To Create Fancy Animated Buttons It Takes Only Two Steps:-
- Make a HTML file and define markup
- Make a CSS file and define styling
Step 1. Make a HTML file and define markup
We make a HTML file and save it with a name buttons.html
<html> <head> <link href="buttons_style.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet"/> </head> <body> <div id="wrapper"> <div id="button_div"> <input type="button" class="simple" value="Simple"> <input type="button" class="zoom" value="Zoom"> <input type="button" class="round" value="Round"> <input type="button" class="border" value="Border"> <input type="button" class="box" value="Box"> <br> <input type="button" class="shadow" value="Shadow"> <input type="button" class="vertical" value="Vertical"> <input type="button" class="horizontal" value="Horizontal"> <input type="button" class="shake" value="Shake"> <br> <input type="button" class="shrink" value="Shrink"> <input type="button" class="bounce" value="Bounce"> </div> </div> </body> </html>
In this step we create 11 buttons to display 11 different type of animated buttons we add our 'buttons_style.css' file which we were going to create in next step.
