CSS/HTML: Create a glowing border around an Input Field
I want to create some decent inputs for my form, and I would really like to know how TWITTER does their glowing border around their inputs.
Example/Picture of the Twitter border:
I also don't quite know how to create the rounded corners.
Solution 1:
Here you go:
.glowing-border {
border: 2px solid #dadada;
border-radius: 7px;
}
.glowing-border:focus {
outline: none;
border-color: #9ecaed;
box-shadow: 0 0 10px #9ecaed;
}

label {
display:block;
margin:20px;
width:420px;
overflow:auto;
font-family:sans-serif;
font-size:20px;
color:#444;
text-shadow:0 0 2px #ddd;
padding:20px 10px 10px 0;
}
input {
float:right;
width:200px;
border:2px solid #dadada;
border-radius:7px;
font-size:20px;
padding:5px;
margin-top:-10px;
}
input:focus {
outline:none;
border-color:#9ecaed;
box-shadow:0 0 10px #9ecaed;
}
<label> Aktuelles Passwort: <input type="password"> </label>
<label> Neues Passwort: <input type="password"> </label>
Solution 2:
How about something like this... http://jsfiddle.net/UnsungHero97/Qwpq4/1207/
CSS
input {
border: 1px solid #4195fc; /* some kind of blue border */
/* other CSS styles */
/* round the corners */
-webkit-border-radius: 4px;
-moz-border-radius: 4px;
border-radius: 4px;
/* make it glow! */
-webkit-box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px #4195fc;
-moz-box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px #4195fc;
box-shadow: 0px 0px 4px #4195fc; /* some variation of blue for the shadow */
}
Solution 3:
Use a normal blue border
, a medium border-radius
, and a blue box-shadow
with position 0 0
.
