In a css selector if we need to traverse from parent to child we use > symbol. To get all the immediate children we have to specify * symbol after parent node in the css expression. So the customized css should be parent > *.
The element>element selector is used to select elements with a specific parent. Note: Elements that are not directly a child of the specified parent, are not selected.
You will begin by using the type selector to select HTML elements to style. Then, you will combine selectors to identify and apply styles more precisely. Lastly, you will group several selectors to apply the same styles to different elements.
Cascading Stylesheets only go (cascade) down, so they're not designed to do this at all...even in those rare cases it would be very handy if they did.
You need either JavaScript, in-line style or a different layout to get the stying you're after...but pure CSS affecting the parent isn't an option here unfortunately.
