Apply CSS rules to a nested class inside a div
I don’t know exactly how to apply CSS to a nested element. Here is my example code, but I’m looking for a manual that explains all the rules:
<div id="content">
<div id="main_text">
<h2 class="title"></h2>
</div>
</div>
How can I apply CSS to only the class title
, nested inside that particular div
?
You use
#main_text .title {
/* Properties */
}
If you just put a space between the selectors, styles will apply to all children (and children of children) of the first. So in this case, any child element of #main_text
with the class name title
. If you use >
instead of a space, it will only select the direct child of the element, and not children of children, e.g.:
#main_text > .title {
/* Properties */
}
Either will work in this case, but the first is more typically used.
Use Css Selector for this, or learn more about Css Selector just go here

#main_text > .title {
/* Style goes here */
}
#main_text .title {
/* Style goes here */
}
