CSS Overflow: Hidden Bottom Field Creation
When I add
overflow:hidden
for any of the buttons on my page, it creates a 13px margin at the bottom of the button. When I remove the above CSS the margin disappears, however some content inside the button overflows.
How to remove the edge at the bottom while keeping
overflow:hidden
CSS style?
WITH overflow:hidden
WITHOUT overflow:hidden
however, the Facebook logo overflows into the next button (this is a custom font)
CURRENT BUTTON CSS:
.btn {
background-color: #FF6347;
border: 1px solid #CC4F39;
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 7px 15px;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 1em;
text-shadow: 0 1px 2px #000000;
display: inline-block;
overflow: hidden;
}
CURRENT BUTTON HTML:
<a class="btn btn-fb btn-xl" id="login_fb"><span class="icon-socialfacebookvariant"></span>Log In</a>
CURRENT FACEBOOK LOGO CSS:
[class^="icon-"], [class*=" icon-"] {
overflow:hidden;
}
[class^="icon-"]:before, [class*=" icon-"]:before {
-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
-moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
font-size:2em;
line-height:0;
font-family: 'icomoon';
position:relative;
top:-1px;
speak: none;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: normal;
font-variant: normal;
text-transform: none;
vertical-align:middle;
}
// Facebook logo from a font
.icon-socialfacebookvariant:before {
content: "\e9e3";
}

This is because there is white spacing between HTML elements. This snippet with white spacing:
.btn {
background-color: #FF6347;
border: 1px solid #CC4F39;
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 7px 15px;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 1em;
text-shadow: 0 1px 2px #000000;
display: inline-block;
overflow: hidden;
}
<div class="btn"></div>
<div class="btn"></div>
<div class="btn"></div>
<div class="btn"></div>
<div class="btn"></div>
And this is without:
.btn {
background-color: #FF6347;
border: 1px solid #CC4F39;
color: #FFFFFF;
text-decoration: none;
padding: 7px 15px;
cursor: pointer;
font-size: 1em;
text-shadow: 0 1px 2px #000000;
display: inline-block;
overflow: hidden;
}
<div class="btn"></div><div class="btn"></div><div class="btn"></div><div class="btn"></div><div class="btn"></div>
There is a noticeable difference, and I believe this is where your mysterious stock comes from.
