I have an html page with divs that have id(s) of the form s1, s2 and so on.
there is another simple way to select particular elements in css too...
#s1, #s2, #s3 {
// set css attributes here
}
if you only have a few elements to choose from, and dont want to bother with classes, this will work easily too.
As complement of this answer you can use $
to get the end matches and *
to get matches anywhere in the value name.
Matches anywhere: .col-md
, .left-col
, .col
, .tricolor
, etc.
[class*="col"]
Matches at the beginning: .col-md
, .col-sm-6
, etc.
[class^="col-"]
Matches at the ending: .left-col
, .right-col
, etc.
[class$="-col"]
You can' just add a class to each of your DIVs and apply the rule to the class in this way:
HTML:
<div class="myclass" id="s1">...</div>
<div class="myclass" id="s2">...</div>
CSS:
//css
.myclass
{
...
}
Try my generic CSS regular expression
(([a-z]{5,6}.*?\))|([\d.+-]?)(?![a-z\s#.()%])(\d?\.?\d?)?[a-z\d%]+)|(url\([/"'][a-z:/.]*['")]\))|(rgb|hsl)a?\(\d+%?,?\s?\d+%?,?\s?\d+%?(,\s?\d+\.?\d?)?\)|(#(\w|[\d]){3,8})|([\w]{3,8}(?=.*-))

First of all, there are many, many ways of matching items within a HTML document. Start with this reference to see some of the available selectors/patterns which you can use to apply a style rule to an element(s).
http://www.w3.org/TR/selectors/
Match all div
s which are direct descendants of #main
.
#main > div
Match all div
s which are direct or indirect descendants of #main
.
#main div
Match the first div
which is a direct descendant of #sections
.
#main > div:first-child
Match a div
with a specific attribute.
#main > div[foo="bar"]
I usually use *
when I want to get all the strings that contain the wanted characters.
*
used in regex, replaces all characters.
Used in SASS or CSS would be something like [id*="s"]
and it will get all DOM elements with id "s......".
/* add red color to all div with id s .... elements */
div[id^="s"] {
color: red;
}
