Hex Icons

-
Hex Icons are so much better than using images for buttons.

In this example I am using the Hex code to illustrate the magnifying glass inline with an input texbox. I have used inline styles so that it is easy to see the styles I applied. The Hex code is the value of the input and shows the icon inline with the texbox to the right.


<div style="background-color: white; height: 30px; width: 258px;">

@Html.TextBox("SearchTerm", null, new { @placeholder = "Enter Search Term", @style="width:220px;" })

<input id="searchBtn" style="border: 0; cursor: pointer; display: inline; height: 100%; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; width: 30px;" type="submit" value="&#x1f50e;" />

</div>




I like this site for finding Hex Icons: http://graphemica.com/

Sticky Footer made simple

-
CSS Footers are simple but people tend to overthink them.  Here is how it works You have two pieces A container that all your other stuff is in A footer that you want to always stay at the bottom of the page In Blazor I put this container on my content pages and not my host page because I didn't want my left hand nav to be involved <div class="container"> All my content </div> <footer> Centered footer content </footer> And the CSS .container {     width:100%;     padding: 0 15px; } footer {     font-size: 12px; (you could also use a vw value here)     padding-top:20px;     background-color: #xxx;     color: #fff;     margin: auto;     height: 60px;     width: 100%;     position: sticky; //absolute;     bottom: 0;     text-align: center; }
