Css pseudo classes input:not(disabled)not:[type="submit"]:focus

People also ask

What is the correct selector for targeting all text inputs that are not disabled CSS?

The :enabled pseudo-class in CSS selects focusable elements that are not disabled, and therefore enabled.

How do I make input disabled in CSS?

you can disable via css: pointer-events: none; Doesn't work everywhere though. Text input can still be tabbed into.

What does pseudo-class focus do?

The :focus CSS pseudo-class represents an element (such as a form input) that has received focus. It is generally triggered when the user clicks or taps on an element or selects it with the keyboard's Tab key.

What pseudo-class would be used to target disabled inputs?

The :disabled CSS pseudo-class represents any disabled element. An element is disabled if it can't be activated (selected, clicked on, typed into, etc.) or accept focus. The element also has an enabled state, in which it can be activated or accept focus.


Instead of:

input:not(disabled)not:[type="submit"]:focus {}

Use:

input:not([disabled]):not([type="submit"]):focus {}

disabled is an attribute so it needs the brackets, and you seem to have mixed up/missing colons and parentheses on the :not() selector.

One thing to note: I may be wrong, but I don't think disabled inputs can normally receive focus, so that part may be redundant.

Alternatively, use :enabled

input:enabled:not([type="submit"]):focus { /* styles here */ }

Again, I can't think of a case where disabled input can receive focus, so it seems unnecessary.


Your syntax is pretty screwy.

Change this:

input:not(disabled)not:[type="submit"]:focus{

to:

input:not(:disabled):not([type="submit"]):focus{

Seems that many people don't realize :enabled and :disabled are valid CSS selectors...


You have a few typos in your select. It should be: input:not([disabled]):not([type="submit"]):focus

See this jsFiddle for a proof of concept. On a sidenote, if I removed the "background-color" property, then the box shadow no longer works. Not sure why.
