Horizontal Divider Line With Back-To-Top Button - [Shortcode]

Horizontal Divider ShortcodeYou are quite aware with HTML hr tag that defines a thematic break in a HTML page that can be a shift of topic or a section division.  The hr element is used to separate content in an HTML page. While writing blog posts, it makes a lot of sense to format your content well and present long lengthy content in sections rather in a single plain text, in such case CSS3 Dividers help a lot and to make it even more effective, we have included a smooth scrolling back-to-top link in the horizontal divider that takes a user back to the top of the page content. The BacktoTop button will display only when the content is long enough else it will auto hide itself. It will appear when a user scrolls down but would disappear as a user scrolls up. We have created around 5 Color Skins in two different themes, one with Solid color and one with Fading effect. The Hr Tag is created using Blogger Shortcode Plugin, the complete Toolkit For blogspot blogs.

Since Blogspot blogs are coded with XHTML therefore the <hr> tag must be properly closed, like this: <hr /> however in HTML, the <hr> tag has no end tag. So we have taken care of the same standards.

The Five color themes are

  1. black, fblack
  2. red, fred
  3. green, fgreen
  4. pink, fpink
  5. yelow, fyellow

PS: where the f versions are faded themes. As you would see in the demo below.
