List Styles

There are three list styles. You can use special CSS classes on list tags to change the look of bulleted lists (linked and unlinked).

  1. Numbered list. Numbered list linked.
TYPE CODE USE
UNORDERED LIST <ul><li></li></ul>

Regular circular bulleted list.

ORDERED LIST <ol><li></li></ol>  Numbered list.
UNORDERED LIST WITH ORANGE SQUARES <ul class="blue-arrow-list"><li></li></ul>  We know it says arrow list, but it will change the circular bullets to squares. To get the look, add class="blue-arrow-list" inside the opening <ul> tag. 

Table Stack

Creates a vertically stacked table on cellphones from your horizontal desktop table.

TYPE CODE USE
STACK <table class="stack"></table> MANDATORY FOR ALL TABLES FOR MOBILE VIEWING. 

Table Scroll

For large data tables where stack is not applicable, use the scroll function. Then, users have the ability to scroll large tables when viewing on a cellphone.

TYPE CODE USE
SCROLL <div class="table-scroll"><table></table></div> MANDATORY FOR ALL LARGE TABLES FOR MOBILE VIEWING. 

Basic Table Layout

Here is a basic table and you can use any of the styles above inside tables: Headings, lists, paragraphs, and links. 

Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
Row 1 Some text Some text
Row 2 Some text Some text

Special Classes

Use special CSS classes, on images, text, and sidebars.

Images

You can use special CSS classes on images, to float images left or right within a page. See how to float images.

  • class= “image-left”
  • class= “image-right”
  • class= “clear-all”

Centering Text

You can use special CSS classes on some text and elements for centering.

TYPE CODE USE
CENTER <p class="text-center"></p>  Center text and buttons within blocks. Using this class is preferred over using the Center button on the T4 editor.

Blockquote

You can use special CSS classes on paragraphs to create blockquotes.

Here is a blockquote.
TYPE CODE USE
BLOCKQUOTE <blockquote></blockquote> Emphasize certain text.

Sidebars

There are three sidebar styles. For sidebars, we prefer that you use the following special CSS classes and add to blocks.

TYPE CODE USE
ADD A RIGHT-SIDEBAR <div class="gray-vertical-border"></div>

Adds a border for a right sidebar menu that contains large text.

ADD A RIGHT-SIDEBAR WITH SMALL TEXT <div class="gray-vertical-border" id="county-right-sidebar"></div> Adds a border for a right sidebar menu that contains small text.
ADD A LEFT-SIDEBAR <div class="gray-vertical-border2"></div> Adds a border for a left sidebar menu that contains large text.

Embeds

Social Feeds

It is preferable to use a LinkedIn embed, which is more stable across browsers. You can add LinkedIn embed code to any block.

Video

IFAS pages only track plays, pauses, and stops on video embeds. For videos, we prefer that you use one of two video content pieces you can automatically add to pages by clicking the green Create Content button. Then, you will NOT need to use the below embed code. The following special CSS classes will create a video embed that works on a mobile phone.

Add a UF/IFAS Branded cover photo to all video embeds, contact UF/IFAS Graphics or Video for details.

TYPE CODE USE
VIDEOS <div class="flex-video widescreen responsive-embed"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/RDdbJxHYnKM" width="560" height="315"></iframe></div> Use content pieces to easily add videos to webpages. Or, embed this code in a block .
