Awesome Foundation6 Checkbox

Font Awesome Foundation 6 Checkboxes & Radios plugin. Pure CSS way to make inputs look prettier. No Javascript!

Demo

Use

First just include awesome-foundation-checkbox.css somewhere in your HTML, or add the equivalent files to your Sass configuration.

<form role="form">
  ...
  <div class="checkbox">
    <label>
      <input type="checkbox"> Check me out
    </label>
  </div>
  ...
</form>

We have to alter it a bit:

<form role="form">
  ...
  <div class="checkbox">
    <input type="checkbox" id="checkbox1">
    <label for="checkbox1">
        Check me out
    </label>
  </div>
  ...
</form>

That's it. It will work. But it will not work if you nest input inside label or put label before input.

If you want to enable Opera 12 and earlier support just add class styled to input element:

...
<input type="checkbox" id="checkbox1" class="styled">
...

Browser support

• Firefox (3.6+)
• Chrome (14+)
• IE (9+)
• Opera (11.6+)
• Safari (6+)

Radios

It's the same for radios. Markup has to be the following:

<form role="form">
  ...
  <div class="radio">
      <input type="radio" name="radio2" id="radio3" value="option1">
      <label for="radio3">
          One
      </label>
  </div>
  <div class="radio">
      <input type="radio" name="radio2" id="radio4" value="option2" checked>
      <label for="radio4">
          Two
      </label>
  </div>
  ...
</form>

Brand Colors and other features

You may use primary, alert, secondary, etc to style checkboxes and radios with base foundation colors.

checkbox-circle is for rounded checkboxes.

Inputs without label text:

<div class="checkbox">
  <input type="checkbox" class="styled" id="singleCheckbox1" value="option1" aria-label="Single checkbox One">
  <label></label>
</div>

Using Sass

As per example in the demo folder, to use Font Awesome you'll have to @import the following library parts:

@import "../bower_components/foundation-sites/assets/foundation";
@import "../bower_components/font-awesome/scss/variables";

@import "../awesome-foundation6-checkbox";

Adjust this to the path where your foundation and font-awesome files are located.
