I am creating a floating label that behaves as if it were a placeholder in the following way:
body {
padding:50px;
}
input[type="text"][required]:focus + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="tel"][required]:focus + label[placeholder]:before,
select[required]:focus + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="password"][required]:focus + label[placeholder]:before
{
color: #3399CC;
}
input[type="text"][required]:focus + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="tel"][required]:focus + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="text"][required]:valid + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="tel"][required]:valid + label[placeholder]:before,
select[required]:focus + label[placeholder]:before,
select[required]:valid + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="password"][required]:focus + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="password"][required]:valid + label[placeholder]:before
{
-webkit-transition-duration: .2s;
transition-duration: .2s;
-webkit-transform: translate(0, -1.5em) scale(0.9, 0.9);
transform: translate(0, -1.5em) scale(0.9, 0.9);
}
input[type="text"][required]:invalid + label[placeholder][alt]:before,
input[type="tel"][required]:invalid + label[placeholder][alt]:before,
select[required]:invalid + label[placeholder][alt]:before,
input[type="password"][required]:invalid + label[placeholder][alt]:before{
content: attr(alt);
}
input[type="text"][required] + label[placeholder],
input[type="tel"][required] + label[placeholder],
select[required] + label[placeholder],
input[type="password"][required] + label[placeholder]{
display: block;
pointer-events: none;
line-height: 1.25em;
margin-top: calc(-1.5em - 2px);
margin-bottom: calc((3em - 1em) + 2px);
font-size: 0.85em;
font-weight: normal;
}
input[type="text"][required] + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="tel"][required] + label[placeholder]:before,
select[required] + label[placeholder]:before,
input[type="password"][required] + label[placeholder]:before{
content: attr(placeholder);
display: inline-block;
margin: 0;
padding: 0 4px;
color: #9C9C9C;
white-space: nowrap;
-webkit-transition: 0.3s ease-in-out;
transition: 0.3s ease-in-out;
background-image: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #fff, #fff);
background-image: linear-gradient(to bottom, #fff, #fff);
background-size: 100% 5px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-position: center;
}
.form-control {
-webkit-appearance: normal;
-moz-appearance: normal;
appearance: normal;
color: #31404d;
box-shadow: none;
border-radius: 0px;
border:none;
border-bottom: 1px solid #31404d;
}
.form-control:focus + .form-control-placeholder{
-webkit-box-shadow:none;
-moz-box-shadow:none;
-o-box-shadow:none;
box-shadow:none;
}
.form-control:focus{
-webkit-box-shadow:none;
box-shadow: none;
}
<input type="text" class="form-control" required>
<label placeholder="Código postal" for="exampleInputPassword1"></label>
<br>
<select class="form-control" name="DATA[SIT_TIPO]" required>
<option value="">Mes</option>
<option value="1">Ene</option>
<option value="2">...</option>
</select>
<label placeholder="Mes" for=""></label>
In my input element works as I wish. The label floats up every time it captures the focus, and once the input is filled with information, it stays up. However, I would like that my select element will not show the label (since it is piled with the options) until when I get the focus and once the option is selected, the label remains up.
In short, I want my select element to have the same behavior as my input element without showing the label until I get the focus.
