I Had read somewhere on a webtutorial that we can use only a single Image for hover effects in css. For Eg. I Need to input only this image in CSS
So, When the Facebook Icon is not hover we see the dull grey icon, but when someone hovers over the icon, the blue icon is displayed and I need to use only one image file in the CSS for this purpose.
How Can we do that. Also, I would like to know what are these kind of images know as ?
They are called sprites
They allow you to use one image for multiple elements, that can look entirely different
Official Documentation
I made a quick example to do what you required here
<div></div>
div {
background: url('http://i45.tinypic.com/2jee9zo.png');
background-position: -10px -15px;
height: 70px;
width: 70px;
}
div:hover {
background-position: -10px 83px;
}
You can use a CSS sprite. This is a useful tool: http://es.spritegen.website-performance.org/
Further reading: http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_image_sprites.asp
edit: Its called a spirte (sorry added this, cause i forgot to awnser your first question how this was named)
You can do this by positioning your background image as in example from my work down below
This is CSS, btw
input#searchSubmit { height: 34px; width: 36px; background: url('../images/searchSubmit.png') no-repeat; margin: 8px 8px 0 4px; cursor: pointer; border: none; }
input#searchSubmit:hover { background-position: 0px -34px; }
As you see, as I hover over the searchSubmit , it will change the background position of the image, pasted on the button, showing instead of the black with red search icon, the red with white search icon.
site is here, so you can see it in action, all my action buttons are made this way btw.

I'm trying to add a heathered image to hex color buttons for T-Shirts I'm selling. They're plain colors right now, but for some of the shirts, I want them to have an overlay showing the pattern. How can I add an image to specific buttons (since not all shirts are heathered) and set an opacity for that image? Here's my code right now. I found a good example of how I want it to look online for you to see what I mean. You can check it out here: Heathered Color Swatch Overlay Example.
Here's my code I currently have:
$colors: (
'color-Navy' #2D2F3C,
'color-Ash' #EEF0F2,
'color-Black' #060606,
'color-White' #F6F6F6,
'color-Charcoal' #59545A,
);
#each $color in $colors {
$colorName: nth($color, 1);
$bgColor: nth($color, 2);
#ProductSelect-option-#{$colorName} + label {
background-color: $bgColor;
color: $bgColor;
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
overflow: hidden;
border-radius: 25px;
margin: 5px;
text-indent: 100%;
white-space: nowrap;
}
#ProductSelect-option-#{$colorName}:checked + label {
border-color: #555;
border-width: 3px;
}
}
If I understand what you're asking, you want an image to overlay the colored background of each button that will convey whether a shirt is heathered.
If I got all of that right I think what you're looking for is the CSS background-image property, but you'll need to choose an image format that supports transparency like .gif or .png
Then open your shirt-shaped image in an image editor and use the eraser tool to scrub the edges or whatever until it looks sufficiently heathered for your liking and then add it to your project and set it as the background-image of each button.

As a wrote in the subject I'm going crazy for remove the disc from the custom icon on my JQM APP.
I've tried some solution found on the web but nothing is working.
This is a demo where on the left I got my home custom icon with disc and on the right the native home icon without disc:
http://jsfiddle.net/5nBVa/
This is the code I use:
.ui-icon-myhome:after {
background-image: url("http://www.mywine.info/images/theme/home.png");
/* Make your icon fit */
background-size: 24px 24px;
background-color: transparent;
-moz-border-radius: 0px;
-webkit-border-radius:0px;
border-radius:0px;
}
Anyone can show me the way to remove it?
Thanks
If I understand what you want, you just need to set the background-color of the link to transparent:
.ui-icon-myhome{
background-color: transparent !important;
}
Here is your updated FIDDLE
UPDATE: OP wants image to fill the circular button and be the same size as a standard icon button with disc.
The icon is actually on the anchor tag's :after. Making the background-size, the width and height the same size as the button will cause the image to take up the whole button space. Adjust the margin-top and margin-left to keep the image centered within the button:
.ui-icon-myhome:after {
background-image: url("http://www.mywine.info/images/theme/home.png");
/* Make your icon fit */
background-size: 32px 32px;
background-color: transparent;
-moz-border-radius: 0px;
-webkit-border-radius:0px;
border-radius:0px;
width: 32px !important;
height: 32px !important;
margin-top: -15px !important;
margin-left: -15px !important;
}
Updated DEMO
Not sure what you're trying to do, but have you tried adding class="ui-nodisc-icon" ?

Those of you who have seen google plus may know what Im taking about...
Essentially my problem is this. I would like to have a circle with radius for example of some number of pixels with text in the center. On mouseover, the outline of the circle expands by whatever it was plus 5. When I mouse out, the circle gradually shrinks back to its original size. If the text in the middle of the circle is clicked then an alert box of some sort pops up.
What is a good way to do this and how? Does it involve div tags?
Use CSS3 border-radius to create your circle and some JS to do the animations...or you could try to do them with CSS3 as well.
http://jsfiddle.net/DOSBeats/cE6Yb/
This version uses JS.
Here is the CSS code they use:
.eswd {
background: url("/images/experiments/nav_logo78.png") repeat scroll 0 -243px transparent;
}
.esw {
background-repeat: no-repeat;
border: 0 none;
cursor: pointer;
display: inline;
height: 15px;
margin-left: 5px;
overflow: hidden;
vertical-align: 6px;
width: 24px;
}
HTML:
<button g:pingback="/gen_204?atyp=i&ct=plusone&cad=S0" title="Recommend this page" g:undo="poS0" g:type="plusone" g:entity="http://anewyorkthing.com/" onmouseover="window.gbar&&gbar.pw&&gbar.pw.hvr(this,google.time())" onclick="window.gbar&&gbar.pw&&gbar.pw.clk(this)" class="esw eswd" style="" id="gbpwm_0"></button>
I'm trying to get various locations to appear on a image with mouseovers. So basically I have an image and when you hover over a link nearby a hoverbox appears at the location specified in CSS on the image. However I'm trying to get it to happen with multiple links without creating code for each CSS box.
I have something like 50 links and and when I hover over one I want to be able to pull from a db or text file to grab the location where it should create a hover on the image. My original thought was using PHP to help pull in the information from a file, put it into an array and then having the CSS update on the fly. This seems doable if the user just clicks the link as then I can tell CSS what place in the array to look for the location. I am unsure how I could get this to work with mouseovers if at all possible.
The CSS code is very basic at the moment as shown below.
#box {
position: absolute;
top: 100px;
left: 200px;
background-color: #ffffff;}
Let me know if anything doesn't make sense or if I'm just forgetting something.
Thank you!
Ok, so what you're trying to do is called a CSS sprite. Here's what you want (my example is orthogonal to your code, but teaches the principle):
.link {
width: 50px;
heigh: 50px;
float: left;
text-indent: -9000px;
background-color: transparent;
background-image: url(path/to/sprite.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
.link#one {
background-position: 0px 0px; /* This one is top left on the image. */
}
.link#two {
background-position: 0px 50px; /* This one is 50px from top and 0px from left on the image. */
}
You can see where to go from here (and you don't need to use .link#one. I just used it for example purposes. You could just use #one, or even a class .one.
Practice with this and you'll get how it works soon enough. Here's some sample HTML:
<a id="one" class="link">One</a>
<a id="two" class="link">Two</a>
Just through all that together, and make your image a 100px tall by 50px wide .png file with 50px x 50px for each link.
I wrote some CSS in my HTML code to create rollover buttons. Then i tried to run it with IE 7 and surprise! it doesn't run. In fact it shows both the button and underlying rollover. How can i get around IE's inability to cache background images? Preferably using CSS but javascript 'will' be tried.
Sample CSS:
#Menu
{
width: 100%;
height: 32px;
margin-top: 93px;
padding-left: 13px;
}
#Menu a
{
height: 32px;
line-height: 32px;
width: 123px;
background: url("img/menu.png") top left no-repeat;
background-position: -123px 0;
float: left;
margin-left: 3px;
text-decoration: none;
color: #1e1e1d;
font-size: 12px;
text-align: center;
}
#Top #Menu a:hover, #Top #Menu a.active
{
background-position: 0px 0;
text-decoration: underline;
}
Well firstly you are giving conflicting instructions ...
background: url("img/menu.png") top left no-repeat;
background-position: -123px 0;
... the background is already positioned using shorthand.
I assume that your regular and hover states both share the same image, so why not do both with shorthand? Remove...
background-position: -123px 0;
... and for your hover and active states, use ...
background-position: bottom left;
Then have both your states in one image, one below the other (which I assume is what you've been trying anyway).
Image rollover issue comes mainly because of downloading image every time on hovering a link or tab. This flicker is caused by the delay when the primary image is removed and the rollover image is loaded (even though they are technically the same image, Internet Explorer prefers to treat them separately).
check it out complete fix for rollover issue:
http://faqspoint.blogspot.com/2011/12/ie-rollover-problem.html
if you are using the :hover pseudo-selector, then it won't work in IE unless it is an anchor tag. Try changing the button into an anchor. You can still make it look like a button using css.
If you want to use javascript, then have a look at jQuery.
Try making sure your CSS background syntax is correct. Some browsers let you specify the properties in any order however IE will choke. You should specify the attachment in the form X Y (horizontal then vertical). You currently have top left. Make it left top. Also you have no-repeat at the end of the line, it should come just after the url declaration and before the position declaration.
The order for CSS background shorthand values should be:
background-color
background-image
background-repeat
background-position
background-attachment
eg. background: #fff url(example.jpg) no-repeat left top fixed;
