Sorry, my first mail had an syntax error and was not clear enough, ill try again.
here is an example of :target http://osku.de/post/css-target-source-example1.html there we have a single css definition: :target { background: green; } so when we click a link (with eg. href="#foo") in the unordered list, you can see the "active" target (with eg. id="foo") change and leave their background to green. and all this with one css rule, pretty cool! now, i'm trying to findout if there is a css pseudo-class that would be the source of :target. lets pretend the pseudo-class im looking for is called :source and i would have css like this: :source { background: red; } here is an example what it would do ("polyfilled" with javascript but apparently we cant just create our own pseudo-classes, so this example uses .source instead of :source): http://osku.de/post/css-target-source-example2.html so when you click a link (with eg. href="#foo") in the unordered list, you can see the "active" source (with eg. href="#foo") change and leave their background to red. I hope its more clear now, and still wonder if: - Is there really no such pseudo-class? - Would this be technically impossible? - Has this been proposed before? - Any tips for proposing one? ;P Cheers Andre Schmidt ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
