Add space between HTML elements only using CSS

2019-01-30 04:54发布

问题:

I have several same HTML elements going one after another:

<span>1</span>
<span>2</span>
<span>3</span>

I'm looking for the best way of adding space BETWEEN the elements using CSS only

[no space]  [1]  [space 10px]  [2]  [space 10px]  [3]  [no space]

Additionally:

  • Please write down browser compatibility of your receipts

UPDATE

It looks like I was unclear. I don't want to use ANY ADDITIONAL HTML MARKUP like

<span></span>  <span></span>  <span class="last_span"></span>

I don't want to use tables

I want the first and last span to be targeted automatically by CSS

I don't want to use javascript

Optional requirement: last span can be NOT LAST CHILD of the parent tag, but it will be the LAST SPAN of the parent tag. Spans do not have any other tags between them.

回答1:

A good way to do it is this:

span + span {
    margin-left: 10px;
}

Every span preceded by a span (so, every span except the first) will have margin-left: 10px.

回答2:

Just use margin or padding.

In your specific case, you could use margin:0 10px only on the 2nd <span>.

UPDATE

Here's a nice CSS3 solution (jsFiddle):

span {
    margin: 0 10px;
}

span:first-of-type {
    margin-left: 0;
}

span:last-of-type {
    margin-right: 0;
}

Advanced element selection using selectors like :nth-child(), :last-child, :first-of-type, etc. is supported since Internet Explorer 9.



回答3:

You can take advantage of the fact that span is an inline element

span{
     word-spacing:10px;
}

However, this solution will break if you have more than one word of text in your span



回答4:

That's so easy.

You can style elements with excluding first one, just in one line of code:

span ~ span {
padding-left: 10px;
}

and done, with no class manipulating.



回答5:

You can write like this:

span{
 margin-left:10px;
}
span:first-child{
 margin-left:0;
}


回答6:

span:not(:last-child) {
    margin-right: 10px;
}


回答7:

<span> is an inline element so you cant make spacing on them without making it block level. Try this

Horizontal

span{
    margin-right: 10px;
    float: left;
}

Vertical

span{
    margin-bottom: 10px;
}

Compatible with all browsers.



回答8:

You should wrap your elements inside a container, then use new CSS3 features like css grid, free course, and then use grid-gap:value that was created for your specific problem

span{
  border:1px solid red;
}
.inRow{
  display:grid;
  grid-template-columns:repeat(auto-fill,auto);
  grid-gap:10px /*This add space between elements, only works on grid items*/
}
.inColumn{
  display:grid;
  grid-template-rows:repeat(auto-fill,auto);
  grid-gap:15px;
}
<div class="inrow">
  <span>1</span>
  <span>2</span>
  <span>3</span>
</div>
<div class="inColumn">
  <span>4</span>
  <span>5</span>
  <span>6</span>
</div>



回答9:

span.middle {
    margin: 0 10px 0 10px; /*top right bottom left */
}

<span>text</span> <span class="middle">text</span> <span>text</span>


回答10:

Or, instead of setting margin and than overriding it, you can just set it properly right away with the following combo:

span:not(:first-of-type) {
    margin-left:  5px;
}

span:not(:last-of-type) {
    margin-right: 5px;
}
