I am trying to transform a set of two radio buttons in a stack of two labels, one blue and on gray representing, respectively, the selected radio and the unselected one. Clicking on this stack will change which of the labels is blue (and which of the radio buttons is checked). It works well but it breaks down in an ugly manner when the two labels aren't of the same width. The best way to see what I mean is to try the test page I made out on your own server or to navigate here to see the page in action.
The comments in the source code and actual content explain pretty much what I am aiming for and what the problems are. Also, this is an attempt at accessibility and graceful degradation, so any remarks concerning those issues are most welcome.

<h1>Word stacks</h1>
<h2>How it works</h2>
<ol>
<li>PHP transforms<br />
<code><?php createWordStack("name","one","two"); ?></code><br />
into<br />
<code>
<pre>
<span class="stack">
<label for="name">
<input type="radio" name="name" value="one" />one
</label>
<label for="name">
<input type="radio" name="name" value="two" checked="checked" />two
</label>
</span>
</pre>
</code>
</li>
<li>
javascript hides the radio buttons, applies class declarations to the labels and adds an onclick event listener to the<br />
<code>
<span class="stack">
</code>
</li>
</ol>
<h2 id="example">Example</h2>
<form action="<?php echo($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . "#example"); ?>" class="stackContainer" method="post">
<p>Choose between <?php createWordStack("name","one","two"); ?> options.</p>
<input type="submit" value="Test that the radio buttons hidden behind this still work" />
</form>
<h3>print_r($_POST)</h3>
<pre>
<?php print_r($_POST); ?>
</pre>
<form class="stackContainer">
<h2>Known issues</h2>
<p>
This technique
<?php createWordStack("no_matter","absolutely does not","does"); ?>
look good with two different sizes of `words`,
<?php createWordStack("no_matter2","no matter","although this depends"); ?>
in which order they appear. If looks better when the longer word is above the other though. Plus, the way it breaks makes it unreadable when the longer word is on the bottom if the remainder of the text needs to span many lines.
</p>
<p>
Another problem is when the bottom word
<?php createWordStack("no_matter3","is","isn't"); ?>
longer than the top word but actually consists of a single word. It cannot wrap and therefore interferes with the following text.
</p>
<p>
<?php createWordStack("no_matter4","It really becomes unusable and quite ugly if the top word happens to wrap and span over two or more lines. Of course, the first know issue shown above is enough to understand that THIS known issue doesn't mean a thing if it is the bottom that is too long as it will span over many lines no matter what since it is limited by the width of the shorter word above..","It still works"); ?>
.. and so, all in all, it is better to avoid long words altogether.
</p>
<p>
Now, just to illustrate what I am saying above..
<?php createWordStack("no_matter5","Look at this shit!","It really becomes unusable and quite ugly if the top word happens to wrap and span over two or more lines. Of course, the first know issue shown above is enough to understand that THIS known issue doesn't mean a thing if it is the bottom that is too long as it will span over many lines no matter what since it is limited by the width of the shorter word above.."); ?>
.. and so, all in all, it is better to avoid long words altogether.
</p>
<h2>Notes</h2>
<p>
At least, the next paragraph
<?php createWordStack("no_matter6","isn't","is"); ?>
pushed down too far.
</p>
<p>
<?php createWordStack("no_matter7","It works","It doesn't work"); ?>
when I put the stackBottom BEFORE the stackTop, so I could also call them stackChosen and stackAlternate and just change the className in order to choose one or the other. This is what the javascript used to do when you click on the stack: if the label is of class stackTop, it changes it to stackBottom, and vice-versa. Now, only the colour is changed..
</p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
So the question is: How would I go about resolving the known issues explained in the test page? I'm sorry, I know this is no way of asking a question, but I just don't know how else to phrase it. I did put much effort in making this test page as clear as possible.
Thanks in advance
Using position absolute for your stack bottom broke everything (browser couldn't take the stack bottom width into account), here is an alternative uses inline-bock instead
Replace your .stack, .stackTop and .stackBottom definition by those:
.stack{
display: inline-block; /* prevent the block options to induce line breaks in your text */
line-height: 1; /* Have the 2 options verticaly close to each other */
position: relative; /* Moves the lines to be in between*/
top: 0.5em;
white-space: nowrap; /* prevent line breaks */
}
.stackTop,
.stackBottom{
display: block; /* Stack the options on top of each other */
}
