How To Style Loading Buttons
Step 1) Add HTML:
Add an icon library, such as Font Awesome, and append icons to HTML buttons:
Example
<!-- Add icon library -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/4.7.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">
<!-- Add font awesome icons to buttons (note that the fa-spin class
rotates the icon) -->
<button class="buttonload">
<i class="fa fa-spinner fa-spin"></i>Loading
</button>
<button class="buttonload">
<i class="fa fa-circle-o-notch
fa-spin"></i>Loading
</button>
<button class="buttonload">
<i
class="fa fa-refresh fa-spin"></i>Loading
</button>
Step 2) Add CSS:
Example
/* Style buttons */
.buttonload {
background-color: #4CAF50; /* Green background */
border: none; /* Remove borders */
color: white; /*
White text */
padding: 12px 16px; /* Some padding */
font-size: 16px /* Set a font size */
}
