descendent selector in css

css by Wide-eyed Weevil on Jun 05 2020 Donate

The descendant combinator — typically represented by a single space ( ) 
character — combines two selectors such that elements matched by the second
selector are selected if they have an ancestor 
(parent, parent's parent, parent's parent's parent, etc) 
element matching the first selector. 

example: 
  h1 ul {
    border : 1px solid #f1f1f1;
}
Explanation: This above CSS code snippet will select all the 'ul' (unordered list)
			 tags which are preceeded by an 'h1' (header tag).
/*the best way to understand is to practice by implemetation.
Create a html file with lots of h1 and ul elements to understand by
implementing CSS on them*/

what is a css selector

css by Jealous Jellyfish on May 04 2020 Donate

h1 {
  color: red;
}

In this CSS code example that sets the color of all h1s to red 
the "h1" is the selctor because we are applying this style to 
the h1s.
