Style Text Buttons with CSS
As the name suggests, the text buttons are buttons with a text on it. Bootstrap includes pre-defined classes such as .btn-default, .btn-primary, .btn-success, .btn-info, .btn-warning, etc. But, we can create buttons with CSS without using the Bootstrap classes. Let us see how to style the text buttons with HTML and CSS.
Buttons
The <button> element is used to set different buttons for information, success, warning and danger. These are the different button styles we will set with CSS −
<button class="Success">Success</button> <button class="Info">Info</button> <button class="Warning">Warning</button> <button class="Danger">Danger</button> <button class="Default">Default</button>
Style the buttons
The buttons are styled like this. For the buttons, the cursor property is set to pointer −
button { border: none; border-radius: 7px; color: white; font-weight: bolder; padding: 15px; font-size: 18px; cursor: pointer; }
The success button
The success button is styled with a different text color using the color property. With that, the background color will change on hovering since under the :hover selector a different background color is set −
.Success { color: #4caf50; } .Success:hover { background: #e7e7e7; }
The information button
The info button is styled with a different text color using the color property. With that, the background color will change on hovering since under the :hover selector a different background color is set −
.Info { color: #2196f3; } .Info:hover { background: #e7e7e7; }
The danger button
The danger button is styled with a different text color using the color property. With that, the background color will change on hovering since under the :hover selector a different background color is set −
.Danger { color: #f44336; } .Danger:hover { background: #e7e7e7; }
The warning button
The warning button is styled with a different text color using the color property. With that, the background color will change on hovering since under the :hover selector a different background color is set −
.Warning { color: #ff9800; } .Warning:hover { background: #e7e7e7; }
Example
The following is the code to style text buttons with CSS −
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <style> button { border: none; border-radius: 7px; color: white; font-weight: bolder; padding: 15px; font-size: 18px; cursor: pointer; } .Success { color: #4caf50; } .Success:hover { background: #e7e7e7; } .Info { color: #2196f3; } .Info:hover { background: #e7e7e7; } .Warning { color: #ff9800; } .Warning:hover { background: #e7e7e7; } .Danger { color: #f44336; } .Danger:hover { background: #e7e7e7; } .Default { color: black; } .Default:hover { background: #e7e7e7; } </style> </head> <body> <h1>Text Buttons Example</h1> <button class="Success">Success</button> <button class="Info">Info</button> <button class="Warning">Warning</button> <button class="Danger">Danger</button> <button class="Default">Default</button> </body> </html>
