Total noob question, but here.
CSS
.product__specfield_8_arrow {
/*background-image:url(../../upload/orng_bg_arrow.png);
background-repeat:no-repeat;*/
background-color:#fc0;
width:50px !important;
height:33px !important;
border: 1px solid #dddddd;
border-left:none;
border-radius:5px;
-moz-border-radius:5px;
-webkit-border-radius:5px;
border-bottom-left-radius:0px;
border-top-left-radius:0px;
-moz-border-radius-bottomleft:0px;
-moz-border-radius-topleft:0px;
-webkit-border-bottom-left-radius:0px;
-webkit-border-top-left-radius:0px;
margin:0;
padding:2px;
cursor:pointer;
}
HTML
<span class="product__specfield_8_arrow"> </span>
Basically I'm trying to emulate a button, make a span (or something) look like a button next to an input field that actually doesn't need to be one because of an auto fill generator that generates errors onEnter. Thought this'd be a quick fix for now but obviously not.
Thanks.
Try using a
div
instead of thespan
or using the CSSdisplay: block;
ordisplay: inline-block;
—span
is by default an inline element which cannot takewidth
andheight
properties.Inspired from @Hamed, I added the following and it worked for me:
Span starts out as an inline element. You can change its display attribute to block, for instance, and its height/width attributes will start to take effect.
As per comment from @Paul, If display: block is specified, span stops to be an inline element and an element after it appears on next line.
I came here to find solution to my span height problem and I got a solution of my own
Adding
overflow:hidden;
and keeing it inline will solve the problem just tested in IE8 Quirks modespan
s are by default displayed inline, which means they don't have a height and width.Try adding a
display: block
to your span.Span is an inline element. It has no width or height.
You could turn it into a block-level element, then it will accept your dimension directives.
