Cut ONE Corner of div Using CSS

When we want to create the div with one edge is cut with the help of only CSS, following code does that.

HTML Code:

<div></div>


CSS Code:

div {
    height: 300px;
    background: red;
    position: relative;
}

div:before {
    content: '';
    position: absolute;
    top: 0; right: 0;
    border-top: 80px solid white;
    border-left: 80px solid red;
    width: 0;
}

Above example shows the corner at top left of div.

We can have any corner cut by little tweaking above code.

Example:

div {
    height: 300px;
    background: red;
    position: relative;
}

div:before {
    content: '';
    position: absolute;
    top: 220px; right: 0;
    border-bottom: 80px solid white;
    border-left: 80px solid red;
    width: 0;
}

Above code show the corner at bottom of the div.

CSS Equal Height Columns, Three Different Ways

Image
Here, we look at three different ways to achieve equal height columns with just CSS. This is a common scenario that troubles a lot of people, so I’m going to demonstrate some elegant pure CSS solutions. Achieving equal height columns with just CSS is such a common scenario with a few simple solutions. In projects that follow a standard content-sidebar layout, it just helps to have both of the containers seemingly stretch to the bottom of the page. It just looks better, cleaner, and more complete. I’m going to highlight three different ways that this can be achieved, using strictly CSS. No JavaScript, no jQuery to calculate the height of one and set it on the other. Just plain old beautiful CSS. First, let’s look at some graphics below that show us the problem and the desired solution. The Problem The Solution Diving In It’s common for designs/developers to want to achieve this look just purely for aesthetic purposes. It often finishes the page nicer, and makes ever...

The Simplest Way To Center Elements Vertically And Horizontally

Flexbox is a relatively new addition to the CSS world and we keep finding more and more excellent applications for it.

It is easier than you can imagine – it is only three lines of code, doesn’t require you to specify the size of the centered element and is responsive-friendly! This technique works in all modern browsers – IE10+, Chrome, Firefox and Safari (with the -webkit- prefix). See the full compatibility table here . The HTML The idea, of course, revolves around flexbox. First, we create a container in which we want everything to be centered: <div class="container"> <h3> All content in here will be centered. </h3> </div> You can place this container div anywhere you want.

Now, it becomes much leaner with the use of CSS3 Gradient Background. But CSS3 Gradient does not stop only for background use. Did you know that you can also utilize it within borders? Let's see how to do this. First Method The first method is by applying CSS3 Gradient within pseudo-elements. Well, let’s see how the trick works. Top To Bottom Gradient Border We will start off with a simple gradient that spreads from top to bottom. To get started, create a box with a div, as follows. HTML <div class="box"></div> CSS .box {       width: 400px;       height: 400px;       background: #eee;   } To form the gradient in the box borders, set a solid border on the top and bottom side of the box first. And also create 2 rectangles ...
