This slide deck looks at how to style the :link
and :visited
pseudo-class selectors.
The user-action pseudo-classes, :focus
, :hover
and :active
, allow you to style elements based on the way that users interact with these elements.
The :lang(c)
selector targets any element that contains the lang
attribute and the relevant language subtag value.
The negation pseudo-class selector allows authors to target every element that doesn’t match the defined selector.
Structural pseudo-classes allow you to select elements based on their position within the overall document structure.
User interface pseudo-classes allow you to style various aspects of form-related elements.
Pseudo-elements allow us to style "fake" elements, elements that do not exist in the document tree, such as ::first line
, ::first letter
, ::before
and ::after
.
Attribute selectors are used to select elements based on their attributes or their attribute and values.
CSS inheritance is where CSS properties are passed down from parent elements to descendant elements.
Browsers often have to deal with situations where more than one declaration refers to the same element and property. But which declaration wins? The winner is determined by the rules of the cascade.
The CSS box model describes the rectangular boxes that are created for every element in the document tree.
The position
property specifies how HTML element are positioned. The possible values are: static
, relative
, absolute
, fixed
, and sticky
.
The top
, right
, bottom
, and left
properties allow authors to define the location of positioned elements.

The color
property sets the foreground color value of an element’s text content. It also sets the color of the text decoration unless the <'text-decoration-color'>
is specifically defined by the user.
The CSS3 box-shadow
property allows you to apply one or more shadows to any box - including outer and inner box shadows.
CSS line-height
is one of the fundamentals of CSS. It can be used to make content easier to read and comprehend, control the vertical rhythm of layouts and can even be used to center content vertically.
