<h3 id="constant-width-to-height-ratio">Constant width to height ratio</h3>
<p>Given an element of variable width, it will ensure its height remains proportionate in a responsive fashion (i.e., its width to height ratio remains constant).</p>
<h4 data-type="HTML">HTML</h4><pre><code class="lang-html"><div class="constant-width-to-height-ratio"></div>
</code></pre>
<h4 data-type="CSS">CSS</h4><pre><code class="lang-css">.constant-width-to-height-ratio {
background: #333;
width: 50%;
padding-top: 50%;
}
</code></pre>
<h4 data-type="Demo">Demo</h4>
<p>Resize your browser window to see the proportion of the element remain the same.</p>

</div>
<style>
.snippet-demo__constant-width-to-height-ratio {
background: #333;
width: 50%;
padding-top: 50%;
}
</style>
<h4 data-type="Explanation">Explanation</h4>
<p><code>padding-top</code> and <code>padding-bottom</code> can be used as an alternative to <code>height</code> such that the percentage value causes an element's height to become a percentage of its width, i.e. <code>50%</code> means the height
will be 50% of the element's width. This allows its proportion to remain constant.</p>

<h4 data-type="Explanation">Explanation</h4>
<ol>
<li><code>text-shadow: ...</code> has 4 values with offsets that cover a 4x4 px area to ensure the underline has a "thick" shadow that covers the line where descenders clip it. Use a color that matches the background. For a larger font, use
a larger <code>px</code> size.</li>
<li><code>background-image: linear-gradient(...)</code> creates a 90deg gradient with the current text color (<code>currentColor</code>).</li>
<li>The <code>background-*</code> properties size the gradient as 1x1px at the bottom and repeats it along the x-axis.</li>
<li>The <code>::selection</code> pseudo selector ensures the text shadow does not interfere with text selection.
</li>

<h4 data-type="Explanation">Explanation</h4>
<ol>
<li><code>position: relative</code> on the element establishes a Cartesian positioning context for psuedo elements.</li>
<li><code>::after</code> defines a pseudo element.</li>
<li><code>background-image: url(...)</code> adds the SVG shape (a 24x24 triangle in base64 format) as the background image of the psuedo element, which repeats by default. It must be the same color as the block that is being separated.
</li>
<li><code>position: absolute</code> takes the pseudo element out of the flow of the document and positions it in relation to the parent.</li>
<li><code>width: 100%</code> ensures the element stretches the entire width of its parent.</li>
<li><code>height: 24px</code> is the same height as the shape.</li>
<li><code>bottom: 0</code> positions the pseudo element at the bottom of the parent.</li>

</p>
<p>The color of the border is the color of the triangle. The side the triangle tip points corresponds to the opposite <code>border-*</code> property. For example, a color on <code>border-top</code> means the arrow points downward.</p>
<p>Experiment with the <code>px</code> values to change the proportion of the triangle.</p>
