Hi I am having a label which is having a value but I need to add different styles to that words.
<label> 00001 M2 Available </label>
label{
font-size:15px;
}
The font size 15px should be applied to 0001 only. Can anyone help me out regarding this how to achieve using css.
The only way that this is possible, currently, is to wrap that first-word (or whichever other words) in a specific element and style that element:
<label><span>0001</span> M2 Available</label>
label span {
font-size: 15px;
}
You can style the ::first-letter and the ::first-line pseudo-elements with CSS but, for some reason, the W3C chose not, or didn't think, to allow a ::first-word pseudo-element.
It appears, from testing (in Chromium 28/Win XP) that using the ::first-line pseudo-element will style the first-word (though I don't think this is a specified behaviour), so it might not be reliable cross-browser:
label {
display: inline-block;
}
label::first-line {
font-size: 2em;
}

CSS Pseudo-elements.
First of all, David's solution is perfect, but if you do not want to add any extra elements, than you can use content: "" property.. if still you can't use this, than you need to go JavaScript
Demo
label.class_name:before {
content: "00001";
color: red;
}
Check the js fiddle
http://jsfiddle.net/9v2n4/
<label> <span style="font-size:15px">00001</span> M2 Available </label>
HTML:
<label><p class="p01">00001</p> M2 Available</label>
CSS:
p.p01{
font-size:15px;
}
Give your label span with a class <label><span class="labelItem"> 00001</span> M2 Available </label>. then style that class .labelItem { font-size: 15px; }

How can I write :hover and :visited condition for a:before?
I'm trying a:before:hover, but it's not working.
This depends on what you're actually trying to do.
If you simply wish to apply styles to a :before pseudo-element when the a element matches a pseudo-class, you need to write a:hover:before or a:visited:before instead. Notice the pseudo-element comes after the pseudo-class (and in fact, at the very end of the entire selector). Notice also that they are two different things; calling them both "pseudo-selectors" is going to confuse you once you run into syntax problems such as this one.
If you're writing CSS3, you can denote a pseudo-element with double colons to make this distinction clearer. Hence, a:hover::before and a:visited::before. But if you're developing for legacy browsers such as IE8 and older, then you can get away with using single colons just fine.
This specific order of pseudo-classes and pseudo-elements is stated in the spec:
One pseudo-element may be appended to the last sequence of simple selectors in a selector.
A sequence of simple selectors is a chain of simple selectors that are not separated by a combinator. It always begins with a type selector or a universal selector. No other type selector or universal selector is allowed in the sequence.
A simple selector is either a type selector, universal selector, attribute selector, class selector, ID selector, or pseudo-class.
A pseudo-class is a simple selector. A pseudo-element, however, is not, even though it resembles a simple selector.
However, for user-action pseudo-classes such as :hover1, if you need this effect to apply only when the user interacts with the pseudo-element itself but not the a element, then this is not possible other than through some obscure layout-dependent workaround. As implied by the text, standard CSS pseudo-elements cannot currently have pseudo-classes. In that case, you will need to apply :hover to an actual child element instead of a pseudo-element.
1 Of course, this does not apply to link pseudo-classes such as :visited as in the question, since pseudo-elements aren't links.
Write a:hover::before instead of a::before:hover: example.
To change a menu link's text on mouseover (different language text on hover), here is the
jsfiddle example
HTML:
<a align="center" href="#"><span>kannada</span></a>
CSS:
span {
font-size: 12px;
}
a {
color: green;
}
a:hover span {
display: none;
}
a:hover:before {
color: red;
font-size: 24px;
content: "ಕನ್ನಡ";
}
Try to use .card-listing:hover::after, hover, and after using ::. It will work.
Or you can set pointer-events:none to your a element and pointer-event:all to your a:before element, and then add hover CSS to a element:
a{
pointer-events: none;
}
a:before{
pointer-events: all
}
a:hover:before{
background: blue;
}
BoltClock's answer is correct. The only thing I want to append is that if you want to only select the pseudo element, put in a span.
For example:
<li><span data-icon='u'></span> List Element </li>
instead of:
<li> data-icon='u' List Element</li>
This way you can simply say
ul [data-icon]:hover::before {color: #f7f7f7;}
which will only highlight the pseudo element, not the entire li element.
You can also restrict your action to just one class using the right pointed bracket (">"), as I have done in this code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Document</title>
<style type="text/css">
span {
font-size: 12px;
}
a {
color: green;
}
.test1>a:hover span {
display: none;
}
.test1>a:hover:before {
color: red;
content: "Apple";
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class="test1">
<span>Google</span>
</div>
<div class="test2">
<span>Apple</span>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Note: The hover:before switch works only on the .test1 class
I'm trying to use a CSS :first-letter pseudo-element in a web page to enlarge and colorize the first letter of a paragraph (W), the only thing is that it's in a DIV tag and it's not displaying correctly. I have been to W3C schools and looked at the following here at Stackoverflow (css selector: first paragraph's first letter inside a div and css first-letter exclude other tags), but these don't seem to resolve my problem (more than likely I don't have the CSS setup correctly is my guess). Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.
Here is the CSS I'm using:
div homepara:first-letter {
font-size: 36px;
color: darkblue;
}
Here is the HTML I'm using:
<div class="homepara">Welcome to This Test Page.
</div>
Try this: div.homepara:first-letter. When you want to address a div with a class add a . between then.
Example
Your CSS selector isn't written correctly. Should be:
div.homepara:first-letter {
font-size: 36px;
color: darkblue;
}
div.homepara:first-letter
you just missed a '.' before the class name and there should not be space between the .classname and the div
i.e.. div.classname

This question already has answers here:
CSS text-decoration property cannot be overridden by child element [duplicate]
(2 answers)
Closed 9 years ago.
Apologies if this is a duplicate, but I'm enough of a CSS neophyte that I don't even know exactly what to search for.
I'm trying to modify text-decoration within a block by adding a span, and it's not working. How come? I can add a new text-decoration within the span, but I can't subtract the old one.
<h1 class="strikethrough">
stricken<span class="no-strikethrough"> no strike</span>
</h1>
http://jsfiddle.net/zV3ga/2/
Is there a way I can achieve my goal? I'd like to inherit all the properties of the h1 except the text-decoration, so I'd really prefer to have my "no strike" text inside that tag.
I have no idea why these people are saying it isn't possible. This is entirely possible via CSS.
http://jsfiddle.net/austinpray/y5bRS/
.strikethrough {
text-decoration: line-through;
color: blue;
}
.no-strikethrough {
display:inline-block;
text-decoration: none;
color: red;
}
.no-strikethrough:before {
content: '\00a0';
}
Strikethrough applies to the entire parent element. It's rendered the full width of the parent, no way to "turn off" for a child.
Any reason not to use HTML markup?
<h1>Partial <strike>stricken</strike></h1>
HTML5:
<h1>Partial <del>stricken</del></h1>
I think you are trying to keep the first part with a atrile and the second part without a strike.
So do this
<h1>
<span class="strikethrough">stricken</span> no strike
</h1>
And one more thing.
Using hyphens in the class name is fine and dandy if youre just in CSS but when you move to Javascript that will cause problems (as far as my knowlege goes). So practice that way
You can't do this in its current form, you are putting a strike on the H1 which is the parent of span, you can't have a child reverse it.
<h1 >
<span class="strikethrough">stricken</span><span class="no-strikethrough"> no strike</span>
</h1>
I do not know if it is useful for you but you may try striking span's inner.
<h1 class="no-strikethrough">
<span class="strikethrough">stricken</span> no strike
</h1>
Try it is the most optimized approach
<h1>stricken
<span class="test">no strike</span>
</h1>
.test {
text-decoration: line-through !important;
color: blue;
}
h1 {
text-decoration: none;
color: red;
}
Lets say this markup:
<div id="socialMedia">
<a class="Twitter">Twitter</a>
</div>
What i want is only to be visible the first letter of the text (in this case, just a T)
(Actually I won't end up using it but I am curious about this; sure can be helpfull later)
So this was my a attempt:
#socialMedia .Twitter{
display:none;
}
#socialMedia .Twitter:first-letter {
display: block !important;
}
I was able to check that it won't achieve it. Question is why? and is there some work-around this?
-EDIT-
We are looking for IE=+7/8 version capable solutions..
Salut
Try something like this:
.Twitter {
font-size: 0;
}
.Twitter:first-letter {
font-size: 12px;
}
<div class="Twitter">Twitter</div>
Maybe this is not the best solution, but it works.
Edit: Disclaimer: this does not work according to comments. Please don't use as-is without checking it fits your needs.
If you check the specification for the :first-letter pseudo-element, you'll notice the following:
The :first-letter pseudo-element must select the first letter of the first line of a block, if it is not preceded by any other content (such as images or inline tables) on its line.
The important word here is "block."
You are trying to use the pseudo-element on an <a/> tag with class of Twitter. By default, anchor tags are inline elements (not block level elements).
For your given markup, one solution to your problem would be to style the anchor this way:
.Twitter {
display:block;
visibility:hidden;
}
.Twitter:first-letter {
visibility:visible;
}
I'm not sure exactly what you are going for, but that is good enough for experimental purposes. Check out a demo here: http://jsfiddle.net/H7jhF/.
Another way is to use color: transparent
.twitter{
display: block;
color: transparent;
}
.twitter:first-letter{
color: #000;
}
<div id="socialMedia">
<a class="twitter">Twitter</a>
</div>
JSFiddle
However, this won't work for lte IE8.
References:
IE7 IE8 IE9 color:transparent property
color: transparent is not working in Internet Explorer
What you're doing is like hiding a parent element and trying to show one of its children, it won't work because the parent's style overrides it. The parent element also has to be a block level element for it to work. Like a div or p tag, or display: block; on the a tag.
Here's something using color:
HTML
<div id="socialMedia">
<a class="Twitter">Twitter</a>
</div>
CSS
body {
background-color:#FFF;
}
.Twitter{
display: block;
color:#FFF;
}
.Twitter:first-letter {
color:#000;
}
shoot the content off the page and show the letter using dynamic content:
.twitter{
text-indent:-9999px;
display:block;
position:relative;
}
.twitter:before,.twitter::before{
content:"T";
position:absolute;
width:10px;
height:15px;
z-index:100;
text-indent:9999px;
}
at play in this fiddle:
http://jsfiddle.net/jalbertbowdenii/H7jhF/67/
Why not just use JavaScript and split the string into an array and use the first item in the array. Or charAt()
The pure-CSS answers use visibility and color tricks to hide the remaining letters, but they are still present and affecting layout. It could cause layout issues, e.g. if you wish to float the element and put something beside it.
I found a funny way to do this without hidden elements. The trick is to shrink the entire word down to almost nothing and then blow up just the first letter. It's a bit like OP was trying to do, but it works because it's operating on a continuous spectrum rather than display: none which just shuts down anything inside it. (Kind of an analogue > digital situation.)
Demo
HTML:
<div>Ding Dong</div> and other stuff
CSS:
div {
font-size: 0.0000016px;
float: left;
}
div::first-letter {
color: red;
font-size: 10000000em;
}
Result:
Here's what I do:
.Twitter{
display:block;
width:1ch;
overflow:hidden;
white-space: nowrap;
}
