# CSS Has Pseudo [<img src="http://jonathantneal.github.io/js-logo.svg" alt="" width="90" height="90" align="right">][CSS Has Pseudo] [![NPM Version][npm-img]][npm-url] [<img alt="Discord" src="https://shields.io/badge/Discord-5865F2?logo=discord&logoColor=white">][discord] [CSS Has Pseudo] lets you style elements relative to other elements in CSS, following the [Selectors Level 4] specification. [](https://caniuse.com/#feat=css-has) ```css a:has(> img) { /* style links that contain an image */ } h1:has(+ p) { /* style level 1 headings that are followed by a paragraph */ } section:not(:has(h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6)) { /* style sections that don’t contain any heading elements */ } body:has(:focus) { /* style the body if it contains a focused element */ } ``` ## Usage From the command line, transform CSS files that use `:has` selectors: ```bash npx css-has-pseudo SOURCE.css --output TRANSFORMED.css ``` Next, use your transformed CSS with this script: ```html <link rel="stylesheet" href="TRANSFORMED.css"> <script src="https://unpkg.com/css-has-pseudo/dist/browser-global.js"></script> <script>cssHasPseudo(document)</script> ``` ⚠️ Please use a versioned url, like this : `https://unpkg.com/css-has-pseudo@3.0.0/dist/browser-global.js` Without the version, you might unexpectedly get a new major version of the library with breaking changes. ⚠️ If you were using an older version via a CDN, please update the entire url. The old URL will no longer work in a future release. That’s it. The script is 765 bytes and works in most browser versions, including Internet Explorer 11. With a [Mutation Observer polyfill], the script will work down to Internet Explorer 9. See [README BROWSER](README-BROWSER.md) for more information. ## How it works The [PostCSS plugin](README-POSTCSS.md) clones rules containing `:has`, replacing them with an alternative `[:has]` selector. ```css body:has(:focus) { background-color: yellow; } section:not(:has(h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6)) { background-color: gray; } /* becomes */ body[\:has\(\:focus\)] { background-color: yellow; } body:has(:focus) { background-color: yellow; } section[\:not-has\(h1\,\%20h2\,\%20h3\,\%20h4\,\%20h5\,\%20h6\)] { background-color: gray; } section:not(:has(h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6)) { background-color: gray; } ``` Next, the [JavaScript library](README-BROWSER.md) adds a `[:has]` attribute to elements otherwise matching `:has` natively. ```html <body :has(:focus)> <input value="This element is focused"> </body> ``` [discord]: https://discord.gg/bUadyRwkJS [npm-img]: https://img.shields.io/npm/v/css-has-pseudo.svg [npm-url]: https://www.npmjs.com/package/css-has-pseudo [CSS Has Pseudo]: https://github.com/csstools/postcss-plugins/tree/main/plugins/css-has-pseudo [Mutation Observer polyfill]: https://github.com/webmodules/mutation-observer [Selectors Level 4]: https://drafts.csswg.org/selectors-4/#has-pseudo
