Practical Examples Of The Css :Has() Parent Selector
The :has() pseudo-class selects an element based on what it contains or what follows it. It finally gives CSS a parent selector. Here are practical examples you can use today.
Style a card only when it has an image
css">.lotgrafix-card:has( img ) {
display: grid;
grid-template-columns: 200px 1fr;
}
Highlight a field wrapper when the input is focused
.lotgrafix-field:has( input:focus ) {
border-color: orangered;
box-shadow: 0 0 0 3px rgba( 255, 69, 0, 0.2 );
}
Show an error style when the input is invalid
.lotgrafix-field:has( input:user-invalid ) label {
color: red;
}
Style a label when its checkbox is checked
.lotgrafix-option:has( input:checked ) {
background: #fff3ee;
border-color: orangered;
}
Lock page scroll when a modal is open
body:has( dialog[open] ) {
overflow: hidden;
}
Change layout based on the number of children
.lotgrafix-grid:has( .item:nth-child( 4 ) ) {
grid-template-columns: repeat( 2, 1fr );
}
Select the previous sibling
Combine :has() with the next sibling combinator to style an element based on the one after it.
.lotgrafix-item:has( + .lotgrafix-item:hover ) {
opacity: 0.6;
}
Hide an empty section
.lotgrafix-section:not( :has( *:not( h2 ) ) ) {
display: none;
}
