CSS - Form Button Background
Hi all,
I'm working on styling a form button at the moment. I've got it styled perfectly to how I want it, with the correct mouseover and mouseout colours (mouseOver = light grey, mouseOut = white). However when the page is loaded initially, the background colour is set to something I haven't manually chosen - darker grey. Once I put the cursor over it and off it, the desired colours appear; however it's just this initial-colour problem that I can't seem to root out. Here's the link. Button.html I believe this initial colour is the background colour of a standard button, but I can't seem to fix it so that it doesn't appear. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks Jaiyan Code: <html> <head><title></title> <style type="text/css"> INPUT.formButton { color: Gray; font: 11px Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-decoration: none; background-color: white border: 1px solid #708090; text-align: center; display: block; width: 150px; padding: 3px 5px; /*margin: 7px;*/ } </style> </head> <body> <form action="/expense_attach.phtml" method="post"> <input type="submit" name="which" class="formButton" onmouseover="this.style.background='#DADADA'; return true" onmouseout="this.style.background='#FFFFFF';" value="Investigator"> </form> </body> </html> Similar TutorialsI'm having trouble setting the background image of a submit button. This is my code: Code: <input class="submit" type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" style="background-image:url('img/enter.jpg');" /> I've also tried putting the css in my external css file in the .submit tag... didn't work. I know the path to the image is correct because the following works: Code: <input type="image" src="img/enter.jpg" /> What gives? Thanks How can I set the color inside a radio button. background-color won't work. it sets color around radio buttons. I tested color, it is not working for this as well. i'm trying to style my submit button to have a gradient background with a solid blue border. looks awesome in FF, however when I try to apply the background image to the submit button in IE (6 and 7), there will be an extra border inside of the blue border. it seems to be whatever color i set my background-color to. Code: border: 1px solid #69A2CC; background: transparent url(gradient.jpg) no-repeat scroll 0 center; Hello. I have created a form with CSS and Divs. My problem is my "Submit your Testimonial" button background is all messed up and doesn't look like my "Reset Form" button in IE 6.0 SP2. It looks fine in Firefox. Not sure how or where this gets changed. It seems to be adding a thicker border or something? Here is the page: http://www.nessphysiotherapy.com/testimonials.php Suggestions? Thanks Matt Is there a way in CSS to set rollover effects on form buttons? Such as different bg colour, diff fonts, etc.. I have form located below the google map on this page - http://www.hometowntrans.com/map_hours.asp I want to style it such that it has a 3d look to it if you will, with a gray background and black text. Hi there, I am trying to style a button with inline css, however, it is not working. I think it is the background images and the single quotes. This is my code: PHP Code: $options .= '<input style=\"margin-top: 5px;background-image: url(\'button_bg.jpg\'); background-repeat:repeat scroll 0%;background-color: #71d63e;border:0px #234B69 solid;color:#ffffff;font-family: arial, Verdana;font-size:11px; font-weight: bold;height:26px;padding:5px;width: 40px;vertical-align: middle\" type="submit" name="upgrade" value="Upgrade"></form>'; Any ideas what I have wrong? Hi, Is anyone aware of why the background color of my forms won't work in Safari? Here's the CSS code: Code: input { background: #010101; border: none; color: #FEFEFE; font: 9px Georgia, Arial, Helvetica, san-serif; letter-spacing: 0px; line-height: 12px; margin: 0px 0px 0px 4px; } The background in Safari is white instead of black. Help please! Viggo Hi, I need a class, that if I apply to a DIV tag (which has login form), It makes the background of that div a dull colored. Also I want to know if I need to force the user to first close that div before any other action outside the div. I hope this make sense. I am not sure if it can be done only with CSS or it also needs javascript. Is there a simple way of applying a CSS style to only the form fields that are empty? I searched online and found this but doesn't seem to work. Code: input[value=""] { background-color: #FFFF66; } any other ideas? I have a form that has background images for the inputs. In both IE 6 and IE 7, the background images will move if the text goes outside of the image. You can see what I'm talking about here. Here is the xhtml: Code: <div class="contact"> <form action="sendmail.php" method="post" id="contactform"> <ul> <li> <label for="name"><img class="label" src="images/name.png" alt="" /></label> <input class="inputbox" type="text" name="name" value="" id="name" /> </li> <li> <label for="email"><img class="label" src="images/email.png" alt="" /></label> <input class="inputbox" type="text" name="email" value="" id="email" /> </li> <li> <label for="tele"><img class="label" src="images/phone.png" alt="" /></label> <input class="inputbox" type="text" name="tele" value="" id="tele" /> </li> <li class="special"> <label for="last">Don't fill this in:</label> <input type="text" name="last" value="" id="last" /> </li> <li> <label for="message"><img class="label" src="images/message.png" alt="" /></label> <textarea rows="5" cols="30" name="message" class="messagebox"></textarea> </li> <li class="submitbutton"> <input type="submit" value="" class="formbutton" /> </li> </ul> </form> </div> and here is the relevant css: Code: .inputbox { height: 39px; width: 246px; border: none; padding: 10px 10px 0 10px; background: url("../images/inputbox.png") no-repeat 0 0; font: bold italic 1.25em/1.1em Lucida, sans; color: #3d2d06; } I'm sure this is an easy one but I can't really figure it out and googling has not produced any results. Thanks in advance. Hi, Please see http://lbclibrary.org/addtoinquiry.php (scroll down a bit to see the form) What I want to do is, when the user selects "I am a member of ..." or "I want to become a member of..." the form fields in the OTHER cell should become readonly (i.e. should not allow input). Is it possible to make ALL the form elements in one <td> cell as readonly? Further, is it possible to change their background colors to say light grey? Then, when you select another radio option, that cell becomes writable and the other cell becomes readonly. Thanks a lot! I'm trying to reduce the amount of real estate that a form and button are taking up in my table. They are expanding the whole row and lining them up with the other contents isn't working in the CSS methods I've tried. Finally I tried reduce the font-size of the cell containing the form and button (all the way down to 1px) which gives the desired result... but I'm a bit concerned about implementing it into all the tables in the site because it seems a bit 'hacky'. Is there a better way to do this? My Webpage You'll see in the first table, final column containing the button, that the button and form and pushed up against the top of the cell and the other cells now have more padding. In the second table, my "font-size:1px" has been applied and gives the desired result. Just curious if there is a better way to do this or if this is will be fine. i know that IE doesnt support the :hover being added to anything but links, is this the same with :active? was just wondering whether i could have a style change when the user clicks on a form button I have a div with a background color set, that I want to have slightly transparent. Inside that div, is essentially my entire website. Now if I apply the opacity to the main outer div, all the divs inside inherit that transparency. Any ways to get around this? The outer Div with the transparency is the "content_wrapper" div. It excludes the header and footer. So the only issue is correcting everything wrapped inside the "content_wrapper" and "content" div. I tried setting the "content" div to opacity: 1; but it had no effect whatsoever. http://www.area51entertainment.co/index.php?about The layout I have going is a bit difficult to explain. Here's a diagram.. The area of importance is the header. The content and main head area are centered. The area to the left and right of the header are a <div>. However, as you can see, the background image on the left is different than the one on the right. I'm having difficulty making this work. the images can be stretched horizontally without a problem, but the two sides must meet in the middle beneath the header. I hope this makes sense. What I've got to do, I think, is tell the background image of the underlying <div> to stretch to 100%, and make this image 300px wide or so including both sides of the image and a split. The split would hide behind the header. I can't find a method to stretch the background image, though. Does anybody know of a better way, or a way to achieve this method at all without getting into completely different layouts? Thanks in advance for any assistance/suggestions. So I have a design where the background is a large (1400x1100) image that fades into a vertical gradient at the edges. I've set up the css as follows: body { background: #000 url(gradient.jpg) repeat-x; margin: 0; } Here's where I run into my problem... I've created an empty DIV to hold the large image which will appear on top of the gradient and positioned it absolutely. <div id="bg_image"></div> #bg_image { width: 100%; height: 1100px; background: url(images/bg_image.jpg) no-repeat top center; margin: 0; position:absolute; } This works and the background looks like it should, however because the large image is inside a DIV, any time the browser window is smaller than that div (which will be the case for most users considering the image size) there will be scrollbars. This makes perfect sense of course I just can't come up with an alternative. If there was a way to extend a background image beyond the borders of a DIV that would work but overflow:visible; doesn't seem to work with background images only content. I wish I could set a repeating background AND a static background in the body style, because that is exactly the effect I'm trying to achieve. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Josh basically if i add a border around a button in FF i can click the button however the effect of "pressing" a button is lost.. IE mainatain this! is there a solution or will i have to live with it? I have a table with a specified background color (specified in CSS). The content part of the table (a cell) uses information from a downloaded script (wordpress.com) to load information. I want the table background to shine through everything. How can I accomplish this (I suspect it is in the script CSS, but I don't know what). URL The 'home' page is how I want it (basically that background effect). But the other pages come out funny with no background. Could someone solve this, or alternatively reccommend another way. |
