CSS3 User Interface
CSS3 has new user interface features such as resizing elements, outlines, and box sizing.
In this chapter you will learn about the following user interface properties:
resize
outline-offset
Browser Support
The numbers in the table specify the first browser version that fully supports the property.
Numbers followed by -webkit- or -moz- specify the first version that worked with a prefix.
Property | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
resize | Not supported | 4.0 | 5.0 4.0 -moz- | 4.0 | 15.0 |
outline-offset | Not supported | 4.0 | 5.0 4.0 -moz- | 4.0 | 9.5 |
CSS3 Resizing
The
resize
property specifies whether or not an element should be resizable by the user.
This div element is resizable by the user (works in Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Opera).
The following example lets the user resize only the width of a <div> element:
div {
resize: horizontal;
overflow: auto;
}
resize: horizontal;
overflow: auto;
}
The following example lets the user resize only the height of a <div> element:
div {
resize: vertical;
overflow: auto;
}
resize: vertical;
overflow: auto;
}
The following example lets the user resize both the height and the width of a <div> element:
div {
resize: both;
overflow: auto;
}
resize: both;
overflow: auto;
}
CSS3 Outline Offset
The
outline-offset
property adds space between an outline and the edge or border of an element.
Outlines differ from borders in two ways:
- An outline is a line drawn around elements, outside the border edge
- An outline do not take up space
- An outline may be non-rectangular
This div has an outline 15px outside the border edge.
The following example uses the outline-offset property to add a 15px space between the border and the outline:
div {
border: 1px solid black;
outline: 1px solid red;
outline-offset: 15px;
}
border: 1px solid black;
outline: 1px solid red;
outline-offset: 15px;
}
