Html Button With Search Icon?

Post a Comment
I'm trying to create a search button containing nothing but the magnifying glass search icon. Code is below

Solution 1:

You may use icons from Glyphicons or Font-Awesome, which are useful for icon design usage.

Here's an example, using glyphicon's search icon

<buttonclass="icon"><iclass="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></i></button>

Or using Font Awesome's search icon

<buttonclass="icon"><iclass="fa fa-search"></i></button>

Solution 2:

is that what you are looking for http://jsfiddle.net/cancerian73/t2FJb/

<div class="search-bar">
<inputtype="text"class="sfield" name="searchterm" maxlength="30" value="Search...">
<inputtype="image"class="searchbutton" name="search" src="http://www.spheretekk.com/bc/images/search-icon.gif" alt="Search">


.search-bar {
height: 29px;
background-color: #e1e1e1;
-moz-border-radius: 100px;
-webkit-border-radius: 100px;
border-radius: 100px;
position:relative;
width:230px
}
.search-bar.searchbutton {
position:absolute;
top:23%;
right:5px;
}
.sfield {
float: left;
margin: 5px008px;
font: 8pt Verdana;
color: #888;
height: 20px;
line-height: 18px;
padding: 0;
background: transparent;
border: 0;
max-width: 125px
}

Solution 3:

The background shorthand property mentioned by veer might be getting ignored by the browser as "no-repeat" is being written twice. Try writing it this way:

background: url("") no-repeat fixed center;

also check the path you specify in the url. if your images are in a separate folder you may have to add a "../" .

P.S. Although it may not be needed for your case it is good practice to mention the properties like background-position(center in above case). Sometimes otherwise the entire property gets ignored by the browser. I'm not sure however why this happens neither am i sure if this is actually a problem or it was just some other error in my code. Does not happen always but i have faced this issue 2-3 times.

Solution 4:

Well, you are quite right with the CSS. Try this, may this work. I am not sure about it.

<inputtype="button" value=""id="searchButton" />

Add CSS:

#searchButton:
{
    background:url('filepath') no-repeat  no-repeat;
    width: 20px;
    height: 20px;
    border: 0px;
}

Solution 5:

Use FontAwesome Icon library and put <i class="fa fa-search"></i> inside your search button.

* {box-sizing: border-box;}

.form-group {
  display: -webkit-flex;
  -webkit-flex-wrap: wrap;
  display: flex;
  flex-wrap: wrap;
  margin-bottom: 1rem;
}

input {
  flex: 11 auto;
  font-weight: 400;
  height: calc(1.5em + 1rem + 2px);
  padding: .5rem1rem;
  font-size: 1.25rem;
  line-height: 1.5;
  color: #495057;
  background-color: #fff;
  border: 1px solid #ced4da;
  border-radius: .3rem00 .3rem;
  outline: 0;
}

button {
  font-weight: 400;
  color: #ffffff;
  cursor: pointer;
  text-align: center;
  user-select: none;
  border: 1px solid transparent;  
  padding: .5rem1rem;
  font-size: 1.25rem;
  line-height: 1.5;
  border-radius: 0 .3rem .3rem0;
  background-color: #007bff;
  outline: 0;
}
