I'm migrating my site from Bootstrap to Tailwind 3 and, in the process, built-in solutions (Dropdown, Tabs, Accordion...) needed to be replaced with alternatives. The section I'm working on right now is a custom Comments Editor I created.
I'll leave a link to what Tailwind's Playground generated for me in a CodePen because the code is longer than the maximum number of allowed characters here. The decision to create a Pen is only because in the Playground it doesn't work as the anchors open in new windows/tabs.
Anyway, the code that really matters, what makes the tabs work, is this one:
[data-target] {
scroll-margin-top: 10rem;
}
[data-target]:last-of-type + [role="tabpanel"], :target + [role="tabpanel"]{
display: flex;
}
[role="tabpanel"], :target ~ [data-target]:last-of-type + [role="tabpanel"]{
display: none;
}
As the title says, I'm looking for a way to change the background-color of the tabs, hinting to the User which one is currently active.
To accomplish that, I would need to switch Tailwind's bg-color-0 with bg-color-100 and take border-b-color-0 out of the once active tab and give it to the new one. But I don't know if I can do that only with CSS.
Not add/remove the classes per se, only their corresponding styles
I've seen a lot of implementations of Pure CSS Tabs, and all of them used hidden <input> fields. Though this implementation doesn't use them, I've added and named them accordingly, but I could only target them with CSS if the User clicked exactly where they're positioned (top-left of the tabs) instead of any part of them.
I'm aware I'll eventually have to add JS to switch the ARIA attributes, but is the basic functionality possible to be accomplished with CSS only? If not, is there an alternative implementation with which I could?
Thank you for your time :)

I am working on a website, https://wordpress-625707-2032312.cloudwaysapps.com/, with the WP Shopify Plugin, and trying to change the default button colors. I have gone into dev tools and found the div class to change the button background. I can clearly see it's labeled as "wps-btn wps-btn-secondary wps-add-to-cart css-7k7g1c-buttonCSS-addToCartCSS-AddButton"
But when I use this class for my css changes, it doesn't work. The change is "wps-btn wps-btn-secondary wps-add-to-cart css-7k7g1c-buttonCSS-addToCartCSS-AddButton {
background-color: #D71614 !important;
}"
Why is this not working?? I can't attach screenshots since I'm too new on here...sorry!
Actually you are pretty lost here.
This is not actually a class:
wps-btn wps-btn-secondary wps-add-to-cart css-7k7g1c-buttonCSS-addToCartCSS-AddButton
There are 4 classes there, separated by spaces. The last one is actually unique for the first button. And in css, when you are styling a class, you should start with a dot, like: .class-name
The code you are looking for is:
.wps-btn.wps-btn-secondary.wps-add-to-cart {
background: red;
}
We concatenate 3 classes here with dots and NO spaces.
You should take a look at CSS Selectors:

I've problems related to how-to-separate-apostrophe-syles-from-the-front-end-template.
How can I style <a>-tags without breaking the Admin UI?
Do I have to give each <a> in my own widgets a style-class <a class="mystyle">?
What's the way to style the links of the provided richtext-widget?
Do I have to use .apos-rich-text a to stop changing the admin-control ui of the widget?
Because the following breaks the Admin UI.
.custom-main-container a:hover {
color: #ffffff !important;
}
The menus texts become white on hover and can't be read.
What's the way to handle the styling and to be sure you don't oversee anything?!
The Apostrophe dev team typically stays away from styling at the element level for exactly this reason, however CKEditor doesn't allow you to apply classes on links easily.
An easy and tight way to scope styles to the a element and not interfere with Apostrophe's admin UI is to add a project level class to the rich text widget wrapper.
In your project level /lib/modules/apostrophe-rich-text-widgets/views/widget.html
<div data-rich-text class="apos-rich-text MY-RICH-TEXT">{{ data.widget.content | safe }}</div>
Then in your CSS you can write
.MY-RICH-TEXT a:hover { //whatever }
Be sure to leave data-rich-text in the wrapper, Apostrophe is using that attribute to enhance the widget on the front-end.
My shame... the problem is the !important above.
This makes the specificity too high. Somehow I didn't get this too my mind before.
Although it would be great if the admin UI would get more specificity so that it is not so easy to overwrite its rules by 2 class-selectors.
I have an ExtJS form that uses hbox-layout containers to create sentences that contain form inputs and there is a requirement to disable the form under certain conditions. The hbox-layout containers have a series of radio, text, checkbox, and textfield components. You can see an example on jsfiddle.
This is an answered question here on SO that doesn't fully work for me because if you disable something that isn't a field (like the text component I'm using) the disable style is different - it appears to mask the component instead of just graying out the text. When nested components are disabled, the mask gradients stack. Examples of this scenario are illustrated on this jsfiddle.
Is there a way to override how text handles its styling when it becomes disabled? I think that may be the easiest solution.
You'll have to handpick each style fix, but yes that's completely possible. Just addCls to give a hook for your CSS...
For example, using the following CSS:
.my-disabled-ct text {
opacity: .3;
}
You can give a similar disabled look both to fields and text items with the following code:
var rootCt = Ext.getCmp('lotsOfItems');
rootCt.query('field').forEach(function(field) {
field.disable();
});
rootCt.query('container').forEach(function(ct) {
ct.addCls('my-disabled-ct');
});
You should probably avoid using disable on field since Ext put a mask over them then (though you could probably hide it with CSS).
You could add the class and target the CSS directly to text items however, why not? In this case, you would query for 'text' and use addCls on them, with this kind of CSS:
text.my-disabled-cls {opacity: .3;}
That goes without saying that you'll restore your components look to "not disabled" by removing the CSS class with the same query and the removeCls method.
I am building a jQuery UI site. I can see how easy it is to add widgets or dialogs and also I have seen it is possible to style elements using the theming api:
http://jqueryui.com/docs/Theming/API
So how do I style things like normal text or html headers 1-3 or html tables?
I would like to use the classes and styles from jQuery UI so everything fits together and changes when I change the theme.
I have tried to apply ui-widget-content or ui-widget-header to divs or h1,h2, but maybe there is a better way, or an in depth tutorial somewhere.
I usually detect the class of the theme I want to customize, and then instead of changing directly in the jquery css, (because I prefer to have udner control my changes, and ebcuase if I update the theme, don't need to add the changes again) , I add these modified classes in an "override" block or how you want to name it, so that are same classes, but with an important;! or other hierarchy trick added. For instance, calling the parent ID to give it more weight: #content .ui-widget-content {whatever} , or .ui-widget-content {whatever property:whatever value !important;}
Is usually some small bits, never a large portion of things that I want to customize, so adding these 2 or 3 classes in my main.css does not hurt. It depends, though.
edit: Oh... with "oder" you meant "order". Sorry, was not understanding well your question (is a bit unclear).
If you are not supporting IE7, you might be interested in using:
tr:nth-child(even) {background: #fff}
tr:nth-child(odd) {background: #000}
I am using the jQuery UI library out of the box, based on a theme.
Having links rendered as buttons is great, however I need to override some buttons with different colours.
How do I specify an specific class for a particular button to use?
I recommend looking at the CSS for the jQuery UI buttons and duplicating the structure of the CSS which specifies the buttons, but with your own class instead of the jQuery UI classes. Make the overrides that you need in this CSS and include it after the jQuery UI CSS. CSS uses a combination of the most specific selector and ordering to determine which values to apply. By doing this you will make sure that you have the same specificity for each of the CSS selectors used by jQuery so that your CSS takes precedence based on order.
Smashing Magazine has an article that probably has more information than you care to know about the specificity issue.
You can also:
Use Developer Tools in the browser (Chrome has great ones).
See what class from jQuery UI defines the button color.
Override it in your CSS file with the "!important" attribute.
For example, when I needed to override jQuery UI spinner control and remove the borders, I found the class that defines the borders using Chrome Dev Tools. Then in CSS: I added something like that:
.<jquery-ui-class-that-i-found> { border: 0px !important; }
Works great!
I would say, give the particular button or buttons an id, and:
$("#buttonId").removeClass().addClass("myClass");
If you want to apply it to multiple buttons each with its own id:
$("#buttonId, #anotherButton").removeClass().addClass("myClass");
I think the button API should include a configuration like this where you can change color etc. by passing parameters
$("button").button({background:"FFFFFF",hover:"FFFFF"});
this is just an idea where you can change some of its visual attributes.
I found this worked for me:
$(".btnSave").removeClass("ui-state-default").addClass("SaveButtonStyling");
Basically needed to remove the ui-state-default class and then add my own for the background colour etc.
Thsi meant that the rounded corner class etc stayed put and I was able to amend the background colour etc.
If you simply wish to have some additional/different for particular buttons, simply give the buttons some classes like class="mybuttonclass otherbuttonclass" - multiple classes are allowed. Then, just add css rules for your class(es)
.mybuttonclass
{
background-color: red;
}
.otherbuttonclass
{
color:white;
}
thus the background is red with white text - or whatever combination you wish, which would override items in the cascade (CSS) above it. (assumption is that your .CSS file is linked in AFTER the jquery UI css file, or is in-line on the page, both of which would override the jQuery UI css.
