Trevor Gerzen's Blog

I have been looking at Apple’s store for an order I will be placing very soon and I keep seeing these Ask Now buttons. They look nice and CSS-ified, except they’re is this little thing up in the top right corner that has been bugging me.

I looked at Web Inspector in Safari and noticed that the fallback text (presumably for IE) is still visible even though font-size:0; line-height:0; and text-indent:-2000em is set. I noticed it was positioned absolute so I just shrugged it off to the right -10px because overflow:hidden is set on the containers.

The whole button seems a bit wonky and overkill if it’s trying to look good in all browsers, but I’m also not getting paid to make those decisions. Now, if anyone knows any front-end guys at Apple…
