Flexible CSS typographic scale | The Happy Bit When designing using text, no matter if it’s for print or the Web, one vital thing to do is to ensure that the design stays harmonious in every aspect. The best way to do so is quite possibly using a so called typographic scale, which means giving text portions precise, regular and linear dimensions, based on the hierarchical relationships they hold with other text elements. This has been long known, of course, and we’re not bringing anything new to the cause. But being the Web one of our domains, we felt like managing the typographic scale in CSS could be done better, and in an easier, sort of automatic, way. Our goal was to create a base-level CSS that could set a well thought series of values for the typographic scale, hence establishing a vertical rhythm, with absolutely no reference to pixels. Instead, we wanted it to graciously adapt itself when varying the font size declaration of the document’s body. The scale would degrade as follows, from the biggest element to the smallest:

Stuff you can do with the "Checkbox Hack" The "Checkbox Hack" is where you use a connected label and checkbox input and usually some other element you are trying to control, like this: <label for="toggle-1">Do Something</label><input type="checkbox" id="toggle-1"><div>Control me</div> Then with CSS, you hide the checkbox entirely. View Demo So you can style an element completely differently depending on the state of that checkbox, which you don't even see. Disclaimer: Some of this stuff crosses the line of what you "should" do with CSS and introduces some bad semantics. Custom Designed Radio Buttons and Checkboxes Hide the default UI of a radio button or checkbox, and display a custom version right on top of it. File system like "tree menu" Tabbed Areas The "tabs" design pattern is just toggling on and off of areas, perfect for the checkbox hack.

Waste Creative Numbering In Style Chances are if you want to number things in order on a website, the ordered list (<ol>) is your guy. It also is pretty reasonable that you want to style those numbers. Strangely enough, styling those list numbers isn't a very easy thing to in CSS. But let it be known, applying numbered counters is not limited to ordered lists. You'd have markup like this: <dl class="faq"><dt>How much wood would a wood chuck chuck if a wood chuck could chuck wood? Each new <dt> element is a new question, hence where we should apply the numbering. Style the :before element as you will. Just wanted to make ya'll aware of this ability. Which reminds me: the numbers don't have to be decimals. disc (• • •) circle (○ ○ ○) square (▪ ▪ ▪) decimal (1 2 3) decimal-leading-zero (01, 02, 03) lower-roman (i ii iii) upper-roman (I II III) lower-greek (α β γ) lower-latin (a b c) upper-latin (A B C) armenian (Ա Բ Գ) georgian (ა ბ გ) lower-alpha (a b c) upper-alpha (A B C) content: counter(my-counter, lower-roman); Share On
