I have a floated element, the whole purpose of which is to display an 'x' signifying that you can remove something:
.remove_button{
background-color:#ff3300;
color:#ffffff;
font-family:Courier New,sans-serif;
font-weight:900;
font-size:20px;
float:right;
border-radius:5px;
padding:0px 6px 0px 6px;
margin-right:15px;
}
<div class="remove_button" title="Remove">x</div>
It does display a neat little 'x' over a red background (no need to make a picture, I'm bad at that), but the problem is that when the mouse hovers over the button the title attribute shows up inside the button, and as a tooltip too:
------xRemove------ one '-' is one pixel of padding
try this,
.remove_button{
background-color:#ff3300;
color:#ffffff;
font-family:Courier New,sans-serif;
font-weight:900;
font-size:20px;
float:right;
border-radius:5px;
padding:0px 6px 0px 6px;
margin-right:15px;
position:relative;
}
.tip{
position:absolute;
display:none;
border:1px solid #aab;
background:#eef;
padding:0 3px;
left:15px;
top:25px;
}
.remove_button:hover .tip{
display:block;
}

How can i get these spaces covered with this box shadow?
CSS-
.button
{
height:24px;
width:120px;
background:black;
position:absolute;
border-radius:2px;
padding:3px;
box-shadow:4px 4px 0px 0px #444;
}
Just a fiddle
Changing the h-shadow and v-shadow will position the shadow on the box.
If you want the shadow to be closer, change the distance of the shadow.
Test it here
Using close shadows might not get you that much effect. Instead you can use background properties and positions... Here is a good example.
Try this:-
.button
{
height:24px;
width:120px;
background:black;
position:absolute;
border-radius:2px;
padding:3px;
box-shadow:2px 2px 0px 2px #444; // changed
}
although my questions has been answered lots of times before, but all the proposed solution I have tried and nothing seems to work.
what am trying to do is a big div that contains li tags; the li tags will also contain anchor tag, 2 divs and p tag.
to understand the big picture.. am trying to make a posting wall (activity-board), the wall will have posts looks like a bubble (div post) and the bubble will point (post-arrow) to a thumbnail image (a thumb3), to make the bubble style I made the post div absolute positioned with z-index less than the arrow-post.
and here is my css:
.activity-board {
background:#fff;
width:600px;
min-height:652px;
height:auto;
border:solid 2px #e7d28d;
border-radius: 6px;
-moz-border-radius: 6px;
-webkit-border-radius: 6px;
-webkit-box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 0px 3px rgba(255, 255, 255, 1);
box-shadow: inset 0px 0px 0px 3px rgba(255, 255, 255, 1);
float:left;
margin-left:20px;
}
.post-body{
position:relative;
display:block;
list-style-type:none;
width:600px;
height:auto;
background:#f9f9f9;
border-bottom:1px solid #CBCBCB;
border-radius:4px 4px 0 0;
-moz-border-radius:4px 4px 0 0;
-webkit-border-radius:4px 4px 0 0;
background: #fff;
float:left;
overflow:visible;
clear:both;
z-index:9;
}
.post{
position:absolute;
width:500px;
line-height:20px;
height:auto;
background:#FFF;
display:block;
margin-top:22.5px;
margin-left:77px;
text-align:left;
float:left;
z-index:1;
}
.post-arrow{
position:relative;
margin-top:32px;
margin-left:6px;
width:12px;
height:18px;
background:url(images/post-arrow.png);
float:left;
z-index:5;
}
.post p{ color:#025373; padding:8px; word-wrap:break-word; }
a.thumb-3 {
margin-top:18px;
display:block;
margin-left:18px;
width:46px;
height:46px;
border-radius: 5px;
-moz-border-radius: 5px;
-webkit-border-radius: 5px;
z-index:10;
float:left;
}
a.thumb-3 img{
padding:0;
margin:0 auto;
width:46px;
height:46px;
float:left;
border-radius:3px;
-moz-border-radius:3px;
-webkit-border-radius:3px;
}
here is my html:
<ul>
<li class="post-body">
<a class="thumb-3"><img src="images/Alsheikh Center (177).jpg" /></a>
<div class="post-arrow"></div>
<div class="post">
<p>
Hi there!
</p>
</div>
</li>
</ul>
http://jsfiddle.net/r9YpX/
Everything worked fine but the li tag does not expand to the content.. it only expands if I change the position of the post div to relative not absolute, which I cant change because it must be absolutely positioned under the arrow image to give it the bubble look.
any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
ok Thanks guys i figuered it out.. I made position:relative and changed margin for post div and it worked! I thought I did this but perhaps I did something wrong that make it not work
I'm making an error message, using a pointer image that should give the left side a border. You can see an example here.
My current css is:
span.arrow {
background-color:white;
background: url('http://i45.tinypic.com/201d0n.png') no-repeat left center;
height:17px;
display:inline-block;
}
span.error {
display:inline-block;
padding-right:2px;
background-color:white;
margin-left:10px;
height:15px;
font-size:small;
border-top:1px solid #99182c;
border-right:1px solid #99182c;
border-bottom:1px solid #99182c;
box-shadow:5px 5px 10px #888888;
position:relative;
top:-2px;
}
And html to display the error:
<span class='arrow'>
<span class='error'>
Errormessage.
</span>
</span>
Now first of all, the code seems a bit messy. Like having to position the span up two pixels is a bit strange. Nevertheless it seems to work in Chrome, FF & Opera, but not in IE9.
If it isn't clear: the box should perfectly aline with the triangle-image.
span.arrow {
background: url('http://i45.tinypic.com/201d0n.png') no-repeat left center transparent;
line-height:17px;
padding-left:10px;
display:inline-block;
}
span.error {
padding-right:2px;
background-color:white;
line-height:15px;
font-size:small;
border-top:1px solid #99182c;
border-right:1px solid #99182c;
border-bottom:1px solid #99182c;
display:block;
}
span.error {
display:inline-block;
padding-right:2px;
background-color:white;
margin-left:10px;
line-height: 17px;
font-size:small;
border-top:1px solid #99182c;
border-right:1px solid #99182c;
border-bottom:1px solid #99182c;
box-shadow:5px 5px 10px #888888;
position:relative;
top:-2px;
}
Generally if you make your line-height match your content area height, the text will be vertically aligned.

I looked in IE and it looked fine.
I have CSS code from a template design that a client wants to use. One of the issue I'm having is that, once a text option is selected (those options with wide length) is writing over the drop-down arrow.
See image
I have tried using z-index and placing overflow:hidden where appropriate. Here is the CSS code:
/* search drop-down values */
select option {}
option.level-0{padding:0 3px;}
option.level-1,option.level-2,option.level-3,
option.level-4,option.level-5,option.level-6,
option.level-7{}

code for the drop-down:

<span id="campus_dropdown"><?php if (empty($_GET['cp_state'])){ wp_campus_dropdown();} ?></span>
<?php if (!empty($_GET['cp_state'])){?>
<script type="text/javascript" >loadXMLDoc('<?php echo $_GET['cp_state'];?>','<?php echo $_GET['cp_your_college'];?>')</script>
<?php }?>
Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated. I know this is a bit too much of CSS, but again its from a template and I have been pulling my hair out for weeks!
Thank you so much in advance!
First of all without sample HTML, we can only guess at how the css is used. After analyzing the css you provided, I took a stab at how I thought it might be used, jsFiddle here. Based on this assumption there are two options:
Set a right padding for the elements that contain the menu options. This may cause the dropdown to widen, but should be better as it will allow users to see the entire text of the option.
Set the background for the dropdown arrow element ('.selectBox-arrow') to a solid color and match the border radius of the containing element. Note that the background color defaults to transparent.
If for whatever reason neither of these options work in your situation, remember, Firebug (or other browser's developer tools) are your friend. These tools can help make short work of problems like this.
I have this structure:
<div class="gBigPage">
<span class="gBigMonthShort">FEB</span><br />
<span class="gBigDayShort">23</span><br />
<span class="gBigYearShort">2011</span>
</div>
The gaps between the text lines are too big, I need them shortened so they are all virtually touching.
/* Mouseover div for day numbers */
.gBigPage{
height:45px;
width:30px;
font-family:Arial;
font-weight:bold;
background-color:#ffee99;
text-align:center;
border-top:1px solid #c0c0c0;
border-left:1px solid #c0c0c0;
border-right:1px solid #c0c0c0;
position:absolute;
z-index:3;
}
.gBigPage:hover{
cursor:pointer;
}
/* In the big day box, the month at top */
.gBigMonthShort{
text-transform:uppercase;
font-size:11px;
}
.gBigYearShort{
font-size:11px;
}
.gBigDayShort{
font-size:16px;
}
I can't do relative positioning for the spans, as there is a bug in Chrome which flickers the mouseover effect, pure CSS is the only thing that seems to work.
Fiddle for example:
http://jsfiddle.net/GmKsv/
All you need is line-hight in your css. Add this to your gBigPage.
Here is the code:
.gBigPage{
height:45px;
width:30px;
font-family:Arial;
font-weight:bold;
background-color:#ffee99;
text-align:center;
border-top:1px solid #c0c0c0;
border-left:1px solid #c0c0c0;
border-right:1px solid #c0c0c0;
position:absolute;
z-index:3;
line-height: 13px;
}
Demo on jsFiddle
Hope it helps!
Use line-height in your css :) you can reduce the gap between lines
Set each element's line-height style, e.g.
.gBigMonthShort { line-height: 10px; }
Tom, have you tried using CSS line-height?
link text
Need to set 2 levels of line height, one in container and one for each span.
* Mouseover div for day numbers */
.gBigPage{
height:45px;
width:30px;
font-family:Arial;
font-weight:bold;
background-color:#ffee99;
text-align:center;
border-top:1px solid #c0c0c0;
border-left:1px solid #c0c0c0;
border-right:1px solid #c0c0c0;
position:absolute;
z-index:3;
line-height:4px;
}
/* In the big day box, the month at top */
.gBigMonthShort{
text-transform:uppercase;
font-size:11px;
line-height:13px;
}
.gBigYearShort{
font-size:11px;
line-height:9px;
}
.gBigDayShort{
font-size:16px;
line-height: 13px;
}
Make the <span>s block-level, and remove the line breaks:
