| You can also apply formatting to those elements that have a given attribute or attribute value. Figure 9.35. In this code, only the two inner div elements have class attributes. To select elements to format based on their attributes: 1. | If desired, type element, where element is the selector for the element whose attributes are in question. | 2. | Type [attribute, where attribute is the name of the attribute that an element must have to be selected. | 3. | If desired, type ="value" if you want to specify the value that the attribute must have for its element to be selected. Or, if desired, type ~="value", to specify a value that the attribute can contain (along with other content) for its element to be selected. Or, if desired, type | (the pipe symbol) ="value" to specify that the attribute's value begin with value- (that is, what you typed followed by a hyphen) in order for its element to be selected. (This is most common when searching for elements in a particular language.) | 4. | Type ] (Figure 9.36). Figure 9.36. The square brackets enclose the desired attribute and any desired value. |
