Div with CSS content, after pseudo element is not visible

Question

I have a POC that I have to complete and I am only allowed to use CSS to update the styles of a product. I have replaced one of the images of the product with a logo by using the CSS content attribute.

I have to add a simple string with a phone number to be shown after this logo. I have tried to use the :after pseudo-element to do this. This works only if the content of the div is empty (logo is removed).

I have tried changing the display to inline-block and hard coding the heightand width for both rules. Essentially everything I could find. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

The content property replaces all content within the element. By adding content to a non-pseudo selector, that content will replace the ::before and ::after pseudo selector.

So try doing this using the content property within the ::before and ::after pseudo selectors only.

.demo:before {
     content: url('http://placehold.it/350x150')
}

.demo:after {
    content: 'some text';
    display: block;
}

<div class="demo"></div>
