I have a created a cool theme for checkboxes which renders them as iOS-5 style buttons with animation, all in CSS, but I have this annoying problem with the background not being clipped on webkit for the rounded corners. I know this bug is because clipping container has position which causes the thing, but I can't think of any way to fix this..
Does someone knows how to deal with this issue?
I have dug into this bug didn't find anything useful. 10x!
CHECK THE DEMO (works great on Firefox)
Adding this does work:
.togglebox label::before {
border-top-left-radius: 20px;
border-bottom-left-radius: 20px;
}
.togglebox label::after {
border-top-right-radius: 20px;
border-bottom-right-radius: 20px;
}
I'd also make a small modification to the 'checked' state:
.togglebox input:checked ~ label { left: -61px }
But the problem is that the check box becomes visible then. Adding something simple like:
#chkbx {position: absolute; left: 10px;}
should solve that problem.
Here's the jsfiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/XCKau/2/
I advise you to not put a display: none; on the input! Just to be sure. - Just tested it: when it's NOT in display: none; people using IE8 can still use the check box. If you do use it, they wouldn't be able to 'check' anything.
This is better than before... But still not perfect.
http://jsfiddle.net/XCKau/1/
Add a border-radius to the label:before and label:after and hide the checkbox:
.togglebox label::before{
border-top-left-radius: 20px;
border-bottom-left-radius: 20px;
}
.togglebox label::after{
border-top-right-radius: 20px;
border-bottom-right-radius: 20px;
}
input[type=checkbox]{
visibility:hidden;
}

I have a tooltip popup with a z-index at the highest level. When the user clicks the tooltip in IE7, it displays under content on the page, instead of above it. This issue is only occuring in IE7.
.tipBody {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border: 1px solid #000;
margin-top: -18px;
padding: 10px;
z-index: 9999;
position: relative;
}
I suggest you to try adding !important after the property value, like this:
.tipBody {
background-color: #FFFFFF;
border: 1px solid #000;
margin-top: -18px;
padding: 10px;
z-index: 9999 !important;
position: relative;
}
See if that works.
In IE, positioned elements follow a different stacking order. You can usually fix it by giving the parent of your element a higher z-index.
I suggest you read the following link, it gives you a good explanation about the issue, and how you can solve it.

I'm trying to make custom checkboxes with CSS3, which is working great on Chrome. On Firefox... not so much.
Edit: it seems to be working fine on Firefox 37.
The answer below is still relevant, but the style related issues from mid 2013 are resolved.
IE support isn't mentioned here but edits/answers regarding it are welcome.

The HTML:
<input type="checkbox" id="first"/>
<label for="first">This is pretty awesome</label>
The CSS:
input[type=checkbox] {
appearance: none;
background: transparent;
position: relative;
}
input[type=checkbox]::after {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
content: '';
text-align: center;
background: #aaa;
display: block;
pointer-events: none;
opacity: 1;
color: black;
border: 3px solid black;
}
input[type=checkbox] + label {
line-height: 48px;
margin: 0 15px 0 15px;
}
input[type=checkbox]:hover::after {
content: '';
background: #32cd32;
opacity: .3;
}
input[type=checkbox]:checked::after {
content: '\2713';
background: #32cd32;
}
input[type=checkbox]:checked:hover::after {
opacity: 1;
}
input[type=checkbox],
input[type=checkbox]::after {
width: 48px;
height: 48px;
font-size: 46px;
line-height: 48px;
vertical-align: middle;
border-radius: 50%;
}
* {
box-sizing: border-box;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
Note: I removed vendor prefixes, and things like user-select for brevity. The full code is in the pen.
What do I need to change to have it look the same on Firefox as it does on Chrome?

You can enable custom styles for checkbox specifically for mozilla browser by adding this property and it worked for me.
-moz-appearance:initial
I managed to fix it as much as seems possible (I'd still love a better solution, if one exists). I switched all of the selectors from
input[type=checkbox]::after
to
input[type=checkbox] + label::after
Downside:
requires a label
But:
HTML requires input elements to have a label
Conclusion:
only bad for invalid HTML
doesnt technically need a LABEL, but does need control over the mark up to ensure there is a target-able sibling immediately after the checkbox.
i.e.
input[type=checkbox] + span::after{
display:block;
width:50px;
height:50px;
background:yellow;
display:block;
}
input[type=checkbox]:checked + span::after{
display:block;
width:50px;
height:50px;
background:yellow;
display:block;
}
<input type="checkbox"></input>
<span class="targetMe"></span>
target the span using the sibling selector and :after elements as above.
Might as well put in a label tho at this point... :P
The problem is that :after and ::after technically create an element as the last child of the element the pseudoselector is applied to. Firefox doesn't like to create children inside of its checkboxes. This is actually part of a bigger topic which is replaced elements.
You will see the same issue with the :before and ::before pseudoelements not working on checkboxes because they would create elements as a first child element within the element being selected.
I'm trying to customize the html5 input type=range tag using some css, so far I've made something using the webkit:
div#timeline input[type="range"] {
-webkit-appearance: none;
background-color: darkgray;
height: 2px;
border-right: black solid 4px;
border-left: black solid 4px;
}
div#timeline input[type="range"]::-webkit-slider-thumb {
-webkit-appearance: none;
position: relative;
top: 0px;
z-index: 1;
width: 16px;
height: 8px;
background: #696060;
}
however seems like that this only works with chrome, is it possible to make a custom slider so that is the same for every browser?
I was thinking about making something that will emulate the behavior of an input range, but I couldn't find anything online and I'm quite new with javascript and stuff
You can try using some javascript library like jQueryUI or jQueryTools. The last one has pretty simple demos:
http://jquerytools.org/release-notes/index.html#form
Unfortunaly the input range can't be styled in a cross-browser way with just pure CSS right now, we need to wait a little bit more.
I am currently trying to wrap my brain around a problem, but i can't seem to grasp it.
In an unordered list for a navigation, i want to add an icon before every list item via css before pseudo class.
<ul class="list">
<li class="list-item">one</li>
<li class="list-item">two</li>
<li class="list-item">three</li>
<li class="list-item">four</li>
</ul>
My first thought was to give both elements (the icon and the a-tag) display:inline-block and align the icon with vertical-align:middle. With just little adjustments (margin-bottom), this works well in chrome:
.list-item {
display: block;
font-weight: bold;
text-transform: uppercase;
margin: 10px 0;
padding-bottom: 10px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #F3F3F3;
height:1.5em;
overflow:hidden;
}
.list-item:before {
display: inline-block;
content: '';
vertical-align: middle;
background-color: red;
width: 5px;
height: 7px;
margin: 0 4px 0.125em 5px;
}
.list-item a {
display: inline-block;
overflow: hidden;
line-height: 1.5;
height:1.5em;
}
But when you load the page in firefox, the icon is way off at the bottom. http://jsfiddle.net/pUhPB/4/
I tried what seems to me every possible combination of display, vertical-align and margin-values to get it right in both browsers, and finally, if i give the a-tag vertical-align:middle and the icon vertical-align:baseline, it seems to work:
.list-item {
display: block;
font-weight: bold;
text-transform: uppercase;
margin: 10px 0;
padding-bottom: 10px;
border-bottom: 1px solid #F3F3F3;
height:1.5em;
overflow:hidden;
}
.list-item:before {
display: inline-block;
content: '';
vertical-align: baseline;
background-color: red;
width: 5px;
height: 7px;
margin: 0 4px 0 5px;
}
.list-item a {
display: inline-block;
vertical-align:middle;
overflow: hidden;
line-height: 1.5;
height:1.5em;
}
http://jsfiddle.net/L3N3f/
But i just don't get it. Why does the first version not work? To me, it seems way more logical than the version that actually works. And which one of both browsers doesn't render the elements the right way?
I already found a solution that seems to work for me, so it's not a very urgent question, but it bugs me that i don't understand the core of my problem (and the solution), so i would be really thankful if someone could enlighten me on this.
thanks
According to web standard only inline elements can be "vertically aligned" in spite that some browsers, like chrome, still align them. Note that it is the element that is aligned and not its contents!
So if you apply it to a <span> the <span> becomes aligned with the surrounding text and not whatever is inside it within in.
ispo lorem <span> text </span> due carpe diem
adding span {vertical-align:top; border: 1px solid black} makes <span> text </span> (whole box) become higher than the rest of the text and not push the text to the ceiling of the box <span>.
The core issue here is that Firefox is very literal when it comes to web standard whilst Chrome adds a few implicit features like this one.
For more details click here.
EDIT: apparently if you use vertical-align:top ONLY on the <a> it also works.
Your problem is that per spec setting overflow:hidden changes the baseline position of an inline-block. Firefox implements what the spec says. Chrome does not.
So as long as your .list-item a is baseline-aligned, it will render differently in the two browsers. The only way to make the renderings the same is to make sure you don't baseline-align any inline-blocks with non-visible overflow, which is what your second code paste does (it's using vertical-align: middle on the inline-block).
Try this: http://jsfiddle.net/pUhPB/6/
The first thing I do in these situations is to open the code in both browsers. Then I start removing CSS code until I can see the problem. Removing the margins and the vertical-align, both browsers have rendered the code differently. So I keep removing code until they're both the same. Once they were the same in both browsers, I then changed what I could to get the desired effect.
Here's the new CSS:
.list-item:before
{
content: '';
background-color: red;
width: 5px;
height: 7px;
margin: 5px 4px 0 5px;
float:left;
}
I'm having the weirdest issue in IE (7, specifically) when implementing CSS borders. I first noticed this a few months ago.
The CSS is literally this: #donate {border:1px solid #299ae5;}
As you can see from the attached image, both of these screenshots were taken in IE7, from the same website, different pages - same template file. It's like the border has a "tail" in the bottom left corner.
Does anyone have any insight about this???
Edit: Here is the HTML (although I've seen this also on random sites in IE7 recently on input fields as well)
<li><span>Donate</span></li>
And here's the CSS:
li { display: inline; }
li a { color: #fff; display: block; float: left; margin-right: 8px; padding-right: 8px; line-height: 1.2em; }
li a span { background: url(bg-gradient.png) repeat-x 0 0; border: 1px solid #299a35; padding: 1px 5px 2px 4px; }
Thanks in advance!
I tend to use display:inline-block...the only other thing I'd change is making the anchor the button rather than the span. here's a quick example http://jsfiddle.net/3x4fR/2/
Does giving the li a span element the display: block; declaration do the trick? It may be having trouble applying vertical padding to an inline element.
jsfiddle makes testing stuff easy.
If you don't need the span get rid of it if not try *zoom:1 or some other way to give 'hasLayout' to the element. see example here http://jsfiddle.net/ShaggyDude11/zbZr8/3/
