remove borders around html input - css

I want to create a search function for my web app.
here are the looks on FF & IE, it is ok without strange border
Firefox
IE
and here are the look on Chrome & Safari, it has strange border around the input element
Chrome
Safari
Here is my html & css code
<input type="search" id="generic_search" onkeypress="return runScript(event)" />
<input type="button" id="generic_search_button" />
the border:0 has been applied to all elements
#generic_search
{
font-size: 14px;
width: 250px;
height: 25px;
float: left;
padding-left: 5px;
padding-right: 5px;
margin-top: 7px;
}
#generic_search_button
{
float: left;
width: 25px;
height: 25px;
margin-top: 7px;
cursor: pointer;
background-color: White;
background-image: url(/Images/search.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center center;
}
How to remove that border?

border: 0 should be enough, but if it isn't, perhaps the button's browser-default styling in interfering. Have you tried setting appearance to none (e.g. -webkit-appearance: none)

It's simple
input {border:0;outline:0;}
input:focus {outline:none!important;}

border-width:0px;
border:none;
I have used this, and in most of the browsers (Chrome, Safari, FF, IE, etc), it worked fine for me 🙂

In my case I am using a CSS framework which adds box-shadow, so I had to also add
box-shadow: none;
So the complete snippet is:
border: none;
border-width: 0;
box-shadow: none;

I use this css code to remove focus input border some times. Hope will help you -:
input:focus, textarea:focus, select:focus{
outline: none;
}

your code is look like this jsfiddle.net/NTkGZ/
try
border:none;

Try this
#generic_search_button
{
float: left;
width: 24px; /*new width*/
height: 24px; /*new width*/
border: none !important; /* no border and override any inline styles*/
margin-top: 7px;
cursor: pointer;
background-color: White;
background-image: url(/Images/search.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center center;
}
I think the image size might be wrong

Try the following code:
.yourClassName{
border: 0;
outline: none;
}

use this i hope this help ful to you...
border:none !important;
background-color:transparent;
try this
<div id="generic_search"><input type="search" onkeypress="return runScript(event)" /></div>
<button type="button" id="generic_search_button" /></button>

How to Fix Text in button flicker (move to down) when click into button on IE, Firefox?

I have this code:
.button {
height: 50px;
width: 160px;
font-size: 16px;
background: #eee;
border-radius: 5px;
border: none;
}
<button type="button" class="button">Submit</button>
When I click into this button (button focus, active), the text will flicker (move to down a few point) on IE, Firefox browsers. How to fix it with CSS? Hope you help me. Thanks
Demo: http://jsfiddle.net/WorkWe/ht6pvoqz/1/
Wrap your text in span and give it position: absolute and it won't flick anymore!
<button type="button" class="button"><span>Submit</span></button>
.button {
height: 50px;
width: 160px;
background: #eee;
border-radius: 5px;
border: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
position: relative;
}
span {
position: absolute;
top: 5px;
left: 5px;
}
Some sort of mini-reset does the job on FF, but using extra span inside the button resolves issue on IE. Looks like we need to start considering usage of "a" tags instead of buttons:
HTML:
<button name="button" class="button"><span>Submit</span></button>
CSS:
.button {
height: 50px;
width: 160px;
font-size: 16px;
background: #eee;
border-radius: 5px;
border: none;
}
button:active,
button:focus,
button:hover {
margin:0;
padding:0;
}
JSFiddle for that.
Hope this helps
UPDATE: There is a way of dealing with IE issue - based on this SO answer (#alicarn answer), but problem with this method is it creates opposite flickering on chrome. So I guess you need to pick up your poison in this case.
This is default behavior of IE. This can't be fixed I think.
Instead of using button tag, I suggest to use anchor tag.

Css for .FileUpload button

I would like to apply this css on my .FileUpload button , but It only works on IE and not on Chrome and I still don't know what is wrong with it. Someone as got an idea ?
Thanks for helping

AFAIK it is not possible to style an <input type="file">, for all browsers. But you could replace the upload-field with javascript and the replacement can by styled as much as you want.
You'll get an example of such a replacement script in this blog entry.
You can try using jquery instead, this would be cross browser compatable then, more info here > http://jqueryui.com/demos/button/#default
either that or there are several examples here on different methods of achieving what you want http://speckyboy.com/2010/05/26/20-awesome-jquery-enhanced-css-button-techniques/

CSS - image sprite :active not working ie

Here is my code, which works perfectly in all but ie! The active simply does not fire
a.Button span {
background: transparent url('images/form_sprite.png') no-repeat 0 0;
display: block;
height:45px;
line-height: 30px;
padding: 7px 0 5px 20px;
color: #fff;
background-position: 0 -44px;
}
a.Button {
background: transparent url('images/form_sprite.png') no-repeat top right;
display: block;
float: left;
height: 45px;
margin-right: 6px;
padding-right: 27px;
text-decoration: none;
font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
font-size:12px;
font-weight:bold;
}
a.Button:hover span {
background-position: 0 -136px;
}
a.Button:hover {
background-position: right -90px;
}
a.Button:active span {
background-position: 0 -225px;
}
a.Button:active {
background-position: right -181px;
}
This is the html:
<div class="clearbutton"> <a class="Button" href="#"><span>Button text</span></a> </div>
Any ideas please?
try changing a.Button:active to a.Button span:active in your css. That seems to be firing the :active css and still works in chrome for me.
Yep, the :active psuedo-class only fires in IE when the user is clicking directly on that object. In this case, the link. If you're clicking on a child object (the span), the link's active event won't fire.
You can, as Aninemity said, apply the style to span:active (the proper way to do this). But in IE6/7, :active fires only for links. If you need IE6/7 support, you'll have to find some way to get rid of the span.

Disappearing submit button in IE7

Greetings. I'm having troubles with the following legacy code. It's fine in everything except IE7, where the submit button disappears. Space is still left for it on the page, but it doesn't show. I've tried various ways of forcing hasLayout, but without success. Any suggestions?
XHTML (XHTML 1.0 Strict DOCTYPE):
<div id="headerFunctionality" class="clearfix">
<div id="headerSearch" class="clearfix">
<form action="http://foo.com" method="GET">
<label for="q">Search</label>
<input id="q" name="q" type="text" class="text" />
<input type="submit" id="btn_search" value="Search">
</form>
</div>
</div>
CSS:
#headerFunctionality {
float: right;
display: inline;
margin: 24px 14px 25px 0;
}
#headerSearch{
float: left;
margin-left: 20px;
width: auto;
}
#headerSearch label{
position: absolute;
top: -5em;
color: #FFF;
}
#headerSearch input.text{
width: 133px;
height: 18px;
border: 1px solid #999;
font-size: 0.69em;
padding: 2px 3px 0;
margin: 0 6px 0 0;
float: left;
}
/* Replace search button with image*/
input#btn_search {
width: 65px;
height: 20px;
padding: 20px 0 0 0;
margin: 1px 0 0 0;
border: 0;
background: transparent url(../images/btn.search.gif) no-repeat center top;
overflow: hidden;
cursor: pointer; /* hand-shaped cursor */
cursor: hand; /* for IE 5.x */
}
form>input#btn_search { /* For non-IE browsers*/
height: 0px;
}
input#btn_search:focus, input#btn_search:hover {
background: transparent url(../images/btn.search.over.gif) no-repeat center top;
}
have you made sure that display:block has been added to the css on the input? That oughta do the trick.
This sounds like a text-indent / image-to-replace-button issue in IE6.0 and 7.0. This solution has worked for me a few times.
Make a separate stylesheet for these browser versions and put this code in your header:
<!--[if lt IE 8]>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="ie7-and-down.css" />
<![endif]-->
In the CSS file, try something like this (you can change this to input#btn_search or whatever you're targeting specifically)
#btn_search {
width: 85px;
height: 20px;
padding: 20px 0 0 0;
margin: 1px 0 0 0;
border: 0;
background: transparent url(../images/btn.search.gif) no-repeat center top;
cursor: pointer; /* hand-shaped cursor */
cursor: hand; /* for IE 5.x */
font-size: 0;
color: #fff;
text-align: right;
text-indent: 0;
}
"color" should be the same colour as your background.
"width" should be like 20-30 pixels MORE than the width of your image.

There are two things I can see from the code that could cause this:
1 - the image btn.search.gif is either completely transparent, the colour of the background or not found. The button has no background colour and no border, so would not appear if not for the image/text
2 - the button visibility is set to none, which leaves space on the page but doesn't render the button. Can you look at the styles in firebug?
I finally sorted this by removing the:
form>input#btn_search { /* For non-IE browsers*/
height: 0px;
}
I had always included this with CSS image replacements after reading it somewhere ages ago, but leaving it out doesn't seem to have affected any other browser and has fixed the problem in IE7.
if you add a name attribute, does it work?
The problem likely comes from the Guillotine Bug. It's a bug in IE6 and IE7 that occurs when certain mixtures of :hover, float, and layout are present (see link for details). I believe that inserting this:
<div class="clear"><!-- --></div>
right before </form> and then applying the following CSS to it:
.clear {clear:both;}
would fix it.

How to change an input button image using CSS

So, I can create an input button with an image using
<INPUT type="image" src="/images/Btn.PNG" value="">
But, I can't get the same behavior using CSS. For instance, I've tried
<INPUT type="image" class="myButton" value="">
where "myButton" is defined in the CSS file as
.myButton {
background:url(/images/Btn.PNG) no-repeat;
cursor:pointer;
width: 200px;
height: 100px;
border: none;
}
If that's all I wanted to do, I could use the original style, but I want to change the button's appearance on hover (using a myButton:hover class). I know the links are good, because I've been able to load them for a background image for other parts of the page (just as a check). I found examples on the web of how to do it using JavaScript, but I'm looking for a CSS solution.
I'm using Firefox 3.0.3 if that makes a difference.
If you're wanting to style the button using CSS, make it a type="submit" button instead of type="image". type="image" expects a SRC, which you can't set in CSS.
Note that Safari won't let you style any button in the manner you're looking for. If you need Safari support, you'll need to place an image and have an onclick function that submits the form.
You can use the <button> tag. For a submit, simply add type="submit". Then use a background image when you want the button to appear as a graphic.
Like so:
<button type="submit" style="border: 0; background: transparent">
<img src="https://i.imgur.com/tXLqhgC.png" width="90" height="90" alt="submit" />
</button>
More info
div.myButton input {
background: url(https://i.imgur.com/tXLqhgC.png) no-repeat;
background-size: 90px;
width: 90px;
height: 90px;
cursor: pointer;
border: none;
}
<div class="myButton">
<INPUT type="submit" name="" value="">
</div>
This will work anywhere, even in Safari.
This article about CSS image replacement for submit buttons could help.
"Using this method you'll get a clickable image when style sheets are active, and a standard button when style sheets are off. The trick is to apply the image replace methods to a button tag and use it as the submit button, instead of using input.
And since button borders are erased, it's also recommendable change the button cursor to
the hand shaped one used for links, since this provides a visual tip to the users."
The CSS code:
#replacement-1 {
width: 100px;
height: 55px;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
border: 0;
background: transparent url(image.gif) no-repeat center top;
text-indent: -1000em;
cursor: pointer; /* hand-shaped cursor */
cursor: hand; /* for IE 5.x */
}
#replacement-2 {
width: 100px;
height: 55px;
padding: 55px 0 0;
margin: 0;
border: 0;
background: transparent url(image.gif) no-repeat center top;
overflow: hidden;
cursor: pointer; /* hand-shaped cursor */
cursor: hand; /* for IE 5.x */
}
form>#replacement-2 { /* For non-IE browsers*/
height: 0px;
}
Here's a simpler solution but with no extra surrounding div:
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
The CSS uses a basic image replacement technique. For bonus points, it shows using an image sprite:
<style>
input[type="submit"] {
border: 0;
background: url('sprite.png') no-repeat -40px left;
text-indent: -9999em;
line-height:3000;
width: 50px;
height: 20px;
}
</style>

Here is what worked for me on Internet Explorer, a slight modification to the solution by Philoye.
>#divbutton
{
position:relative;
top:-64px;
left:210px;
background: transparent url("../../images/login_go.png") no-repeat;
line-height:3000;
width:33px;
height:32px;
border:none;
cursor:pointer;
}
You can use blank.gif (a one-pixel transparent image) as the target in your tag:
<input type="image" src="img/blank.gif" class="button">
And then style background in CSS:
.button {border:0;background:transparent url("../img/button.png") no-repeat 0 0;}
.button:hover {background:transparent url("../img/button-hover.png") no-repeat 0 0;}
A variation on the previous answers:
I found that opacity needs to be set, of course this will work in Internet Explorer 6 and on. There was a problem with the line-height solution in Internet Explorer 8 where the button would not respond. And with this you get a hand cursor as well!
<div id="myButton">
<input id="myInputButton" type="submit" name="" value="">
</div>
#myButton {
background: url("form_send_button.gif") no-repeat;
width: 62px;
height: 24px;
}
#myInputButton {
background: url("form_send_button.gif") no-repeat;
opacity: 0;
-ms-filter: "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(Opacity=0)";
filter: alpha(opacity=0);
width: 67px;
height: 26px;
cursor: pointer;
cursor: hand;
}
I think the following is the best solution:
CSS:
.edit-button {
background-image: url(edit.png);
background-size: 100%;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
width: 24px;
height: 24px;
}
HTML:
<input class="edit-button" type="image" src="transparent.png" />
My solution without JavaScript and without images is this:
HTML:
<input type=Submit class=continue_shopping_2
name=Register title="Confirm Your Data!"
value="confirm your data">
CSS:
.continue_shopping_2: hover {
background-color: #FF9933;
text-decoration: none;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
.continue_shopping_2 {
padding: 0 0 3px 0;
cursor: pointer;
background-color: #EC5500;
display: block;
text-align: center;
margin-top: 8px;
width: 174px;
height: 21px;
border-radius: 5px;
border-width: 1px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #919191;
font-family: Verdana;
font-size: 13px;
font-style: normal;
line-height: normal;
font-weight: bold;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
Perhaps you could just import a .js file as well and have the image replacement there, in JavaScript.
Let's assume you can't change the input type, or even the src. You only have CSS to play with.
If you know the height you want, and you have the URL of a background image you want to use instead, you're in luck.
Set the height to zero and padding-top to the height you want. That'll shove the original image out of sight, giving you a perfectly clean space to show your CSS background-image.
It works in Chrome. I don't have any idea if it works in Internet Explorer. Barely anything clever does, so probably not.
#daft {
height: 0;
padding-top: 100px;
width: 100px;
background-image: url(clever.jpg);
}
<input type="image" src="daft.jpg" id="daft">
