How to Select Elements in CSS ?

Selecting elements with CSS is a crucial aspect of styling web pages. CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) provides various selectors that allow you to target specific HTML elements and apply styling rules to them.

CSS selectors are used to target HTML elements. They can be based on element types, classes, IDs, attributes, and more

Features:

• Element Type: Selects elements based on their HTML tag (e.g., p, h1, div).
• Class Selector: Targets elements with a specific class using a dot (.) followed by the class name.
• ID Selector: Targets a specific element with a unique ID using a hash (#) followed by the ID.
• Combining Selectors: Selectors can be combined for more specific targeting (e.g., div.myClass).
• Attribute Selectors: Allows selecting elements based on their attributes.

Syntax:

/* Selecting by element type */
p {
  color: blue;
}

/* Selecting by class */
.myClass {
  font-size: 16px;
}

/* Selecting by ID */
#myId {
  background-color: #eee;
}
