I'm looking for a solution to not override styling on table cells during hover IF the cell contains a SPAN tag (this span also has a class applied named isThreshold) OR the div cell contains the class .row_select).
The following works and prevents the override if it contains .row_select, but finding a way to look ahead and see if it contains a span tag doesn't seem to work:
.webix_column > div.webix_cell.gridRowHover:not(.webix_row_select) { //this works
color: red;
}
.webix_column > div.webix_cell.gridRowHover:not(span) { //doesn't work
color: red;
}
EDIT
using the following I almost get there as it doesn't affect the cell, but specifically targets the span tag. Having it not affect the cell at all including the span tag is what I really need if the .webix_row_select and span tag are present.
.webix_column > div.webix_cell.gridRowHover:not(.webix_row_select) > span
//Markup
<div role="gridcell" aria-rowindex="1" aria-colindex="4" aria-level="1" class="webix_cell">
<span class="isThreshold">1</span>
</div>
<div role="gridcell" aria-rowindex="2" aria-colindex="4" aria-level="1" class="webix_cell
row_select">
<span class="isThreshold">1</span>
</div>
Any ideas how I can account for both scenarios onHover? The class .gridRowHover is dynamically injected on hover which is what I have been using to target things.
Thanks in advance
Ok, I discovered that !important was hosing things for me and dropping them and simply targeting the table cell on hover was sufficient enough to do what I needed. And this is why you dont use those (!important) unless you really need to do so.
Thanks to anyone that was looking at this.

I have a web code generated by an aplication (built in angular). It is a menu choice where I need to hide some of them. It looks e.g. like this:
<div class=first>
<div class=second>
<a href=href1>
</div>
<div class=second>
<a href=href2>
</div>
<div class=second>
<a href=href3>
</div>
</div>
Now what I need is to hide the div which contains a element with href2.
I can hide the a element:
.first .second a[href="href2"] {display:none}
But I need to hide the whole div element. I thought:
.first .second < a[href="href2"] {display:none}
that doesn't work.
I KNOW THE JQUERY SOLUTION with has function. The problem is I can only adapt css files of the application. If i'm right I cannot use jquery in css file.
Please...any Idea how to do this ?
thanks a lot for help
best regards

At the moment there is (sadly) no way to adress the parent element with CSS.
I don't know your layout or CSS Code but maybe you can just structure your HTML-Code in a different way.
Edit
And now I understand your question...
To hide (for example) the 3th .second div you don't need to adress it from the child element but from the parent element.
What you are probably looking for are the nth selectors,
for instance: nth-child() or nth-of-type().
You can find more info here.
Also, you should probably take a look at the basics of HTML and CSS.
In your code you have not closed the <a> tags or wrapped the values of the attributes in quotation marks.
Wrong:
<div class=first></div>
Right:
<div class="first"></div>
To hide (for instance) the first element you could use the :first-child selector or the :nth-child() selector. Since you will probably use the nth-child() selector this would be:
.first > .second:nth-child(1) {
display: none;
}
I experimented with using the :only-child pseudo-class but unfortunately this does not seem to consider the text nodes:
<style type="text/css">
div span:only-child {
color: red;
}
</style>
<div>
Test
<span>This still becomes red :(</span>
</div>
<div>
<span>This becomes red, as it should!</span>
</div>
<div>
<span>This does not become red - great!</span>
<span>This does not become red - great!</span>
</div>
I am trying to find a way to detect when a specific element is completely alone within its container element in a situation where I am unable to introduce new classes.
Is there a way to achieve this with CSS?
Is there a way to achieve this with CSS?
Unfortunately, not.
Included in an old revision of the CSS Working Group "mistakes" list is missing the idea that..
No naked text mixing with elements. All raw text should have an addressable, stylable element wrapping it, created by CSS if necessary.
Current list
Text Nodes are not element and CSS can't select (or ignore) elements that don't exist.
So, it's probably best practice to always use a text element when incorporating text in a page...you never know when you might need to style it.
div:nth-child(2) span {
color: red;
}

I have the top bar of my page set up as follows: Home | Contact Us etc..
It lies within a p tag inside a div id.
How would i go about setting up the :hover css on each link without having to separate them into different classes such as how I have them at the moment. Is it possible?
I don't think i used the correct css because i couldn't position them correctly without having to use different padding parameters for each class which makes the spacing look inaccurate.
via codepen: http://codepen.io/Hafkamp/pen/jabmE
html:
<div id="topinfo">
<div class="home"><p>Home |</p></div>
<div class="about"><p>About |</p></div>
<div class="contactUs"><p>Contact Us |</p></div>
<div class="map"><p>Map |</p></div>
</div><!--/topinfo tag-->
css:
.home p{padding-right:250px;}
#topbar .home p:hover{color:rgba(255,255,255,1)}
Is there an easier way to do this that is not so tedious. This method also causes the divider to have the hover effect which is not desirable.
The best way of defining menus in a page is to use "ul" and "li" tags. But if you still want to use with tag you have to use it this way:
`Home
About
contact
.home_link, .about_link, .contact_link{color: red;}
.home_link:hover, .about_link:hover, .contact_link:hover {color: blue;}`
I would give them all the same class, say topitem, and use a rule like this:
.topitem:hover p {
color:rgba(255,255,255,1);
cursor:pointer;
}
Although really, I would get rid of the interior <p> tag and reduce the selector to .topitem:hover – the text is already wrapped in a <div>, so why wrap it again? (But see Zinnia's note about the convention of using <ul> and <li> instead of nested <div>s.)
Since the font tag in HTML is being deprecated in HTML5 (and I understand why) is there a clean solution for applying certain attributes and styles to only portions of a paragraph text? I'm using JavaScript to parse an XML file that relies on the fact that the font tag allows portions of wrapping text to be formatted using class-based CSS. I realize the "anchor" (a) tag could also be used for this purpose, but that way seems very backwards and unnatural.
EDIT
When I asked this question (a couple years ago now) I was failing to understand that every DOM element falls into a display category, the two primary categories being:
block - insists on taking up its own row
inline - falls in line with other inline elements or text
HTML offers two generic container elements, each of which by default adheres to one of these display values; div for block display, and span for inline display.
The span element is the perfect way to designate a certain chunk of text and give it a unique style or ID because you can wrap it around part of a larger paragraph without breaking the selected contents into a new row.
The span tag would be the best way.
Although inline CSS is typically not recommended, here is an example:
<p>
This is my <span style="font-weight:bold">paragraph</span>.
</p>
span and div are similar, but the div tag is a block element, so it will cause line-breaks. span is an inline tag that can be used inline with your text.
HTML:
<span class="yourstyle">
Text in your style
</span>
CSS:
.yourstyle {
color: red;
}
you could use a <span> tag
<p>here is your paragraph text and it goes on and on and on..... and now
lets start some <span>formatted text.</span> here is another<span>section
of formatted text</span> here is unformatted text<p>
you can either do inline styles such as <span style="color: #000000; font-family: calibri, arial, helvetica;"> or you can just apply a class to your span, like <span class="textformat1" and <span class="textformat2">. then just apply different css rules based on the class.
.textformat1 {
color: red;
}
.textformat2 {
color: blue;
}
hope this helps
Always use css files to hold your code which will be considered "universal" for each element you set. When you want to set for a specific, lets say <span> element. You would do just as Adam Plocher said above, use the style="" attribute for the <span>element.
I've got a DIV I want to hide, but I cannot give it a specific ID... actually I cannot change the text of the DIV, since it is retrieved from a database, but I can add some html before it AND I know the exact text content of the DIV.
It's something like:
<div class="this_div">content_of_this_div</div>
So, I thought that maybe looking for the specific content, then taking the div and incapsulating it in a hidden div could work... or something similar... any idea?
thanks
If you can insert other HTML around it then you can use another div to hide it
Using CSS and HTML
.hidden { display: none; }
...
<div class="hidden"><div class="this_div">content_of_this_div</div></div>
Using HTML and Inline CSS
<div style="display: none;"><div class="this_div">content_of_this_div</div></div>
Wrap it in your own div would seem most sensible.
<div id="mydiv">
<div class="this_div">content_of_this_div</div>
</div>
then hide your div:
document.getElementById("mydiv").style.display="none";
Or, use jQuery. If that is only instance of class, you could do
$(".this_div").hide();
If you just want to be able to select it without giving it a specific id, you can do a number of things. Make an empty div with an id before, then use the direct sibling selector:
#divid+div {}
or use many other css selectors to accomplish same
But I do reccomend the aforementioned external div technique over this
