Dynamically setting width of after selector
I am creating a simple tab like functionality using CSS.
When a tab is active, I set CSS of the selected tab using the tab-slider--tabs:after selector. However one of Tab header text is longer than the other, hence the image looks like this:
How do I dynamically set the width so that it looks like this:
.tab-slider--tabs {
display: block;
float: left;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style: none;
position: relative;
border-radius: 35px;
overflow: hidden;
background: #fff;
height: 35px;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}
.tab-slider--tabs:after {
content: "";
width: 50%;
background: #345F90;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
transition: all 250ms ease-in-out;
border-radius: 35px;
}
.tab-slider--tabs.slide:after {
left: 50%;
}
Here's the: Demo Code
Update: I was able to solve this temporarily using .tab-slider--trigger{ width:30%; display: table-cell; ...} but I am still looking for the right way to do this.

The only way I see without getting too complex is to make them the same width (large enough to fit the long string)

Can you please show how. On a mobile device, this screws up. I feel I am close but missing something essential.

try this:
.tab-slider--trigger {
width:150px;
font-size: 12px;
line-height: 1;
font-weight: bold;
color: #345F90;
text-transform: uppercase;
text-align: center;
padding: 11px 20px;
position: relative;
z-index: 2;
cursor: pointer;
display: inline-block;
transition: color 250ms ease-in-out;
-webkit-user-select: none;
-moz-user-select: none;
-ms-user-select: none;
user-select: none;
}
Thanks. This works but if I check this on a mobile, the text of Tab2 disapperars since the container width is smaller there. Try setting the .container { width: 15%; margin: 3rem auto; } and see what I am saying
