CSS Attribute Selectors

« Previous Next Chapter »

Style HTML Elements With Specific Attributes

It is possible to style HTML elements that have specific attributes, not just class and id.

Note: Internet Explorer 7 (and higher) supports attribute selectors only if a !DOCTYPE is specified. Attribute selection is NOT supported in IE6 and lower.


Attribute Selector

The example below styles all elements with a title attribute:

Example

[title]
{
color:blue;
}

Attribute and Value Selector

The example below styles all elements with title="W3Schools":

Example

[title=W3Schools]
{
border:5px solid green;
}

Try it yourself »


Attribute and Value Selector - Multiple Values

The example below styles all elements with a title attribute that contains a specified value. This works even if the attribute has space separated values:

Example

[title~=hello] { color:blue; }

Try it yourself »

The example below styles all elements with a lang attribute that contains a specified value. This works even if the attribute has hyphen ( - ) separated values:

Example

[lang|=en] { color:blue; }

Styling Forms

The attribute selectors are particularly useful for styling forms without class or ID:

Example

input[type="text"]
{
width:150px;
display:block;
margin-bottom:10px;
background-color:yellow;
}
input[type="button"]
{
width:120px;
margin-left:35px;
display:block;
}
