3 PIE, which makes box shadows behave in Internet Explorer (along with other CSS3 features).
Methods C and D
This JSFiddle shows two other methods, which I won't describe in as much detail, but...
Method C makes the blue border a shadow. As a result, it can "cover" other elements and it also changes the size of the element. I don't love this solution, but it might work for you. It also suffers the compatibility issues of Method B.
Method D puts two divs inside of the element: one for the blue border and one for the right border.
it is not really complicate and no extra HTML is needed.
h4:after {
display:block;
content: '';
height:4px;
width: 1px;
border:0px solid #ececec;
border-left-width: 10px;
border-left-color:#4287F4;
border-right-width: 90px;
}

See if it helps. This tells you about the application of gradient. See how it is done.
Also why not use directly the images that you want as the border.
Check out for "Gradient" in Css. This might answer your question.
I studied some usage of "canvas" tag in HTML5. That is preety much informative about gradient specification and is also more readable than the traditionl HTML4. So for this question i also want to request the questioner to look at the "canvas" tag in HTML5. check the link below.

Second link is more awesome. Cheers.:)
I have inherited a legacy app for a rewrite and have run across a curious problem. There is tabular data displayed on the page where the title of the table is within a trapezoidal shape that resembles a manila envelope tab. At the bottom of such tables, there is usually a button row that is the same shape as the table title but rotated 180°. Currently, this effect is being pulled off by using a square image with a white triangle in one half on a transparent background as a background image in the corner of a rectangular block to achieve the look of a trapezoid. However, this technique is prone to flickering when the page is refreshed.
As an exercise, I have tried to see if I can replace this with a pure CSS technique. I found this link to different shapes in CSS and have emulated the trapezoid to look as I need. I am able to place the table title text within a trapezoid correctly. However, when I need the look of the 180° rotated trapezoid, I am unable to get the text to place within the shape. My code is included below and here is a jsFiddle showing what I have accomplished so far. I understand that the text shows below the rotated trapezoid because the height is set to 0 and I'm using border-top to build the shape. Is there anything I can do to get this to work correctly?
Please keep in mind that I need this to display in IE8 (and possibly also IE8 in compatibility mode -- IE7). Also, I'd like to keep additional HTML elements to a minimum because I want to keep this as semantic as possible. I know I can place a span inside the div and absolutely position that span so that it displays the text within the shape, but when I do that I have to manually set a width on the trapezoid and when the width can vary from button row to button row, I'd rather not go down that path.
Thanks.
HTML:
<div class="trap">Title Text</div>
<div class="trap180">Button Row</div>
CSS:
.trap {
color: black;
font: normal bold 13px Arial;
border-bottom: 27px solid #F00;
border-right: 27px solid transparent;
height: 0px;
float: left;
line-height: 27px;
padding: 0 4px;
}
.trap180 {
clear: both;
color: black;
font: normal bold 13px Arial;
border-top: 27px solid #F00;
border-left: 27px solid transparent;
height: 0px;
float: right;
margin: 20px 0 0 0;
line-height: 27px;
padding: 0px 4px 0;
}
It's possible with pseudo-elements. But I don't have access to those old browsers to test.
.trap, .trap180 {
color: black;
font: normal bold 13px Arial;
float: left;
line-height: 30px;
height: 30px;
padding: 0 4px;
background: salmon;
position: relative;
}
.trap180 {
float: right;
margin: 20px 0 0 0;
}
.trap:after,.trap180:after {
content: '';
position: absolute;
height: 0px;
width: 40px;
top: 0;
}
.trap:after {
right: -30px;
border-bottom: 30px solid salmon;
border-right: 30px solid transparent;
z-index: -10;
}
.trap180:after {
left: -30px;
border-top: 30px solid salmon;
border-left: 30px solid transparent;
z-index: -10;
}
Demo
Frankly, if you need to still support IE7, I would just use images or allow a little graceful degradation.
