[css-d] css validation error

[Mike Manley]

I need a little help understanding this error.

All css validates except this part.
"css error = Unknown pseudo-element or pseudo-class :required"


I have this html in a table for a contact form and all html validates.
required="required" />


In the css I have this
input:required, textarea:required{add styles}

From all the information I have been able to find (which is mostly a 
couple of years old) what I have in the css is the correct way of doing 
this.  So either my information is wrong or I have misunderstood it.


TIA
Mike

The validator basically doesn't know that it's valid CSS. It's not updated.
Ignore the error :).

It might be helpful, Ryan, if you could provide a link to the
relevant part of the W3C CSS specification(s); that way, both the
original poster and other members of the list can better inform
themselves about this and other related aspects of CSS.

[css-d] Sidebar height with list filter

[J.C. Berry]

Hello all,
I have an issue with a set of checkbox filters in a sidebar that has to
expand it height based on what the user selects.
Here is a simple layout (the site is on dev):

SB   Div1   Div2   Div 3
SB   Div4   Div5   Div 6
SB   Div7
SB
SB
FOOTER   FOOTER  FOOTER


So the checkbox filters are in the sidebar (SB) and the Divs are added or
removed based on choice of type of Div. I need the SB to expand as needed.
Possible?

Thanks!

Your sidebar should auto-magically grow with the amount of content it contains, 
no? Unless, that is, you set `height` or `max-height`.

I suspect your problem might be that your `footer` doesn’t move (lower) when 
you add content to your sidebar. That will depend on how you coded your whole 
page. Hard to say without at least a minimal testcase.

The :required pseudo-class was once part of CSS3-UI, but has been moved to 
CSS-Selectors 4 (somewhere during the 2014 timespan. 

Older version of CSS3-UI:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2012/WD-css3-ui-20120117/#pseudo-required-value
(Note the date at the top of the document)
Current Selectors 4 draft
https://drafts.csswg.org/selectors/#required-pseudo

As Ryan says, the validator needs some love.

If your sb and main content are floats, you'll need to clear them so your
footer sits below.

thanks guys, but I think I have to clarify my issue. The sidebar content is
always the same; it has the checkbox filters. But the right area divs wrap
down to the left below the sidebar when a lot of them show. The footer
clears fine.

I will have to look at my HTML tomorrow when I get back in the office.

Re: [css-d] Sidebar height with list filter

[John D]

It could be that you want equal height columns so that whichever column 
expands, other column expands simultaneously.  Please confirm if this is 
what you are asking about.

[replies snipped]

If, as you suggest, you have a non-floated main element that wraps below the
float when content is added, there is a simple solution. There is a property
that you can add to the main element, called a "new block-formatting context."
For details, check out this article:
