Images and Other Objects as Links

Written by @m_k_amin 10 December 2012

When we want the user of our site to click on something to open a new page or to do something special, we do not always use buttons or simple text hyperlinks. Sometimes we can use an image or any objects on the site instead of a button. The following code shows how to do it and we can use everything on the site like a button or hyperlink.

Code Snippet:

                                                
                                                <!-- this script is provided by https://www.htmlfreecode.com coded by: Kerixa Inc. -->
                  
                                               
<style>
.table a {
    display: block;
    text-decoration: none;
}

.table {
    margin-top: 20px;
}

.card {
    position: relative;
}

.card h2 a::after {
    content: "";
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    left: 0;
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
}

div {
    display: flex;
    margin-top:20px;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
}

div > * {
    padding: .5em 1em;
    margin: 0 0.5em 1em 0.5em;
    flex: 0 1 20em;
    border: .2em solid rgba(0,0,0,.15);
    border-radius: 1em;
    background-color: #fff;
}

img {
    max-width: 100%;
    height: auto;
}

h3 {
    margin: .2em 0;
    line-height: 1.2;
}

p {
    margin: .2em 0;
}

a:focus, a:hover {
    text-decoration: none;
}

.default a:link {
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #333;
}

.default a:focus h3, .default a:hover h3 {
    color: #00f;
    text-decoration: underline;
}

button {
    font: inherit;
    width: 100%;
    text-align: left;
    background: transparent;
    border: none;
    padding: 0;
    margin: 0;
}

button:focus, button:hover {
    outline: none;
}

button span {
    display: block;
    text-align: center;
    padding: .5em 1em;
    margin: .5em 1em;
    border: .1em solid #00c;
    border-radius: .25em;
    background-color: #00c;
    color: #fff;
}

button:focus span, button:hover span {
    color: #00c;
    background-color: #fff;
}

/* Move the image above the heading */

.reorder {
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
    padding-top: .5em;
}

.reorder img {
    /*  see comment on post  */
    order: -1;
}



.block {
    position: relative;
}

.block a[href]::after, .block button::after {
    content: "";
    display: block;
    position: absolute;
    top: 0;
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    right: 0;
}

.block:hover, .block:focus-within, .default:hover, .default:focus-within {
    border-color: rgba(0,0,255,.5);
    box-shadow: 0 0 .5em rgba(0,0,0,.25);
}

/* Help out IE */

.block a[href]:hover, .block a[href]:focus {
    outline: .4em solid rgba(0,0,255,.25);
    outline-offset: .25em;
}

/* Undo the IE */

.block:hover a[href]:hover, .block:hover a[href]:focus, .block:hover button:focus, .block:hover button:hover, .block:focus-within a[href]:hover, .block:focus-within a[href]:focus, .block:focus-within button:focus, .block:focus-within button:hover {
    outline: none;
}

/* ------------------------------------ */

/* Now with another link in the block thinger */

.block.extracta a[href]::after {
    bottom: 3.75em;
}

.block.extracta p a[href]::after {
    content: none;
}

.block.extracta p a[href] {
    display: block;
    text-align: center;
    margin: 1em 2em 0 2em;
    padding: .5em 1em;
    border: .1em solid #00c;
    border-radius: .25em;
    text-decoration: none;
    color: #fff;
    background-color: #00c;
}

.block.extracta p a[href]:focus, .block.extracta p a[href]:hover {
    color: #00c;
