Specificity of inherited CSS properties
(4 answers)
Closed 1 year ago.
let's say I have following html-code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="./style.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="a">
<div class="b">
<p>Test</p>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
And following css-fragment:
div {
color: red;
}
.a {
color:blue;
}
Why now is "Test" colored red and not blue? The tag-element is in the d-level, while the class element is in the c-level, thus the class-rule is higher and thus it should be applied, but it don't - why? Why doesn't the children of <div class="b"> inherit properties from <div class="a"> - or to put it more accurate: Why do I have to explicitly set color = inherit?
_
There is no class "b" in css-fragment. Then,
(div class="b") is similar to (div) with no class.
Because .a only affects on its own div and "div" its for all divs.
So if you do this:
<div class="a">
<div class="b" id="b">
<p>Test</p>
#b { color: blue; }
or
.b { color: blue; }
Your test will be blue.

Can I combine :nth-child() or :nth-of-type() with an arbitrary selector?

i have added margin top using nth-of-type why it is not applied ?but it working find when I am passing value 3 why ?

<div class="rc105w1 rw-scrim-neutral-40bg">

The nth-of-type is referring to the element type, in this case a div.
It is not referring to the nth instance of that class in the selector.
The 3 works because the class you are targeting is the 3rd div in that node. The 2 doesn't work because the second div does not have that class, it has some rw-scrim-neutral-40bg class.
It is typically more common to see nth-of-type used with the element in the selector, e.g. div:nth-of-type(#) or p.something:nth-of-type(#)

Is there a CSS parent selector?

On hover of child, change background color of parent container (CSS only)

Closed 4 years ago.
so i have a html page with a body and the following structure
<body>
<h1>Hello</h1>
<div>
<div>
// editable area -->
<div id="b">
<h1>Bye</h1>
</div>
// <--
</div>
</div>
</body>
I want to style the <body> but can only access and edit the <div> with id "b" and add a custom css file. Since the css file is used for more than one html files i can't just directly style the <body>.
Is there a possibility to style a <body> with a specific child element (child of a child) with a specific id?
You could add a specific class or id to a html page of your site(set of html pages), this way, you will only be doing CSS changes for your specific html page then access other elements as in the snippet below:
#Body_id{
background-color: yellow;
}
#Body_id div{
background-color: pink;
}
#Body_id div div{
background-color: red;
}
#Body_id div div #unique{
background-color: green;
color:white;
}
#unique{
background-color: black !important;
}
<body id="Body_id">
<h1>Hello</h1>
<div>
<div>
<div id="unique">
<h1>H1 in level 3</h1>
This is a level 3 div
</div>
This is a level 2 div
</div>
This is a level 1 div
</div>
</body>
You can give the body a ID
Then you can style it like this:
#Body_id{
background-color: yellow;
}
#divFirst{
background-color: red;
}
#divSecond{
background-color: blue;
}
#b{
background-color: green;
}
<body id="Body_id">
<h1>Hello</h1>
<div id="divFirst">
<h1>DivFirst</h1>
<div id="divSecond">
<h1>DivSecond</h1>
<div id="b">
<h1>Bye</h1>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>

I am trying to hover on a link to change the image in div using Adjacent Sibling Selector, but it does not show anything when I hover on the link.
<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html>
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styletest.css">

<div>
<a class="a" href="/template-1978944/editor"> ANATOMY NOW

CSS:
.bg{
height:100%;
}
.a:hover + .bg {
background-image: url('https://preview.ibb.co/gce5me/anatomy_Now.png');
}
You can also use height:100vh;if you need to fill the background of the viewport
Here is HTML Code
<!doctype html>

<head>
<title>Float</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Font Sizes.css">

<div class="First">

</div>
<div class="Second">
<img src="secondImage.png" alt="Second Image of Article" class="SecondImage">
<p>Picture No.2</p>
</div>
</body>
Here is CSS
.First{
width:430px;
background-color: Red;
float: left;
}
.Second{
width:330px;
background-color: Blue;
}
I tried different tricks but failed. Please Explain it in detail. I searched a lot but could not found my answer.The second element not arrange it self to the right side of first element. When i remove the width property from second element then it arranged at right.
With Width property:
Without Width Property on second element:
div's are block level elements and you have only supplied a float on First. Putting a float on Second will give you the effect you desire IF the browser is wider than 760px;
