How to Customize Checkbox Using CSS?

Hi friends , Being a developer I am learning html, CSS, php & web Development. I am here to enhance my learning on web development through various forums like html developer forum and other web developer communities & want to customize checkbox with the help of CSS. Mostly developers use javascript for customizing the look of the checkboxes but I want to use CSS. I hope any tech developer can help me over here in resolving the issue.

 

HI,

You can use following type of CSS

Code:

input[type=checkbox] {
display: none;
}
.checkbox label:before {
border-radius: 3px;
}
input[type=checkbox]:checked + label:before {
content: "\2713";
text-shadow: 1px 1px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, .2);
font-size: 15px;
color: #f3f3f3;
text-align: center;
line-height: 15px;
}

Thanks

 

You can use this following type of CSS also:

Code:

[type="checkbox"]:not:)checked),
[type="checkbox"]:checked {
  position: absolute;
  left: -9999px;
}
[type="checkbox"]:not:)checked) + label,
[type="checkbox"]:checked + label {
  position: relative;
  padding-left: 1.95em;
  cursor: pointer;
}

/* checkbox aspect */
[type="checkbox"]:not:)checked) + label:before,
[type="checkbox"]:checked + label:before {
  content: '';
  position: absolute;
  left: 0; top: 0;
  width: 1.25em; height: 1.25em;
  border: 2px solid #ccc;
  background: #fff;
  border-radius: 4px;
  box-shadow: inset 0 1px 3px rgba(0,0,0,.1);
}
/* checked mark aspect */
[type="checkbox"]:not:)checked) + label:after,
[type="checkbox"]:checked + label:after {
  content: '✔';
  position: absolute;
  top: .1em; left: .3em;
  font-size: 1.3em;
  line-height: 0.8;
  color: #09ad7e;
  transition: all .2s;
}
/* checked mark aspect changes */
[type="checkbox"]:not:)checked) + label:after {
  opacity: 0;
  transform: scale(0);
}
[type="checkbox"]:checked + label:after {
  opacity: 1;
  transform: scale(1);
}
/* disabled checkbox */
[type="checkbox"]:disabled:not:)checked) + label:before,
[type="checkbox"]:disabled:checked + label:before {
  box-shadow: none;
  border-color: #bbb;
  background-color: #ddd;
}
[type="checkbox"]:disabled:checked + label:after {
  color: #999;
}
[type="checkbox"]:disabled + label {
  color: #aaa;
}
/* accessibility */
[type="checkbox"]:checked:focus + label:before,
[type="checkbox"]:not:)checked):focus + label:before {
  border: 2px dotted blue;
}

/* hover style just for information */
label:hover:before {
  border: 2px solid #4778d9!important;
}

/* Useless styles, just for demo design */
