  background-color: #04AA6D; /* Green */

  border: none;

  color: white;

  padding: 15px 32px;

  text-align: center;

  text-decoration: none;

  display: inline-block;

}

<button class="button button5">Black</button>

Button Sizes

    

Use the font-size property to change the font size of a button:

.button1 {font-size: 10px;}
.button2 {font-size: 12px;}
.button3 {font-size: 16px;}
.button4 {font-size: 20px;}
.button5 {font-size: 24px;}

Use the padding property to change the padding of a button:

    

.button1 {padding: 10px 24px;}
.button2 {padding: 12px 28px;}
.button3 {padding: 14px 40px;}
.button4 {padding: 32px 16px;}
.button5 {padding: 16px;}

Rounded Buttons

    

Use the border-radius property to add rounded corners to a button:

.button1 {border-radius: 2px;}
.button2 {border-radius: 4px;}
.button3 {border-radius: 8px;}
.button4 {border-radius: 12px;}
.button5 {border-radius: 50%;}

Colored Button Borders

    

Use the border property to add a colored border to a button:

.button1 {
  background-color: white;
  color: black;
  border: 2px solid #04AA6D; /* Green */
}


Hoverable Button

Use the :hover selector to change the style of a button when you move the mouse over it.

Tip: Use the transition-duration property to determine the speed of the "hover" effect:

.button {
  transition-duration: 0.4s;
}

.button:hover {
  background-color: #04AA6D; /* Green */
  color: white;
}

Shadow Buttons

 

Use the box-shadow property to add shadows to a button:

.button1 {
  box-shadow: 0 8px 16px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.2), 0 6px 20px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.19);
}

.button2:hover {
  box-shadow: 0 12px 16px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.24), 0 17px 50px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.19);

}

Disabled Buttons

 

Use the opacity property to add transparency to a button (creates a "disabled" look).

Tip: You can also add the cursor property with a value of "not-allowed", which will display a "no parking sign" when you mouse over the button:

.disabled {
  opacity: 0.6;
  cursor: not-allowed;

}

Button Width


 

By default, the size of the button is determined by its text content (as wide as its content). Use the width property to change the width of a button:

.button1 {width: 250px;}
.button2 {width: 50%;}
.button3 {width: 100%;}

Button Groups


Remove margins and add float:left to each button to create a button group:

Bordered Button Group


Use the border property to create a bordered button group:

Vertical Button Group


Use display:block instead of float:left to group the buttons below each other, instead of side by side:
