Just learning .less and using twitters bootstrap in my project.
If i whant an green button for an form to submit i have to write:
<input type="submit" value="submit" class="btn btn-success" />
But i will be able to skip the class attribute in the input tag.
I will not change the twitter bootstrap file. I will overload them in my default.less file like this:
button, input[type="submit"]{ .btn; .btn-success; }
But then I do not get the hover state and active state to the button and i get errors if i try to make it like this:
button, input[type="submit"]{/* previus code... */ &:hover{ .btn:hover; }}
You may notice what i trying to accomplish. I know I can do this in jquery or javascript but i will be able to do this in my .less-file whitout touching orginal bootsrap-files.
I'm not sure that that is possible without modifying the Bootstrap CSS.
Are you able to modify the bootstrap CSS at all? If so, you could add a .btn-hover class to .btn:hover, and then in button, input[type="submit"]:
&:hover {
.btn-hover;
.btn-success-hover;
}
.btn and .btn-success are classes. These classes are define in buttons.less. They call mixin from mixins.less called .buttonBackground. You can call this mixin for your buttons:
button, input[type="submit"]{
.buttonBackground(#startColor,#endColor);
}
#startColor and #endColor are for button gradient and the hover state uses the #endColor.
Or you can change colour in variables.less (btnInfoBackgroundHighlight) to your own.
Or you can use
.btn-success{
&:hover{
background-color: #yourOwnColor;
}
}

How to customize the Semantic UI buttons(background-color, border-radius and all)
<button class="ui button create-new-menu-btn">Create New Menu</button>
. create-new-menu-btn {
border-radius: 0;
background-color: red;
}
The above code is not working
You need to make your custom properties more specific than the ones semantic is using. How specificity works (simply) is that when there are competing property values on the same element, the one that is more "specific" is chosen.
Read this to know more about CSS specificity: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/CSS/Specificity
For your particular problem:
One way to make your custom CSS more specific is to use an id in the body tag of your page and use the following selector:
Method 1
#bodyid .create-new-menu-btn {
//Properties
}
Another way is to simply add an id to the element you want to select
Method 2
#create-new-menu-btn {
}
Method 1 is preferred when you want to apply the properties on multiple elements (hence the use of a class) (Like multiple comment buttons on a page)
Method 2 is preferred when there is a single element to be selected. (Like a login/signup button in the header)
You can also add semantic ui's classes before your own for specificity.
For example : if your className is .create-new-menu-btn you can add in css or scss before ui.button or any other semantic ui specific clas that you neeed. So in the end, your class definition in css would look like this:
ui.button.create-new-menu-btn {
....
}
If using JSX, you can use inline styling for the targeted elements
Example:
<Button style={{backgroundColor: 'red', borderRadius: 0}}> View Created </Button>
#bodyId .ui.create-new-menu-btn {
border-radius: 0;
background-color: red;
}
It will target all button with ui class.
Hope It will be useful :)
Put .ui.button infront of your class name create-new-btn. It should look like below
.ui.button.create-new-btn {
//Your css code
}
Then in your html/jsx template you can use the class name create-new-btn like below:
<Button class="create-new-btn"/>
or for Jsx
<Button className="create-new-btn"/>
I am developing a web app using twitter bootstrap, i want to create my own button with my own background, i don't want to use the already present buttons using btn-primary etc... but i want to create my own button with my own class. I want to use the core functionality of the btn class. so ideally my button will use the class=" btn btn-myPrimary".
I checked in variables.less and buttons.less, there only i am able to change the value of existing buttons such as btn-primary. i am not able create my own button something like btn-myPrimary.
Thanks in advance for any help.
If you can compile the less files then you can use this button mixin (from mixins.less):
// Button variants
// -------------------------
// Easily pump out default styles, as well as :hover, :focus, :active,
// and disabled options for all buttons
.button-variant(#color; #background; #border) {
color: #color;
background-color: #background;
border-color: #border;
...
If you look at buttons.less you can see how they use it:
.btn-default {
.button-variant(#btn-default-color; #btn-default-bg; #btn-default-border);
}
.btn-primary {
.button-variant(#btn-primary-color; #btn-primary-bg; #btn-primary-border);
}
// Warning appears as orange
.btn-warning {
.button-variant(#btn-warning-color; #btn-warning-bg; #btn-warning-border);
}
// Danger and error appear as red
.btn-danger {
.button-variant(#btn-danger-color; #btn-danger-bg; #btn-danger-border);
}
// Success appears as green
.btn-success {
.button-variant(#btn-success-color; #btn-success-bg; #btn-success-border);
}
// Info appears as blue-green
.btn-info {
.button-variant(#btn-info-color; #btn-info-bg; #btn-info-border);
}

I toggle a class min upon button click. To show this the color is toggled. Is there a way to add an icon to the button, which toggles for example between: icon-double-angle-right and icon-double-angle-left. I linked Font-Awesome CDN. I only care about recent browser, so mainly looking for pseudo elements based sol.
You can achieve this with pseudo attributes :
CSS :
btn.min { background:red; }
.btn:after {
content: attr(data-active-icon);
font-family: 'FontAwesome';
}
.btn.min:after {
content: attr(data-inactive-icon);
font-family: 'FontAwesome';
}
HTML :
<button class="btn" ng-class="{min: min}" ng-click="toggle()" data-active-icon='' data-inactive-icon=''></button>
Where your data-active-icon and data-inactive-icon is taken from this table.
Demo : http://jsbin.com/ariwij/1/edit
I haven't included bootstrap in the demo, but it will integrate just fine.
Make your HTML like this: <button class="btn" ng-class="{min: min}" ng-click="toggle()"><span class="arrow-left"></span></button>
Then use javascript or jquery to replace the class on the <span> with a different class on toggle. Then make your two CSS class rules, one with background image for your left facing arrow, one for your right facing arrow, or whatever the stylistic thing it is you want to achieve.
consider that your button is #butt:
$("#butt").click(function(){
$(this).toggle('red');
})
and CSS:
.red{
color:red;
}
To toggle an icon via class, have a look here:

I have a Submit Button like this:
<input type="submit" data-corners="false" id="code_check_button" tabindex="5" data-rel="external" value="GO">
which - with a custom css theme - outputs this: http://sht.tl/59y3m
Now I would like to use the id (#code_check_button) to style the button with more specificity.
Unfortunately jquerymobile automagically transforms the input type submit in a snippet of code I cannot control: http://sht.tl/cQq
As you can note, the original button ID is useless...
Can you tell me how may I custom style that button (of course, without wrapping it in an extra tag...)?
Thank you!
Numerous ways this can be achieved..
Here are a few examples:
submit {
styles:styles;
}
Not the most compatible in older browsers:
input[type="submit"] {
styles:styles;
}
Then you can target the ID:
#code_check_button {
styles:styles;
}
In your stylesheet add the ID #code_check_button and provide the desired style you want.. see example below :-
#code_check_button {
your desired style properties here...
}
EDIT:
You can use the class of the generated div and style the button accordingly. In this generated snippet you have two elements to style. please find below :-
.ui-btn {
style properties here...
}
.ui-btn .ui-btn-text {
style properties here...
}
CSS
#code_check_button {
color:#000 !important;
width:200px !important;
}
You can see I have added !important tag in all the css properties. This is because of overwritten the jQ mobile default styles.
If something keeps changing your intended css into useless code, this may be a situation where you would resort to simple text (eg. nano for mac or notepad for windows) Web design programs are double edged swords, most of the time the bells and whistles on these programs help make things easier, but sometimes they can make things more complicated. To custom style a button all you have to do is put your id or class selector name in the input tag and then enter the css for it. For example
CSS
#code_check_button { background-image: url(/*desired image url*/);
background-color: /*desired background color*/;
color: /*desired font color*/; }
HTML
<input id="code_check_button" type="submit" name="submit">
Just try it in notepad this time.
So I want all buttons on my site to look the same and I need to edit a CSS file for them.
I was just wondering how you can access the css style of all controls named -asp:button.
Ie. Button { Font-size: 10px; } or #Button { Font-size: 10px; }
So far this is not working.
Most newer browsers support Attribute Selectors, so you could do something like
input[type="submit"] {
//styles here
}
You'll get better all around support by applying a class though as others have suggested.
ASP.NET Button controls render as:
<input type="submit">
You will need to give them a css class name that you can control in your css file.
In server side code:
myButton.CssClass = "myClass"
OR in ASPX markup:
<asp:Button CssClass="myClass" runat="server" ... />
CSS:
.myClass { width: 100px }
Edit having seen your comment:
To modify all buttons across the site you need to use Javascript, the jQuery library is extremely effective at this. If you were using jQuery you would just have this script on your Master page:
$(document).ready(function()
{
// Select all "input" controls with the type of "submit" and add your class to them
$(input[type="submit"]).addClass('myClass');
});
You can inclue CSS class in your asp:button code to give them a class and control their style:
<asp:button CssClass="mybuttons" />
Then you can use this class to style those buttons:
.mybuttons{
font-size:10px;
}
If you had more buttons that are not ASP.NET generated then this class only applies to buttons that are ASP.NET generated not others.
In .NET you need to provide a CSS class for your buttons. If you call it "Button1" for example, your CSS declaration would be:
.Button1 {
...
}
An ASP button is rendered in HTML as an INPUT of type="submit"... you can access all the buttons by using INPUT, but of course there are other INPUTS as well...
input {
font-weight: bold;
font-size: larger;
background-color: Red;
}
