CSS Selectors

CSS selectors are used to 'find' (or select) the HTML elements you want to style.

We can divide CSS selectors into five categories:

  • Simple selectors (select elements based on name, id, class)
  • Combinator selectors (select elements based on a specific relationship between them)
  • Pseudo-class selectors (select elements based on a certain state)
  • Pseudo-elements selectors (select and style a part of an element)
  • Attribute selectors (select elements based on an attribute or attribute value)

Let's take an example of id, class and tag selector : 

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang='en' xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>

<head>

    <meta charset='utf-8' />

    <title>Selector</title>

    <style>

        h1{

            text-decoration:underline;

        }

        .text-center{

            text-align:center;

        }

        #para{

            color:white;

            background:black;

        }

    </style>

</head>

<body>

    <h1>Tag Selector</h1>

    <p id='para'>ID selector</p>

    <p class='text-center'>Class selector</p>

</body>

</html>

Hope this information will be helpful for you.

Happy Coding!
