# Close button

A generic close button for dismissing content like modals and alerts.

##### Example

Provide an option to dismiss or close a component with `.btn-close`. Default styling is limited, but highly customizable. Modify the Sass variables to replace the default `background-image`. Be sure to include text for screen readers, as we’ve done with `aria-label`.

                          <button type="button" class="btn-close" aria-label="Close"></button>

##### Disabled state

Disabled close buttons change their `opacity`. We’ve also applied `pointer-events: none` and `user-select: none` to preventing hover and active states from triggering.

                          <button type="button" class="btn-close" disabled aria-label="Close"></button>

##### White variant

Change the default `.btn-close` to be white with the `.btn-close-white` class. This class uses the `backdrop-filter` property to invert the `background-image`.

                          <button type="button" class="btn-close btn-close-white" aria-label="Close"></button>
                          <button type="button" class="btn-close btn-close-white" disabled aria-label="Close"></button>
