multiple css expression IE - css

I want to apply drop shadow filter only if the input type is Checkbox.
Following is working
input {
filter: expression("progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=100)");
}
However I want to include this.type=='checkbox' in it. Some thing like this
input {
filter: expression(this.type=='checkbox' ? "progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=100)":"");
}
This does not work.

You should only use expression if there is no other choice.
Try this instead:
input[type="checkbox"] {
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=100);
}
This is using the attribute selector.
You also said you're trying to apply a drop shadow - you'll have to change that Alpha filter to the DropShadow one.

How I exclude more than one element with CSS selector group? [duplicate]

I'm trying to select input elements of all types except radio and checkbox.
Many people have shown that you can put multiple arguments in :not, but using type doesn't seem to work anyway I try it.
form input:not([type="radio"], [type="checkbox"]) {
/* css here */
}
Any ideas?
Why :not just use two :not:
input:not([type="radio"]):not([type="checkbox"])
Yes, it is intentional
If you're using SASS in your project, I've built this mixin to make it work the way we all want it to:
#mixin not($ignorList...) {
//if only a single value given
#if (length($ignorList) == 1){
//it is probably a list variable so set ignore list to the variable
$ignorList: nth($ignorList,1);
}
//set up an empty $notOutput variable
$notOutput: '';
//for each item in the list
#each $not in $ignorList {
//generate a :not([ignored_item]) segment for each item in the ignore list and put them back to back
$notOutput: $notOutput + ':not(#{$not})';
}
//output the full :not() rule including all ignored items
&#{$notOutput} {
#content;
}
}
it can be used in 2 ways:
Option 1: list the ignored items inline
input {
/*non-ignored styling goes here*/
#include not('[type="radio"]','[type="checkbox"]'){
/*ignored styling goes here*/
}
}
Option 2: list the ignored items in a variable first
$ignoredItems:
'[type="radio"]',
'[type="checkbox"]'
;
input {
/*non-ignored styling goes here*/
#include not($ignoredItems){
/*ignored styling goes here*/
}
}
Outputted CSS for either option
input {
/*non-ignored styling goes here*/
}
input:not([type="radio"]):not([type="checkbox"]) {
/*ignored styling goes here*/
}
Starting from CSS Selectors 4 using multiple arguments in the :not selector becomes possible (see here).
In CSS3, the :not selector only allows 1 selector as an argument. In level 4 selectors, it can take a selector list as an argument.
Example:
/* In this example, all p elements will be red, except for
the first child and the ones with the class special. */
p:not(:first-child, .special) {
color: red;
}
Unfortunately, browser support is somewhat new.
I was having some trouble with this, and the "X:not():not()" method wasn't working for me.
I ended up resorting to this strategy:
INPUT {
/* styles */
}
INPUT[type="radio"], INPUT[type="checkbox"] {
/* styles that reset previous styles */
}
It's not nearly as fun, but it worked for me when :not() was being pugnacious. It's not ideal, but it's solid.
If you install the "cssnext" Post CSS plugin, then you can safely start using the syntax that you want to use right now.
Using cssnext will turn this:
input:not([type="radio"], [type="checkbox"]) {
/* css here */
}
Into this:
input:not([type="radio"]):not([type="checkbox"]) {
/* css here */
}

Can I change value of inline data attribute (data-parallax) using css?

On a Wordpress site, I want to turn off the theme parallax effect for certain pages. I'm not sure what library is used and I'd prefer to have a go at it via CSS. Code is:
<div id="primary" class=" page-header header-small" data-parallax="active" style="transform: translate3d(0px, 0px, 0px);">...</div>
So my guess was I would be able to target the "active" the same way you override inline [style]:
.page-child #primary[data-parallax] {
content:'none';
}
This didn't work so I went for the simpler
.page-child #primary[style] {
transform: none;
}
My question for the future is – is there a css way to target data- values?
To target the div element with data-parallax attribute set to "active" specifically, and turn off translate3d transform, use the following code:
[data-parallax="active"] {
transform: translate3d(0);
}
To answer your question generally, these are the available attribute selectors you can use to target the element:
[data-value] {
/* Attribute exists. */
}
[data-value="foo"] {
/* Attribute has exact value "foo". */
}
[data-value*="foo"] {
/* Attribute value contains value "foo" somewhere in it. */
}
[data-value~="foo"] {
/* Attribute has value "foo" in a space-separated list somewhere. */
}
[data-value^="foo"] {
/* Attribute value starts with "foo". */
}
[data-value|="foo"] {
/* Attribute value starts with "foo" in a dash-separated list. */
}
[data-value$="foo"] {
/* Attribute value ends with "foo". */
}
The answer is yes
Css gave us a possibility to manipulate CSS based on a value assigned to data-attribute.
With that being said. Here is an example you could use to achieve it.
[data-parallax="foo"] //Where value is exactly foo

Any selector for checking if an attribute name starts with a value?

I know you can select the elements if the attribute exists
[data-value] { /* rules */ }
Or that its values starts with some val
[data-value^="foo"] { /* rules */ }
But, can I check if any elements contain contains a prefixed attribute?
[^data-] { /* something like it? /*}
This question came when I was trying to query all attributes of the page that has a prefixed aria atrittube. eg. aria-hidden, aria-live...
Unfortunately it is not possible to do what you want with just CSS selectors, you would have to specify each attribute that you want to include. For example:
[aria-hidden], [aria-live]
{
}
It would be possible however to do something with javascript, so you may want to look into that if it's an option for you.

Can I select empty textareas with CSS?

Is there a way that I can select a textarea such that $('#id_of_textarea').val() in jQuery will be ''? I tried using :empty. I saw that CSS provides a way to select empty inputs because the text is in the value attribute ([value=""]). Is there an attribute for the text in a textarea?
I'm looking for a selector that will work with CSS, not just jQuery.
Best solution I can think of is a CSS 3 workaround. Set the field to required (and unset it on submit if need be). Then you can use
textarea:invalid { /* style here... probably want to remove box-shadow and such */ }
this works in recent browsers except edge (at the moment):
textarea:placeholder-shown {
/* this should be active only when area is empty and placeholder shown */
}
so with jQuery for example you can pick all empty textareas:
$('textarea:placeholder-shown').val()
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/CSS/:placeholder-shown
If you're using React, then this is the solution:
textarea:not(:empty) {
// Apply css here
}
For instance,
/* Apply style when textarea contains text */
textarea:not(:empty) {
border: 6px solid blue;
padding: 6px;
}
Working demo:
Textarea - Select empty textarea using CSS
Note: While this works perfectly in React (because of re-painting caused by state update), It does not provide the same response if implemented using Vanilla HTML + CSS.
This works fine, as with input:
<textarea name="comment" id="comment" class="authority_body-input" data-val="{$form.comment}" onkeyup="this.setAttribute('data-val', this.value);">
textarea.authority_body-input:not([data-val=""]):not(:focus) {
color: red;
}
You can use the :empty css pseudo-class.
See an example in jsfiddle.
In the example there is a button for dynamically add new empty textareas to the DOM, so you can see that the new elements also are affected with the pseudo-class.
The code in the example was tested in Firefox 5.0, Opera 11.50 and Chromium 12.
Also, you can see a good description for the :empty pseudo-class here.
For those who are using AngularJS, you can use ng-class in your view to add a class to your textarea to know if it is empty or not.
HTML :
<textarea ng-model="myForm.myTextArea"
ng-class="(myForm.myTextArea.length)?'not_empty':'empty'">
</textarea>
CSS :
textarea.empty {
background-color:red;
}
textarea.not_empty {
background-color:blue;
}
Here is a jsfiddle.
