在线性渐变的情况下隐藏重叠的文本失败

Question

i was trying the code shown in this fiddle:

http://jsfiddle.net/2aWcV/

how to remove the overlap if "$number" can have any number of digits and we dont know its size as the number of digits is fetched from some other file.($number is a random number generated) $number must have an opaque background so that the text underneath it doesn't show through.(text must be to the left of $number

The html code is:

<div class="body">     
    <div class="variation font700 green"> 
        <h2> 
            overflown text must be hidden and the visible text  must be in single line
            <span class="divider"> 
                $number 
            </span>
        </h2>
    </div>
    <div class="clear"></div>  
</div>

And this works perfectly fine when we have a background as a single color rather than a gradient why is that so and here is the link to the fiddle with background as a single color: http://jsfiddle.net/Re9ZN/ Can someone give me a solution so that it works well when we have a gradient.

Following code should do the trick for you.

Change to this in your css class:

.variation h2 span{
    background: linear-gradient(to left, #339933,#003300);
    position:absolute;
    right:0;

}

For your comment EDIT 1

You can use below code, please update colors as per your need. It covers all the browsers.

 background-color: #F07575; /* fallback color if gradients are not supported */
  background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, hsl(0, 80%, 70%), #bada55); /* For Chrome and Safari */
  background-image:    -moz-linear-gradient(top, hsl(0, 80%, 70%), #bada55); /* For old Fx (3.6 to 15) */
  background-image:     -ms-linear-gradient(top, hsl(0, 80%, 70%), #bada55); /* For pre-releases of IE 10*/
  background-image:      -o-linear-gradient(top, hsl(0, 80%, 70%), #bada55); /* For old Opera (11.1 to 12.0) */ 
  background-image:         linear-gradient(to bottom, hsl(0, 80%, 70%), #bada55); /* Standard syntax; must be last */

NOTE: Answers can not expected the way you desired, it should be considered as "to get you started."

This below image is max I can help you out as far as gradient goes. As sections are divided, I don't think with current implementation it is possible.

CSS CODE:

background: #7fbf70; /* Old browsers */
