Add square with X in the same row-CodePudding

I have a simple square with yes or no label as:

.yesNoSquare {
  width: 10px;
  height: 10px;
  border: 1px solid;
  display: inline-block;
}

.yesNoSquare-space {
  padding-right: 20px;
}

<div >
  <span ></span>
  <span > YES</span>
  <span ></span>
  <span > NO</span>
</div>

Now I want to add an "X" inside square so I do something like this:

.yesNoSquare {
  width: 10px;
  height: 10px;
  border: 1px solid;
  display: inline-block;
}

.yesNoSquare-space {
  padding-right: 20px;
}

.yesNoSquare-cross {
  height: 10px;
  width: 10px;
  /*background-color: #FA6900;*/
  position: relative;
  border: 1px solid;
}

.yesNoSquare-cross:after {
  position: absolute;
  top: -45px;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 2px;
  content: "\2716";
  line-height: 100px;
  text-align: center;
  color: #000000;
}

<div >
  <div ></div>
  <span > YES</span>
  <span ></span>
  <span > NO</span>
</div>

The problem is that I use div instead a span because span did not shown the square correctly, but when I try it, the "X" square does not shown in the same line.

The desire result:

Just add display: inline-block; to .yesNoSquare-cross.

.yesNoSquare {
  width: 10px;
  height: 10px;
  border: 1px solid;
  display: inline-block;
}

.yesNoSquare-space {
  padding-right: 20px;
}

.yesNoSquare-cross {
  height: 10px;
  width: 10px;
  /*background-color: #FA6900;*/
  position: relative;
  border: 1px solid;
  display: inline-block;/*the new code*/
}

.yesNoSquare-cross:after {
  position: absolute;
  top: -45px;
  bottom: 0;
  left: 0;
  right: 2px;
  content: "\2716";
  line-height: 100px;
  text-align: center;
  color: #000000;
}

<div >
  <div ></div>
  <span > YES</span>
  <span ></span>
  <span > NO</span>
</div>

All that is needed are two standard checkboxes or two standard radio buttons. You can customize the look, once you decide which one you want.

<input type="checkbox" id="check-yes">YES
<input type="checkbox" id="check-no">NO
<hr />
<input type="radio" id="radio-yes" name="yesno">YES
<input type="radio" id="radio-no" name="yesno">NO

CodePudding user response：

Use the semantically correct tags which are <label> and <input type="checkbox"> or <input type="radio">. The example below shows how to customize labels, and checkbox/radio buttons. I used radio buttons since the boxes in OP were labeled "YES" and "NO". By assigning each radio button the same name value (in this case name="yn"), the radio button group become mutually exclusive, meaning that only one radio button can be checked while the other(s) must be unchecked.
