8. Different
Types of Selectors
Selectors
are used to specify what XHTML MP elements should a WAP CSS style
rule be applied to. Up to now, we have used only one kind of selector
called the type selector in cascading style sheets. There are other
kinds of selectors available in WCSS and they can be very useful to
you. You can learn some of the more useful ones below.
8.1. Type
Selector
In
all the WAP CSS examples mentioned previously, we used XHTML MP
element names as the selector. Such kind of selector is called the
type selector. It should be noted that element names are
case-sensitive in XHTML MP and they must be in lowercase. This means
type selectors in WCSS cascading style sheets must also be in
lowercase. For example, the following WCSS code is incorrect because
the type selector "H1" is not in lowercase.
H1
{ font-style: italic }
This
is the correct version of the above WCSS code:
h1
{ font-style: italic }
The above style statement specifies that the style rule "font-style: italic" should be applied to all <h1> tags.
