Is there any way to create an arrow like that in the following button, using CSS?
I know how to create triangle-like arrows like this
#triangle_arrow {
top: 3pt;
content: "";
display: inline-block;
width: 0.5em;
height: 0.5em;
border-right: 0.1em solid black;
border-top: 0.1em solid black;
transform: rotate(45deg);
}
but that line towards the arrow's corner is confusing me!
Already there is way through which you could achieve this i.e. suggested by James, but you could even do this using pseudo selectors
or using pre-defined icons using font awesome
to get an arrow icon next to some tag, as below.
Solution 1:
#box{
width:100px;
height:50px;
background:blue;
position:relative;
}
#box:before{
top: 20px;
right:10px;
content: "";
display: inline-block;
width: 0.5em;
height: 0.5em;
border-right: 0.1em solid white;
border-top: 0.1em solid white;
transform: rotate(45deg);
position:absolute;
}
#box > p:after{
content:'';
width:20px;
height:1px;
background:white;
right:10px;
top:24px;
position:absolute;
}
#box > p{
font-size:24px;
color:#fff;
padding:10px;
box-sizing:border-box;
}
<div id="box">
<p>Next</p>
</div>
Solution 2 :
#box{
width:100px;
height:50px;
background:blue;
position:relative;
}
#box > p{
font-size:24px;
color:#fff;
padding:10px;
box-sizing:border-box;
}
#box > p > .fa{
color:#fff;
font-size:16px;
}

<div id="box">
<p>Next <i class="fa fa-arrow-right"></i></p>
</div>
