Element Search Tool
The Search tool allows you to select the elements by using the element classes, ids, and HTML tags. If you already have a selector, you can use this tool to select the target elements, or you can generate special CSS selectors.
CSS Selector Syntax
in the CSS selectors, you must use a dot before type the class name, and you must use a hashtag before type the element id.
| Selector | Example | Example description |
|---|---|---|
| .class | .intro | Selects all elements with class=”intro” |
| #id | #firstname | Selects the element with id=”firstname” |
| element | p | Selects all <p> elements |
| element,element | div, p | Selects all <div> elements and all <p> elements |
