[css-d] CSS3 Background-Size

2011-11-28 Thread Elli Vizcaino
Hello CSS Discuss, I thought one could use background-size in CSS3 for boxed element such as an H tag, in place of having to specify a width and height property to the declaration. But it seems you have to specify it any ways, in order for the element to accommodate the actual size of the

I've seen a few ways to do this. Some cleaner than others. As far as I've seen,you don't have much success by adding border and outline to the same element. If you want to avoid having to style an interior element, there's one trick which will work in CSS3 supported browsers: box-shadow: 0

There's another CSS3 trick you can try, but I don't think it has as wide support as the box-shadow trick. You *do* add border and outline, and then apply outline-offset: border: 1px solid #444; outline: 3px solid #444; outline-offset: 3px; /email signature id=paceaux Frank M
