[CSS tip] Like those neat, flat buttons? · **Released**: 10-10-2005

This is not a style, just some CSS definitions to make input boxes, dropdowns and buttons have this neat, flat, modern look like they do in IPB. If this is considered a template modification (I don't think so as you don't edit any templates) then mods, feel free to move it to the appropriate subforum.

Fistly go to Styles & Templates>Style Manager>Main CSS.

1. Buttons

Go to the CSS settings group Buttons and add this code to Extra CSS attributes:
Code:
border-color: #ΧΧΧΧΧΧ;
border-style:solid;
border-width:1px;
padding:2px;
margin: 2px;
Substitute the #XXXXXX above with the border color you want them to have.
Finally, add to the field Background the background color you want the button to have.That's it! You're done!

2. Input fields

Go to the CSS settings group Input fields and add this code to Extra CSS attributes:
Code:
border-color: #ΧΧΧΧΧΧ;
border-style:solid;
border-width:1px;
padding:2px;
margin: 2px;
Substitute the #XXXXXX above with the border color you want them to have.
Finally, add to the field Background the background color you want the input field to have.That's it! You're done!

3. Drop-downs

Go to the CSS settings group <select> Menus and add this code to Extra CSS attributes:
Code:
border-color: #ΧΧΧΧΧΧ;
border-style:solid;
border-width:1px;
padding:2px;
margin: 2px;
Substitute the #XXXXXX above with the border color you want them to have.
Finally, add to the field Background the background color you want the dropdown to have.That's it! You're done!

Chances are this works with 3.0.x as well

Very nice! I love IPB's modern and professional look, but not necessarily its software. This is the best of both worlds.

Thanks a lot Quillz!

Wow, 10 installs! My first hack got a big fat zero (it has only 1 install which is mine) , so 10 looks quite a lot to me

Much appreciated.

Just a note, you can add a background color option as well:

border-color: #xxxxxx;
background-color: #xxxxxx;
border-style:solid;
border-width:1px;
padding:2px;
margin: 2px;

Why would you? vBulletin has already a field for background color which does this exact thing
