CSS - Text Replace

[Klee Seubi, modificado hace 11 años.]

Hello everybody,

does anyone of you know a CSS code for replacing "text"?

I'm using LR 6.0 and on one page I want to rewrite the text of a tab.

Hope you can help me.

With kind regards,

Hi Klee,

I think using css, it is not possible to replace the text. Generally in this scenarios javascript like jQuery is used as below.

$('.someClassName').text('new text');

But using css, it is possible to add the new content, before or after the old content like...

.someClassName:after {
content: "new content";
}

Hope it may help you.

CSS is just a stylesheet to specify how an element should appear. It doesn't put or change an element.
That is, you can't replace "text" using css.

Are you trying to replace a string "text" that appears on a page?

Hello everybody,

thanks for the useful info (text before and after).

@ Hitoshi: what do you mean with "string" text?

The only kind of change in text (from the original one) using CSS is the text transform property, as

h1 {text-transform:uppercase;}
h2 {text-transform:capitalize;}
p {text-transform:lowercase;}

Thanks and Regards,

There is one possibility in CSS 3, but it relies on the user having a browser that supports the feature, and you'd have to get the CSS onto the page.
