There are numerous nested divs within my code:
<div>
<div>
<div>Apple</div>
<div>
<div>Banana</div>
<div>Grape</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>Craisin</div>
</div>
To style them, I use a simple pink color rule:
div { color: pink; }
If I want to remove this color rule for specific divs and all their children, I can add the special
class. For instance, adding it to this div,
<div>
<div class="special">
<div>Apple</div>
<div>
<div>Banana</div>
<div>Grape</div>
</div>
</div>
<div>Craisin</div>
</div>
will make "Apple," "Banana," and "Grape" lose their pink color.
Is there a way to modify the rule to only target divs that are not inside a .special
div?
I am not interested in creating a rule for .special
that cancels out all styles on div
. Using such as solution like this one:
.special, .special div { color: black !important; }
is not ideal, especially when dealing with complex styles beyond just changing colors.
