css - How to create a flexible leader line in div after a label field -


<div class="titelcontent"> <div class="name">name</div> <div class="hzline"></div> </div> 

i want name div , hzline div auto fit 100% in titelcontent.

the label (for example, name) vary in length , want red underline span remainding space of titlecontent div.

how achieve following? easy using tables can't figure out how via span or div.

updated allow background images show through

you can make mark-up bit tighter using pseudo-element follows:

<div class="wrapper">     <div class="inner">photoshop</div> </div> 

and use following css styling:

div.wrapper {     color:#82439a;     font-size: 16px;     font-weight: bold;     font-family: tahoma;     line-height: 180%;     background: red url(http://placekitten.com/1000/500) no-repeat left top;     overflow: hidden; }  div.inner {     position: relative;     display: inner;     color: yellow;     padding-right: 0.50em;     border: 1px dotted yellow; }  div.inner:after {     content: "\a0";     position: absolute;     bottom: 0;     left: 100%;     border-bottom: 5px solid #d71d00;         width: 1000%; }

how works

the parent element div.wrapper may contain background image or transparent , show background of ancestor element. need set overflow: hidden.

for label (<div.inner>), set position: relative , generate 100% width pseudo-element bottom border serve underline. use absolute positioning place div.inner:after right of <div.inner> (left: 100%) , make width relatively large. pseudo-element trigger overflow condition taken care of hiding overflow in parent element. can control left/right spacing using padding.

you can use set display property either inline or inline-block. if use display: inline, work in ie7; adjust line height needed styling.

note generated content non-breaking space, hex code "\a0".

support ie7

if need support ie7, need hack if use inline-block discussed in previous question: ie7 not understand display: inline-block

ie7 not support table-cell of other posted solutions face same limitation.
