How do I change the color of radio buttons

Question

I mean  a radio button itself consists of a round shape and a dot at the center  when the button is selected   What I want to change is the color of both  Can this be done using CSS

As other said  there s no way to achieve this in all browser  so best way of doing so crossbrowser is using javascript unobtrusively  Basically you have to turn your radiobutton into links  fully customizable via CSS   each click on link will be bound to the related radiobox  toggling his state and all the others

A clever way to do it would be to create a separate div with a height and width of -for example- 50px and then a radius of 50px lay this over your radio buttons

A radio button is a native element specific to each OS browser  There is no way to change its color style  unless you want to implement custom images or use a custom Javascript library which includes images  e g  this - cached link

A quick fix would be to overlay the radio button input style using  after  however it s probably a better practice to create your own custom toolkit    x000D   x000D      input type  radio   after   x000D          width  15px  x000D          height  15px  x000D          border-radius  15px  x000D          top  -2px  x000D          left  -1px  x000D          position  relative  x000D          background-color   d1d3d1  x000D          content      x000D          display  inline-block  x000D          visibility  visible  x000D          border  2px solid white  x000D        x000D   x000D      input type  radio   checked after   x000D          width  15px  x000D          height  15px  x000D          border-radius  15px  x000D          top  -2px  x000D          left  -1px  x000D          position  relative  x000D          background-color   ffa500  x000D          content      x000D          display  inline-block  x000D          visibility  visible  x000D          border  2px solid white  x000D        x000D   lt input type  radio  name  gender   gt  x000D   lt input type  radio  name  gender   gt  x000D   x000D   x000D

Well to create extra elements we can use  after   before  so we don   t have to change the HTML that much   Then for radio buttons and checkboxes we can use  checked  There are a few other pseudo elements we can use as well  such as  hover   Using a mixture of these we can create some pretty cool custom forms  check this

Only if you are targeting webkit-based browsers  Chrome and Safari  maybe you are developing a Chrome WebApp  who knows      you can use the following   input type  radio        -webkit-appearance  none      And then style it as if it were a simple HTML element  for example applying a background image   Use input type  radio   active for when the input is selected  to provide the alternate graphics  Update  As of 2018 you can add the following to support multiple browser vendors   input type  radio       -webkit-appearance  none    -moz-appearance  none    appearance  none
