The example below is something I constantly seeing, should have gone testing it again making sure my memory is still fresh, but I am a bit lazy right now as I haven't had my coffee yet.
"The :first-child pseudo-class represents an element that is the first child of some other element.". I have often used li:first-child or li a:first child in different section of a page, why is that I can get the first-child in, say, #hdr li:first-child .sidebox li:first-child (and it applies to all sidebox sections) .sidebox li ol:first-child, #content h2:first-child In a typical 2 columns layout, in content area, there are a number of h2 in different sections and there is no first-child declared but h2, but I can never get h2:first-child works yet #hdr li:first-child and .sidebox li:first-child work. This is still a bit confusing, is that means #hdr li:first-child (which is not wrapped inside #content) considers the first child of some other element for the entire page? If yes, why is that the ".sidebox li ol:first-child" and ".sidebox li:first-child" still work? tee ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: memberh...@webstandardsgroup.org *******************************************************************
