Question

I’d like to have a div that looks like this:

Is this possible to do with HTML + CSS? I will also be animating this div with jQuery. When the div is hidden I would like the title and the top line to show.

Answer 1

You can do something like this, where you set a negative margin on the h1 (or whatever header you are using)

div{
    height:100px;
    width:100px;
    border:2px solid black;
}

h1{
    width:30px;
    margin-top:-10px;
    margin-left:5px;
    background:white;
}

Note: you need to set a background as well as a width on the h1

EDIT

To make it work with hiding the div, you could use some jQuery like this

$('a').click(function(){
    var a = $('h1').detach();
    $('div').hide();
    $(a).prependTo('body');    
});

(You will need to modify…)
