I want to customize my submit button so that, when the mouse hovers over it, it crossfades to a new background-image position in my sprite. I can easily get it to switch to that position, but I'd like to have it slowly fade instead.
There are tons of articles on how to do this for simple links, but they all essentially position the other images over the button area, and then fade opacities correspondingly. This doesn't seem possible with a submit button, since input elements don't seem to be able to contain child elements (ie. the other background sprites). Ideas?
I am not sure if this is what you are looking but take a look anyway

anyway, you can still add a click listener event using jquery to any div and make it act like a submit button.
$("div.submit").click(function() {
document.forms[0].submit();
});
add the css, for the mouse over
div.submit:hover {
pointer: cursor;
}
I don't know for sure but if you make the buttons container (a div sized to exactly match the button) you can give it a background image and then fade out the buttons opacity. Can you give an example of the two states you are trying to blend between? It would help give a more specific answer.
There is no consistent way to do this in CSS across all major browsers.
For something like that, you really want jQuery.
Here's a working jsFiddle that shows one example of how you can do this. Just update the fade var to change the timing of the fades.

I am building an audio player in a SPA and have a main player widget that shows the currently playing track along with controls at the bottom of the page. The desired UI is to hide all controls but the play/pause button until the user hovers near the play/pause button. At this point the extra information, seek bar, volume controls etc. will be animated onto the screen.
Excuse my shoddy drawing
I should add that the controls are positioned fixed to the bottom of the screen.
Initially, I tried adding an extra fixed positioned div on top of everything (high z-index) and using that to trigger the hover event. Obviously, this doesn't allow for clicking the buttons below it so I tried pointer-events: none on the element but then no hover event is registered.
I then tried putting the hover region underneath the control elements and adding the hover trigger to both the hover region and the controls. This causes strange behavior when moving the cursor between the hover region and any controls (i.e. to click pause/play).
My next thought is to scrap the hover region HTML element and use a pure JS solution. I could register a mousemove event to the document body and detect when the cursor is within the hover region, triggering control animations. However, I am worried this might cause performance issues as seems a bit heavy.
I hope someone has some input/improvements on the things I have tried or comes up with something I haven't thought of!
BTW: I am using angular2 for the animation if that sparks some bright ideas to use that.
Update 1
Here's a jsFiddle showing the first two attempts. Change the z-index of hover-region to see the effect of it being on top of the play button or below.
I've created a working version for you at http://jsfiddle.net/6wk69fvo/1/. You already did what I was going to suggest, which is to use onmouseenter and onmouseleave.
But rather than just checking the hover area, you also need to check the toolbar area, and then just OR the two values together.
Also note that I put the play / pause button as a child of the hover area. If you don't want to do that, you'd need to create a third check for mouseenter or mouseleave for that div.
You can alter the control's opacity make it visible/invisible. Here is a simple example done in pure html/js to avoid the overhead of setting up an ng2 app, yet, I'm sure you can quickly adapt it to your code.
I'm looking to create an effect similar to this: https://www.livestrong.org/donation/
I'm just wondering what ways there are to place images/buttons over top of a background. Would I just do a class/div with a background and then put the buttons within this div? I'm not sure if it's that simple but I'd like to make sure I'm on the right track before I delve into this.
You you're on the right track.You can use$('#secondDiv').insertBefore('#firstDiv');,assuming you know JS.I'm sure theres a way through CSS, but it probably won't be the best choice. And you can use :active and :hover via CSS for the actual buttons if you try to create that. So when the user hovers on it it'll turn into a light grey, then when they click on it, it'll to a yellow color. Here's an example
#firstbutton:active{
background:#009dff
}
#firstbutton:hover{
background:#0148A0
}
I create a css button with some tutorial jsfiddle.net/EC2Eh/12/ but this is based on
jquery mobile. How to create a similar button just with javascript that will work like that button, and also where I can change a color of button and dimension.
Here on this jsfiddle.net/EC2Eh/12/ I can't change any color, dimension and so. So can you please tell me is there some tutotial to build this button bar (radio button) that will work just like that but where I can change all things.
Thanksa lot!
and sorry abut my english is not very well but I;m leasen hard.
just 3 steps you have to follow:
take 2 divs
adjust height ,width
give the divs rounded border
change color on MouseHover event and onClick event
Download firebug for firefox, right click on the element in the fiddle and copy out all the css for that element and apply it to your button.
Alright, so the title may not be the best way to describe what i am trying to do, but i am not sure quite how to phrase it.
To start of (when the page loads) there are 20 'tiles' which serve as buttons on a page. They are divs. The 5 on top are larger and the rest of the rows are the same size.
Once one of the buttons is clicked, i want a div to show under the row of the button that is clicked. I know how to do this part using jquery toggle. Here is an example of what i will want it to look like once a button is clicked.
You can see in the drawing how i want it to sort of look like a tab once it is clicked. I am having trouble thinking of how i am going to add the part that ties the button div into the div that is toggled in the middle of the rows. This part:
I sort of thought that i could make 5 images, one for each column of buttons, that has that little part of background color, and toggle the image as well. I believe that there is a better way to do this so i am looking for a steer in the right direction. I have had some trouble searching for something like this as I dont really know what to call it so i thought i would come here for help. Thanks!
I would increase the height of the tile when it is clicked (so that it expands down from the upper red line to the lower red line shown in the last image).
It can all be done just with CSS (using the checkbox hack in the same way I made this div to increase its height) or with JavaScript (if you want reliable behaviour for IE8 and especially IE7).
Like this fiddle :

I'm looking for a way to do an effect which is most likely a combination of things, the base of it would be something like this:

As you can see, when you scroll down, a div is actually sliding up. I am not sure there is such a plugin, and if there is, is it possible to resize and maybe re-position elements as you scroll down?
I've seen the post:
How to make div scroll down with a page once it reaches top of page?
and I know of sticky elements http://imakewebthings.github.com/jquery-waypoints/sticky-elements/
Is it even possible to do something like this? If yes, can you give me links/examples please?
And of course I need to make it super super smooth like the Nike one...ha
Here is a jsfiddle, but I can't get it to work right.

Thanks.
I've modified your JSFiddle. I tested it in Chrome, Firefox, and IE7+.
http://jsfiddle.net/t0nyh0/aMXRq/3/
I've cleaned it up a bit and moved all your "states" into classes. On scroll, it simply uses JQuery to add and remove classes based on the scroll position.
Note that there is no animation, if you wish to animate it, you can use class transitions to animate. See more here: http://docs.jquery.com/UI/Effects/ClassTransitions.
In regards to entering full mode on keydown, you can again create an "expand" class and apply it upon keydown. You can then structure your CSS as follows:
.minState3.expand { }
and to show the button again
.minState3.expand button { display:block; }
Doing it this way allows you the flexibility to define how it looks based on the different states.
