Responsive circle based on it's content

Question

I have this example JSFIDDLE contains a circle, but I'm having trouble to make it responsive according to it's content, in the above example when the content is long, it overflows the circle.

.cd-single-point {
    margin:50px;
  position: absolute;
  border-radius: 50%;
}

.cd-single-point > a {
  position: relative;
  text-align:center;
  padding:2px;
  text-decoration: none;
  z-index: 2;
  display: block;
  width: 20px;
  height: 20px;
  border-radius: inherit;
  background: #d95353;
  box-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3), inset 0 1px 0 rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.3);
  -webkit-transition: background-color 0.2s;
  -moz-transition: background-color 0.2s;
  transition: background-color 0.2s;
}

.cd-single-point::after {
  /* this is used to create the pulse animation */
  content: '';
  position: absolute;
  z-index: 1;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  top: 0;
  left: 0;
  border-radius: inherit;
  background-color: transparent;
  -webkit-animation: cd-pulse 2s infinite;
  -moz-animation: cd-pulse 2s infinite;
  animation: cd-pulse 2s infinite;
}

How can I achieve this only with css?

Answer 1

You could use the padding technique on a pseudo element to keep the aspect ratio of the circle and make it responsive according to it's content :

DEMO

HTML :

<div class="wrap">
    <div class="in">+46546546</div>
</div>

CSS :

.wrap{
    color: #fff;
    position:relative;
    display:inline-block;
}
.in{
    padding:60% 10%;
    margin-top:-0.6em;
}
.in:after{
    content:'';
    position:absolute;
    top:0; left:0;
    width:120%;
    padding-bottom:120%;
    background-color:#D95353;
    border-radius:50%;
    z-index:-1;
}

HTML

<ul>
    <li>
        <div class="cd-single-point"> <a class="cd-img-replace" href="#">
            <div class="takeNumber">+99</div>
        </a>

        </div>
    </li>
    <!-- .cd-single-point -->
</ul>
