In doing so, I got to see a css problem that I had to correct on the leave a reply pages. Glad you found this useful. I've only had to use selectors in my sites a few times. One important one was in my old blog design: div[id] { properties here } This was because what I was working on was creating divs dynamically, and the classes and ids were different depending on the page. The order would stay the same though. The one I needed to target happened to be the only one with an id. The style above technically hits ALL divs with id's, so I was able to be more specific with something like this: #contentContainer div[id] Selectors come in handy, but I haven't had to use them all too often.

Glad you found this useful. I’ve only had to use selectors in my sites a few times. One important one was in my old blog design:

div[id] {
properties here
}

The one I needed to target happened to be the only one with an id. The style above technically hits ALL divs with id’s, so I was able to be more specific with something like this:

#contentContainer div[id]

Selectors come in handy, but I haven’t had to use them all too often.

I just recently learned about CSS selectors, but the author could not provide a context in which it would actually be useful. This puts things into perspective. I'll keep my eyes open for chances to use this. Sometimes it's tough having so many tools available to you, you know? It's knowing when to use what that gives me problems. This is really cool.
