Today I'm gonna share with you some cool css selectors.
Let's start with counter.
To style numbers in a numbered list, we need to play with properties called CSS counters. CSS counters let you adjust the appearance of content based on its location in a document.
<ul class="list">
<li>Item</li>
<li>Item</li>
<li>Item</li>
<li>Item</li>
<li>Item</li>
<li>Item</li>
</ul>
li {
font-size: 40px;
margin-bottom: 20px;
counter-increment: li;
}
.list li::before {
content: counter(li);
margin-right: 10px;
width: 50px;
height: 50px;
border-radius: 50%;
display: inline-block;
background-color: #f3b70f;
color: white;
text-align: center;
line-height: 50px;
}
::selection.
The ::selection pseudo-element applies to highlighted elements on the DOM. This is one of my favorite pseudo-elements. The syntax looks like this:
p::selection {
color: white;
background-color: green;
}
Next is the attr() function.
It's used to retrieve the value of an attribute of the selected element and use it in the stylesheet.
<h2 class="title" data-count="01">Section</h2>
<h2 class="title" data-count="02">Section</h2>
<h2 class="title" data-count="03">Section</h2>
.title {
font-size: 35px;
letter-spacing: 3px;
}
.title::before {
content: attr(data-count);
font-size: 1.2em;
color: steelblue;
margin-right: 10px;
}

<h2>Css is Awesome</h2>
h2 {
-webkit-text-fill-color: transparent;
-webkit-text-stroke: 3px tomato;
}

I knew about them so I'm going to up the stakes.
How about this:
background: background;
It's a fun trivia one that many people do not know about.
border-radius: 9e9rem;
Now that's what I call round
π
πππ now I do;)
I have plenty more of this stuff in my posts, the JS labeled loops one is a popular read
Iβll definitely check it out
Mad as this sounds. It takes the colour of your systems desktop background colour, the colour you would see without a background image.
So in other words it's different depending on which OS and platform you use.
Wow,
attr()
is new for me. Thank you for your post! Very usefulNo problem broπ

Very cool! Pseudo-classes are a secret weapon...I've used the pseudo's like hover and visited, and a few nth-child classes but I didn't know about any of the ones you listed. Thanks for sharing!
Glad to help
Not quite the colour comes from the colour behind the image, it's an old fashioned thing back in the days of xp
The last one was the one I've been looking for! before I saw this, I used four "text-shadow"s to stroke the text.
Thank you so much for showing this to DEV!
