I am starting a new project, so i thought to start using Reset.css in my projects. i got the concept of using Reset.css, but one thing is bothering me is that does if affects my other style applied on the same element.. like in reset.css div have 0 margin and 0 padding... and if i apply margin to some of the divs in my stylesheet, wont it get disturbed?
Please clear my this doubt
Not if the style applied to your other divs is more SPECIFIC.

In general any style applied using a class, or an id in the selector is going to take precedence over one which doesn't. But there are many other rules in this area you should become aware of.
i.e.
div.myStyle {...}
will always overrule
div {...}
You have to include reset.css first and then include your own stylesheet file. and be sure that your styles wont be overwritten by reset.php.
What you neeed to do is load reset.css as a first style sheet.
Anything else loaded after it will be overriding reset.css
e.g if you specify in reset css: p { margin: 0px; padding: 0px}
and than load style.css with style: p {margin: 2px; padding: 2px}
The style load as last one will be used.
I personaly use technic with
* { margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: none; list-style: none;}
Put it at the top of css file and job done:) No need for extra .css fil.

I have a form with mat-errors that I'm trying to space out. I know I can simply space out the form fields themselves, but I've been trying to add margin/padding/border to mat-error elements, and they all get applied, but they don't move.
As far as the CSS goes, I've tried most things I can think of to force it to move. The styles are applied but nothing is actually changing.
mat-error{
display: block !important;
position: relative !important;
margin-bottom: 40px !important;
padding-bottom: 40px !important;
z-index: 999;
}
Why is this happening?
Change your css to class: .mat-error instead of mat-error.
In order to change styles in angular materials you should define a global stylesheet declared in the styles array of your angular.json configuration file. and custom all mat styles within.
In Styles.css:
.mat-error {
color: aqua;
}
The result will be:

Vuetify v-app-bar has default css classeses v-toolbar__content and v-toolbar__extension that adds 16px padding on x-axis and 4px on y-axis that I want to get rid of.
I have tried overriding these classes in my css like below
.v-toolbar__content {
padding: 0px !important;
}
But it doesn't work. Anybody aware of some trick that would help get rid of the padding in v-app-bar?
In scoped styles, you cannot access child components directly. You need to use deep selector like this.
/deep/ .v-toolbar__content {
padding: 0px !important;
}
Or if you want to target using child selector, you can do:
.parent-class >>> .v-toolbar__content {
padding: 0px !important;
}
I recommend modifying the vuetify SCSS variables.
According to the v-toolbar API we can modify $toolbar-content-padding-y and $toolbar-content-padding-x in our variables style file.
$toolbar-content-padding-x: 0;
$toolbar-content-padding-y: 0;
If you haven't configured a variable file, please follow the SASS variables guide.
I have a small problem and I'm not sure there is a real way to do what I want easily.
I have multiple stylesheets available:
a Bootstrap stylesheet is loaded first
Multiple modules are loaded
In one module, there is a rule like this:
.container .container {
padding-left: 0px;
padding-right: 0px;
width: auto;
}
This effectively prevent me from using stacked containers in my layout. I'd like to disable this rule.
I can technically override it before or after it is declared but I don't want to reset the styles... Let say I just want this rule to cease to "work".
I tried to override it with:
.container .container {
padding-left: inherit !important;
padding-right: inherit !important;
width: inherit !important;
}
But that doesn't work. What I'd like to achieve is effectively disable a style in the stylesheet chain since the bootstrap has multiple styles with media queries, it could be a bit complicated to reapply the bootstrap styles for the container after the css stylesheet that breaks my styles is loaded.
As far as I know there is no way to do that other than reapplying the styles.
I know there's a few CSS Reset tools out there, Eric's and Yahoo's to name 2.
However, when I'm using certain tags (I think they're called tags?) such as "li" and "ul", I get some extras in the User Agent Stylesheet. Some of these are:
-webkit-margin-before: 1em;
-webkit-margin-after: 1em;
-webkit-margin-start: 0px;
-webkit-margin-end: 0px;
-webkit-padding-start: 40px;
I'm wondering if there's a reset stylesheet out there that deals -webkit etc?
I have searched for one, but with now luck.
While these styles are applied by Webkit, they are over-ruled by margin: 0; padding: 0; located in the CSS resets. You don't have to worry about them.
Note: Although Chrome (Version 27.0.1453.116 m) Developer Tools does not display the user agent styles with strikethrough, the computed styles do reflect that explicit margin and padding values override.
Acctually if you are working with
<ul> in your markup the
reset margin: 0, padding: 0; do not overwrite the -webkit-padding-start: 40px;
I solved the problem by adding to my reset file a
ul {
-webkit-padding-start: 0px;
}
I had the same problem with li and ul, and found the following solution: in my CSS, I had an attribute for the li of my list which was display: inline. I replaced it with float: left and it works. I don't know why...
If user agent stylesheet is being called, it is because the property that is called for / needed was not properly defined in your css stylesheet.
Error check your CSS using a tool like CSS Lint and fix any problems that might be detected before trying workarounds.
I was having this same problem with my <h3> tag. I tried setting margin:0;, but it didn't work.
I found that I was habitually commenting out lines in my css by using //. I never noticed it because it hadn't caused any problems before. But when I used // in the line before declaring <h3>, it caused the browser to skip the declaration completely. When I traded out // for /**/ I was able to adjust the margin.
Moral of this story: Always use proper commenting syntax!
My first post here and unfortunately it won't be that exciting and I need an answer that includes IE6.
To get space between paragraphs, I'm styling my <p> tags like this:
div.content_cms p {
margin-top: 0px;
margin-bottom: 15px;
padding: 0px 15px 0px 0px;
}
The margin bottom to space the paragraphs. This of course works fine. But then I also need to style a link with html is this:
<p>Text </p>
When there is a link as in the example above, I don't want the margin-bottom to be applied. I tried to fix it with this:
div.content_cms p a {
margin-bottom: 0px !important;
}
Which of course doesn't work.
I'm adding a class to the <a> tags with jQuery so I can automatically add an icon to links. I tried adding
margin-bottom: 0px !important;
to the class I'm adding with jQuery but that didn't work either.
What's the best way to style spacing between <p>paragraphs</p> with text but not paragraphs with links?
Thank you.
You can easily do this with jQuery:
$('p').has('a').css('margin-bottom', 0);
Live demo: http://jsfiddle.net/NyjvT/
If you need to set multiple styles, then consider this:
$('p').has('a').addClass('whatever');
CSS:
p.whatever { margin-botttom:0; font-size:20px; ... }
I don't think you can.
Your best bet is to add a class to those particular <p> elements, and override the margin on those:
div.content_cms p.nomargin {
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
<p class="nomargin">Text</p>
If this is not possible on the server side, you could do some jQuery hackery to take care of it.
Maybe there's some CSS3 magic that could be used, but I'm not sure of that; and since you want IE6 support, it's out of the question anyway.
This is not possible using only CSS.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) works only down the document tree.
The reason for this is performance.

You need to use javascript for that to work.
