How to create Text Buttons using CSS ?

In this article, we are going to see how to create text buttons using CSS.

The text button is a button that appears to be text but acts as a button if we press it. Text buttons are different from anchor tags even if they might look similar. To create text buttons first, we create simple buttons in HTML using a button tag. After creating the button we apply CSS and change its properties to make it look like a text button. To make it look like a text button we remove its default border and background. To identify that it is a button we give hover color so, when we move our cursor over it, it changes its color from transparent to green.

Syntax:

#textButton{
 background:none; 
 border:none; 
}
#textButton:hover{
 background-color: green;
}

Example: The following demonstrates the above approach. We created an HTML file, and we created a button with the name "GeeksforGeeks" using a button tag with id as "textButton". After that, we created a style tag in which we selected that button using its id and removed its background and border properties by setting them to none. We added a hover background color so that users can identify our button.
