It's not logical, so don't be too hard on yourself. You need to give it a height and change the box-sizing and display:

button
input[type="reset"],
input[type="button"],
input[type="submit"],
input[type="file"] > input[type="button"]
  display: inline-block
  box-sizing: border-box
  height: 20px
  line-height: 20px

• Note that you are not allowed to embed any font in a website. You need to check the license first. Fonts from Font Squirrel are all okay to embed and use for commercial purposes, but as with many free fonts, quality differs widely, especially at medium and small font sizes.
• You will need to embed your font in several formats since browser support is a mess.

You can change the color for text selection via CSS, using the ::selection and ::-moz-selection pseudo-elements.

Adding this to your Sass will make all text selections use a red background:

::selection
  background-color: #f00

::-moz-selection
  background-color: #f00

Unfortunately, those can't be combined into "::selection, ::-moz-selection". Doing so will have no effect.

You can use text-overflow to truncate a text using CSS but it does not fit fancy requirements.

Here is a hack for the special case where you want to truncate one of two strings in one line that can both vary in length, while fully keeping one of them. See this example screenshot where we never want to show an ellipsis for the distance:

![Flexible overflow with optional ellipsis](https://makandracards.com/makandra/5885-a-flexible-overflow-ellipsis/at...

When using Rails to truncate strings, you may end up with strings that are still too long for their container or are not as long as they could be. You can get a prettier result using stylesheets.

The CSS property text-overflow: ellipsis has been around for quite a long time now but since Firefox did not support it for ages, you did not use it. Since Firefox 7 you can!

Note that this only works for single-line texts. If you want to truncate tests across multiple lines, use a JavaScript solution like...

I have no idea how it's supposed to work (or why the don't have a print CSS), but this works for pages written with Markdown:

1. "Edit" the wiki page
2. Copy all text
3. Run a Markdown interpreter and pipe its result, e.g.: kramdown > /tmp/github.html
4. Paste your markdown
5. Press Ctrl-D to finalize your input
6. Open the generated HTML file and print it.

O_o

Firefox, Opera and Internet Explorer will repeat elements with position: fixed on every printed page (see attached example).

The internet knows no way to do this in Webkit browsers (Chrome, Safari). These browsers will only render the element on the first printed page.

When you print out a HTML pages, all raster images (like PNGs) will appear aliased. This is because a printer's resolution is usually much higher than that of a computer screen.

If an image absolutely must look awesome when printed, a solution is to embed the image in much higher solution than needed (e.g. four times the horizontal resolution), then scale it down to the desired width using CSS.

Note that this will slightly alter the image's appearance on the screen because browsers will scale down the image [using an anti-aliasing method](...
