Position | Values
For example, <ul id="GMapsMarkerUL" style="list-style-type: none;"></ul> |
Style | Values
|
Background Color | Background Color Example: #EAEAEA As for gradient in my example, I've got it from internet sites. When you specify background color #E6E6E6, I add into style line background: #E6E6E6 I've got this example background: #fefcea; /* For old browsers */ background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); /* Firefox 3.6+ */ /* Chrome 1-9, Safari 4-5 */ background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,#fefcea), color-stop(100%,#f1da36)); /* Chrome 10+, Safari 5.1+ */ background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); /* Opera 11.10+ */ background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); /* IE10 */ background: linear-gradient(top, #fefcea, #f1da36); /* CSS3 */ padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #333;
And after all this is mine code #E6E6E6; /* For old browsers */ background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); /* Firefox 3.6+ */ /* Chrome 1-9, Safari 4-5 */ background: -webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,#E6E6E6), color-stop(100%,#AAAAAA)); /* Chrome 10+, Safari 5.1+ */ background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); /* Opera 11.10+ */ background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); /* IE10 */ background: linear-gradient(top, #E6E6E6, #AAAAAA); /* CSS3 */ padding: 10px; border: 1px solid #333; I note that in IE9 there is no gradient. But it is not task to do it in my component by CSS. In any case you can do it by image and applying for class. |
