Refactoring Code: LocalGov Drupal Alert Banner

Parent Feed: 
mark.ie

I've been doing a lot of contribution to LocalGov Drupal. Here's my thought process when refactoring some code for the alert banner module.

LocalGov Drupal is the distribution for local councils in the United Kingdom. When reviewing the alert banner module, there were a few small issues that niggled me with the alert banner HTML and CSS. I wanted to make sure the HTML followed BEM naming conventions, and then the CSS the same. This means the CSS is easier to read, and relies less on nested selectors.

There was also a tiny issue with hover states on some of the buttons.
