I have always wonder why this wouldn't work as it would make so much sense.
CSS:
#button1:hover {
background: green;
#button2 {
background: red;
}
}
HTML
<button id="button1"></button>
<button id="button2"></button>
If I hover over Button1, Button2's background should also change.
Is there a workaround to this other than the use of Javascript?
You can use the adjacent selector,
#button1:hover {
Background: green;
}
#button1:hover + #button2 {
Background: red;
}
Have a look at all the css selectors: http://css-tricks.com/almanac/
Oh by the way it's only possible to apply css on hover to elements after the hovered element. Parent elements and elements before the hovered element cannot be styled with css on hover. It's a limitation of css.
This can be done but CSS lacks the ability to provide powerful conditional statements. However if you look into SASS CSS LESS it is starting to happen.

How can I target the underlying html textarea of a vuetify v-textarea with css? In my case I want to change the line-height, font-family, color and more of the v-textarea. It doesn't work like this:
<v-textarea class="custom-textarea"></v-textarea>
.custom-textarea {
line-height: 1;
color: red;
}
I also tried several other selectors like v-textarea, .v-textarea, v-text-field__slot but none of these worked either. What is the right selector for the textarea?
In order to override a deep element, you need to access the element through deep selectors like
::v-deep .v-textarea textarea
More information about deep selectors
.custom-textarea textarea {
line-height: 1;
color: red;
}
Set id prop of text-area and apply css style by id.
<v-textarea id="input-7-2"></v-textarea>
#input-7-2 {
color:white;
background-color: green;
line-height:1;
}

I was just playing around with CSS and noticed an interesting scenario for which I couldn't really find an explanation. Maybe some of you have the answer for this.
I have a div element with an inline styling
<div id="text-sample" style="overflow:hidden;">This is a sample text to test the CSS behavior of inline styling</div>
My CSS
#text-sample {
width:200px;
white-space: nowrap;
}
#text-sample:hover {
overflow:visible
}
Here the hover effect is not applying. That is, the overflow: visible rule is not taking.
Note: Moving the overflow:hidden from inline style will fix the issue.
I'm looking for the reason why hover effect is not applying. Can anyone explain this scenario?
All else being equal, inline styles take precedence over styles applied via stylesheet rules. In your case, when hovering, the overflow: visible is invoked via the stylesheet rule, but that cannot override the inline style. If necessary, you could try !important.
#text-sample {
width: 200px;
white-space: nowrap;
}
#text-sample:hover {
overflow: visible !important;
}
<div id="text-sample" style="overflow:hidden;">
This is a sample text to test the CSS behavior of inline styling
</div>
But it would be easier simply to specify overflow: hidden in the #text-sample stylesheet rule, instead of giving it inline.
Your inline style will always override your external CSS.
You can use !important in :hover
#text-sample {
width:200px;
white-space: nowrap;
}
#text-sample:hover {
overflow:visible!important;
}
Inline styles take precedence over style sheets. There are two ways to change that: using JavaScript or using !important in the style sheet.
#text-sample:hover {
overflow:visible !important;
}
In CSS, there's something called Specificity. Simply said, something like
#id { color: red; }
would take precedence over something like
.blue { color: red; }
when having something like <div id="id" class="blue">. See example below.
This is because an ID selector (#) is interpreted as more important than a class. In the same manner, an equally specific selector with a later declaration (later in the file) takes precedence and the more specific your selector gets, the more important it is.
For your example: An inline-style takes precedence over anything written in a CSS file (unless using !important). I believe the :hover does not change anything on that fact.
For the detailed rules look my link above.
div {
width:200px;
white-space: nowrap;
}
#text-sample:hover,
#sample-2:hover {
overflow:visible;
}
#sample-2 {
overflow: hidden;
}
#foo {
color: red;
}
.blue {
color: blue;
}
<div id="text-sample" style="overflow:hidden;">This is a sample text to test the CSS behavior of inline styling</div>
<div id="sample-2">This is a sample text to test the CSS behavior of inline styling</div>
<div id="foo" class="blue">foo</div>
EDIT
As mentioned in comments, Specificity does not apply to inline styles. Nevertheless, inline styles are taking precedence over anything in a CSS declarations in files. However, as soon as you move the rule into the same CSS file (as you mentioned will work), the :hover is more important than the other rule since it is more specific in the moment you're hovering.
I am writing a stylesheet to extend a base stylesheet whose CSS has many pseudo classes applied to certain elements. I would like my stylesheet to override some of these styles with a single style that is applied to an element no matter what state it is in, whether hovered on, focussed etc.
For example, the base stylesheet might have the styles
.classname {
color:#f00;
}
.classname:hover {
color:#0f0;
}
.classname:active {
color:#00f;
}
but adding the following after these styles does not override the pseudo states...
.classname {
color:#fff;
}
The following works, but it feels a lot of code for something that seems simple.
.classname,
.classname:active,
.classname:hover,
.classname:focus,
.classname:visited,
.classname:valid{
color:#fff;
}
Likewise, I know an !important would work, but that's normally a warning sign of a poorly structured stylesheet.
Is there anything along the lines of a .classname:* that would cover every possible state, or some way to simply remove all pseudo classes?
If you are able to put the classes inside some wrapper id you can prevent the pseudo-classes to take effect due to specificity:
body {
background: black;
}
.classname {
color:#f00;
}
.classname:hover {
color:#0f0;
}
.classname:active {
color:#00f;
}
#a .classname {
color:#fff;
}
<div class="classname">all pseudo works</div>
<div id="a">
<div class="classname">none of the pseudo works</div>
</div>
I think, it could be solved with :any pseudo-class.
Google
<style>
a:link { color: blue; }
a:hover { color: red; }
a:-webkit-any(a) { color: green; }
</style>

Edit:
Actually, as I discovered, this answer isn't very accurate. (Despite it was upvoted 4 times, lol).
First of all, you don't need :any fot this task. You need :any-link.
The second point is that :any itself is a former name of :matches. So, in our terminology we should use terms :any-link and :matches and don't use term :any.

I haven't edited the code itself, so fix it yourself according to this new information.
Is it possible to add conditional formatting to change class on using hover effect on a div:
.resize:hover {
height: 360px;
z-index: 1;
.font_white {
color: blue;
}
}
.font_white{
color: white;
}
Is it possible to override font_white while hovering div with resize class? These classes are independent div's.
No it's not, not using pure CSS that is.
You can use JS, but without the code of your markup, it's hard to say what the best way is.
(Of course, if the font color is to be applied inside the div you hover, it is doable using CSS only, although not the way you describe it. But I assume you want to trigger style changes across the page by hovering a div.)
There is no generic way to achieve that with CSS.
If you can write a selector that matches both the element that is a member of the resize class and the element that is a member of the font_white class (which you would do using a combinator such as descendant, child or sibling) then you can use the combinator to achieve it.
For example:
.resize:hover ~ .font_white { ... }
would work if your HTML looked something like:
<button class="resize">Hover Me</button>
<section id="first">...</section>
<section id="second" class="font_white">...</section>
<section id="third" class="font_white">...</section>
You would need to select apropriate combinators for your particular HTML.
If you rewrite your CSS, you'll see that your desired effect is possible - and achievable without redefining the style declarations of your class.
Example:
.primary-text {
color: white;
}
.resize:hover {
height: 360px;
z-index: 1;
}
.resize:hover .primary-text {
color: blue;
}
I have this CSS Script here
#social_side_links li:nth-child(3):hover {
image
}
but it does not work....my image does not show up and yes the path is absolutely right...do I need to write this like
#social_side_links li:hover nth-child(3) {
This should work fine.
http://jsfiddle.net/EeHdF/
#social_side_links li:nth-child(3):hover {
border:1px solid #000;
}
Chaining :nth-child and :hover as you do here should work just fine. If you're using IE6, however, only the last pseudo-class in the chain will be recognized.
I know you feel the image is correct, but try another css definition like border (above) to see if it is an issue with your definition or the selector.
