CSS: How to target all elements within a given ID

Question

Instead of doing the following to give a text color to all elements on the page:

* {color: red;}

Is there a way to only apply it to all elements within a certain id? Something like this:

#container * {color: red;}

Answer 1

#container * {color: red;}

Should work.

If you only want direct children to get the class, try

#container>*{color: red;}

What browser are you using? (brand + version)

Answer 2

Actually yes, exactly like you mentioned.

#container * { color: red; }
