Modern Custom Radio Buttons with jQuery and CSS3

A tiny jQuery plugin that transforms your radio buttons into a modern dropdown select list with background images interaction. Great for creating an image filter that fades in/out the background images depending on the option you choose.

How to use it:

1. Create several radio buttons for an image filter.

<div class="container">
  <div class="filter-wrapper">
    <div class="image-filters">
      <input id="filter-1" type="radio" name="radio-set">
      <label for="filter-1">Filter 1</label>
      <input id="filter-2" type="radio" name="radio-set">
      <label for="filter-2">Filter 2</label>
      <input id="filter-3" type="radio" name="radio-set">
      <label for="filter-3">Filter 3</label>
    </div>
  </div>
</div>

2. Include jQuery library and the custom radio button plugin at the end of your web page.

<script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="js/main.js"></script>

3. The required CSS styles for the plugin.

body { height: 100%; }

}

.image-filters.active input:checked + label { color: #000; }

.image-filters.active input:checked + label:after {
  content: "\f077";
  display: inline-block;
  font-family: FontAwesome;
  font-style: normal;
  font-weight: normal;
  line-height: 1;
  -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;

  display: inline-block;
  font-family: FontAwesome;
  font-style: normal;
  font-weight: normal;
  line-height: 1;
  -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;

  padding: 10px 18px 15px 18px;
  border-left: 1px dotted #ccc;
  position: absolute;
  top: 25%;
  height: 55%;
  right: 0;
  font-size: .7em;
}

.image-filters input:not(:checked) + label:hover {

  transition: all 0.3s ease-in;
  -webkit-transition: all 0.3s ease-in;
  -moz-transition: all 0.3s ease-in;
  -o-transition: all 0.3s ease-in;
}

.image-filters label {
  width: 100%;

}
 @media (max-width: 440px) {

.container .filter-wrapper {
  vertical-align: top;
  padding-top: 10%;
}

.image-filters { width: 300px; }

.image-filters input:checked + label:after { padding-top: 8px; }

.image-filters label { font-size: 1.2em; }

4. Initialize the plugin with options.

$( function() {
$('.image-filters').customradio({
mobileImages: true, // loads different images on mobile devices
mobileSize: 640,
imgsUrl: 'imgs/' // must be have the same name as the ID of the respective input/label. 
});
});
