Close button
A generic close button for dismissing content like modals and alerts.
Example
Provide an option to dismiss or close a component with .btn-close
. Default styling is limited, but highly customizable. Modify the Sass variables to replace the default mask-image
. Be sure to include text for screen readers, as we’ve done with <span class="visually-hidden">
.
<button type="button" class="btn-close"><span class="visually-hidden">Close</span></button>
Disabled state
Disabled close buttons change their color
. We’ve also applied pointer-events: none
and user-select: none
to preventing hover and active states from triggering.
<button type="button" class="btn-close" disabled><span class="visually-hidden">Close</span></button>
Dark variant
Add .btn-close-white
to the .btn-close
for a dark variant.
<button type="button" class="btn-close btn-close-white"><span class="visually-hidden">Close</span></button>
<button type="button" class="btn-close btn-close-white" disabled><span class="visually-hidden">Close</span></button>
Without specific class
Close buttons can also be created without .btn-close
to reduce the size of your CSS bundle.
<button type="button" class="btn btn-icon btn-no-outline">
<svg width="1.5rem" height="1.5rem" fill="currentColor" aria-hidden="true" focusable="false"><use xlink:href="/innovation-cup/docs/0.2/assets/img/boosted-sprite.svg#delete"></use></svg>
<span class="visually-hidden">Close</span>
</button>
<button type="button" class="btn btn-icon btn-no-outline" disabled>
<svg width="1.5rem" height="1.5rem" fill="currentColor" aria-hidden="true" focusable="false"><use xlink:href="/innovation-cup/docs/0.2/assets/img/boosted-sprite.svg#delete"></use></svg>
<span class="visually-hidden">Close</span>
</button>
CSS
Variables
As part of Boosted Innovation Cup’s evolving CSS variables approach, close buttons now use local CSS variables on .btn-close
for enhanced real-time customization. Values for the CSS variables are set via Sass, so Sass customization is still supported, too.
--#{$prefix}btn-close-padding: #{$btn-close-padding}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-border-width: #{$btn-close-border-width}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-color: #{$btn-close-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-bg: #{$btn-close-bg}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-border-color: #{$btn-close-border-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-hover-color: #{$btn-close-hover-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-active-color: #{$btn-close-active-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-active-border-color: #{$btn-close-active-border-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-disabled-color: #{$btn-close-disabled-color}; // Boosted mod
Customization through CSS variables can be seen on the .btn-close-white
modifier class where we override specific values without adding duplicate CSS selectors.
--#{$prefix}btn-close-color: #{$btn-close-white-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-bg: #{$btn-close-white-bg}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-border-color: #{$btn-close-white-border-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-hover-color: #{$btn-close-white-hover-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-active-color: #{$btn-close-white-active-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-active-border-color: #{$btn-close-white-active-border-color}; // Boosted mod
--#{$prefix}btn-close-disabled-color: #{$btn-close-white-disabled-color}; // Boosted mod
