I wanted to use a .png image, with transparent background, as a link on my website.
I tried with this html:
<a href="index.html">
<img border="0" src="smiley.png" alt="smiley" width="150" height="150">
</a>
and this css :
a
{
text-decoration: none;
color: inherit;
}
However, the image is still clickable on the transparent background of my image.
Here is the illustration of what I am trying to get :
***Note: This picture is for illustration only. I am 100% sure that my picture has transparent background.*
How can I use my image as a link whenever the cursor is on the smiley face only (visible part) ?
For this particular image, you could use an image map with a circle as the active area.
<map id="ImgMap0" name="ImgMap0">
<area alt="" coords="30, 32, 30" href="http://www.link.com" shape="circle" />
</map>
<img src="http://placehold.it/64x64" alt="" usemap="#ImgMap0"/>
Use the css-attribute border-radius: 50%;
to curve sides (If image is circular)
Try like this, mapping technique
<map name="imgmap">
<area shape="smiley" coords="x,y,radius" href="link.html" alt="img_alt">
</map>
You could also use css3. I found this article with details and a good example
I did not 'hardly' test this out, but you can give it a try.
CSS
.circle {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #CCCCCC;
/* some cross-browser css missing for border-radius */
border-radius: 100px 100px 100px 100px;
color: #FFFFFF;
display: block;
float: left;
font-size: 20px;
height: 200px;
line-height: 200px;
margin-right: 30px;
text-align: center;
width: 200px;
}
.circle-border {
background: none repeat scroll 0 0 #CCCCCC;
border: 1px solid #999999;
/* some cross-browser css missing for border-radius */
border-radius: 100px 100px 100px 100px;
color: #FFFFFF;
display: block;
float: left;
font-size: 20px;
height: 199px;
line-height: 200px;
margin-right: 30px;
text-align: center;
width: 199px;
}
HTML
<a href="#" class="circle">BUTTON</a>
<hr style="clear:both;float:left;height:1px;width:100%;" />
<a href="#" class="circle-border">BUTTON</a>
You don't have to use an image map. I tried it with 2 <div>
s and it worked. Just put the smiley and a <div>
with the attribute onclick="window.open('yoururl')"
in a main <div>
. Make both <div>
s round and invisible.
HTML:
<div id="maindiv">
<img src="smiley.png" alt="" id="smiley"/>
<div id="LinkArea" onclick="window.open('https://google.com')"></div>
</div>
CSS:
#maindiv {
height: 150px;
width: 150px;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0);
border-radius: 100%;
z-index: 2;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
#smiley {
height: 150px;
width: 150px;
z-index: 1;
}
#LinkArea {
height: 150px;
width: 150px;
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0);
border-radius: 100%;
cursor: pointer;
z-index: 3;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
}
