Footer consisting of two right triangles


I'm making a website and I want the footer to look like this: https://i.sstatic.net/E9sFc.jpg

It's basically two triangles on top of each other. I've tried to make triangles like this:

#triangle-bottomleft {
width: 0;
height: 0;
border-bottom: 100px solid red;
border-right: 100px solid transparent;
}    

But because the width depends on how many pixels you put in the border-right, I cannot use width: 100%.

Any Alternatives? Thanks in Advance


Solution

  • You can easily achieve this with gradients:

    .footer {
      height:100px;
      background:
       linear-gradient(to bottom right,transparent 49.5%,blue 50%),
       linear-gradient(to bottom left,transparent 49.5%,green 50%);
    }
    <div class="footer">
    </div>

    You can also adjust the size if you don't want the triangle to be full width:

    .footer {
      height:100px;
      background:
       linear-gradient(to bottom right,transparent 49.5%,blue 50%) right/80% 100% no-repeat,
       linear-gradient(to bottom left,transparent 49.5%,green 50%) left/80% 100% no-repeat;
    }
    <div class="footer">
    </div>
