CSS - Guidelines for Targeting Multiple Elements

My CSS code includes several commands that target similar elements, but the resulting design appears messy. I am seeking advice on a more effective way to select these elements in a conventional manner. Despite consulting documentation, I have resorted to reaching out to the community for help once again.

Code:

.customRadioNPS .generic_radio_1, .customRadioNPS .generic_radio_2{
  background:#33CC66;
  height: 40px;
  width: 40px;
}
.customRadioNPS .generic_radio_3, .customRadioNPS .generic_radio_4, .customRadioNPS .generic_radio_5, .customRadioNPS .generic_radio_6, .customRadioNPS .generic_radio_7, .customRadioNPS .generic_radio_8{
  background:#FFFF99;
  height: 40px;
  width: 40px;
}
.customRadioNPS .generic_radio_9, .customRadioNPS .generic_radio_10{
  background:#FF3333;
  height: 40px; 
  width: 40px;
}
.customRadioNPS .generic_roption_1, .customRadioNPS .generic_roption_2{
  background:#33CC66;
}
.customRadioNPS .generic_roption_3, .customRadioNPS .generic_roption_4, customRadioNPS .generic_roption_6, .customRadioNPS .generic_roption_7, .customRadioNPS .generic_roption_8{
  background:#FFFF99;
}
.customRadioNPS .generic_roption_9, .customRadioNPS .generic_roption_10{
  background:#FF3333;
}
.customRadioNPS .generic_roption_5{
  border-right: 2px dashed gray;
  background:#FFFF99;
}

All the styles are contained within the customRadioNPS class, but I am unsure if there is a more efficient approach that could eliminate the need to repeatedly reference .customRadioNPS?

Answer №1

When it comes to CSS selectors, simplification isn't always possible. However, depending on the structure of your markup (which you haven't provided details about), there may be a way to reference the same elements using more straightforward selectors.

For instance, if classes like generic_radio_1 are exclusively used for the specific elements you want to target, then there's no need to include the selector .customRadioNPS before class selectors like .generic_radio_1, unless there are other rules that apply to those elements and require higher specificity to override them.
