Button
Easily create nice looking buttons, which come in different styles.
# Usage
To apply this component, add the .uk-button
class and a modifier such as .uk-button-default
to an <a>
or <button>
element. Add the disabled
attribute to a <button>
element to disable the button.
<a class="uk-button uk-button-default" href=""></a>
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default"></button>
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" disabled></button>
<p uk-margin>
<a class="uk-button uk-button-default" href="#">Link</a>
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default">Button</button>
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" disabled>Disabled</button>
</p>
Note If you are displaying a number of buttons in a row, you can add a top margin to them, when they stack on smaller viewports. Just add the uk-margin
attribute from the Margin component to their parent element.

# Button group with dropdowns
Use button groups to split buttons into a standard action on the left and a dropdown toggle on the right. Just wrap the toggling button and the drop or dropdown inside a <div>
element and add the .uk-inline
class from the Utility component.
<!-- A button group with a dropdown -->
<div class="uk-button-group">
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default"></button>
<div class="uk-inline">
<!-- The button toggling the dropdown -->
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button"></button>
<div uk-dropdown="mode: click; target: !.uk-button-group;"></div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="uk-button-group">
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default">Dropdown</button>
<div class="uk-inline">
<button class="uk-button uk-button-default" type="button"><span uk-icon="icon: triangle-down"></span></button>
<div uk-dropdown="mode: click; target: !.uk-button-group;">
<ul class="uk-nav uk-dropdown-nav">
