Styled buttons

This page is related to the article Styling even more form controls. For more info on what the image on this page shows, please read the article. Note that these buttons are <button> elements, not <input type="submit" /> elements.

The following CSS rules were used to style these buttons:

  1. #el01 {color:#00f;}
  2. #el02 {background-color:#ddd;}
  3. #el03 {color:#fff; background-color:#33b;}
  4. #el04 {border-width:4px;}
  5. #el05 {border-color:#00f;}
  6. #el06 {border:0;}
  7. #el07 {font-family:"Courier New", Courier;}
  8. #el08 {font-size:150%;}
  9. #el09 {font-size:10%;}
  10. #el10 {font-weight:bold;}
  11. #el11 {padding:0;}
  12. #el12 {margin:0; text-align:right; width:10em;}

In your current browser, with your current settings, the buttons look like this:
