Can CSS target labels that end with an asterisk and colon combination? Is this achievable?
Let me elaborate further as per your request:
Apologies if my explanation was not clear. I am working with an HTML label element that may end with an asterisk and colon, like this: "This field is mandatory*:". My goal is to style these particular labels in red.
At this time, it is not feasible to target an element based on its content using only CSS.
One way to achieve a similar effect is by styling labels that are associated with required input fields (those that have an asterisk at the end). If you can modify the markup, you could add a class like .required to the labels. Alternatively, if you are using HTML5 and the required attribute, you can style them as follows:
HTML:
<input type="text" id="firstname" ... required>
<label for="firstname">First name <sup>*</sup></label>
CSS:
[required] + label { color: red; }
label[for$="*:"]
To target the name specifically, the code snippet above would do the trick!
There are various types of selectors available to suit your specific requirements, such as the "attributeEndsWith" selector.
For more information on this, refer to the following documentation:
UPDATE:
HTML Code:
<label class="required" for="nameInput">This is the required name:</label>
<input name="nameInput" type="text"/>
CSS Code:
label.required{
font-color:red;
}
