You could use the [n-th child selector](http://css-tricks.com/how-nth-child-works/).

to target the nth element you could then use:

    td:nth-child(n) {  
      /* your stuff here */
    }

(where `n` starts at 1)

If you&#39;ve to support IE7, a more compatible solution is:

    /* only the cells with no cell before (aka the first one) */
    td {
        padding-left: 20px;
    }
    /* only the cells with at least one cell before (aka all except the first one) */
    td + td {
        padding-left: 0;
    }

Also works fine with `li`; general sibling selector `~` may be more suitable with mixed elements like a heading h1 followed by paragraphs AND a subheading and then again other paragraphs.

The **:nth-child()** and **:nth-of-type()** pseudo-classes allows you to select elements with a formula.

The syntax is **:nth-child(an+b)**, where you replace a and b by numbers of your choice. 

For instance, :nth-child(3n+1) selects the 1st, 4th, 7th etc. child.

    td:nth-child(3n+1) {  
      /* your stuff here */
    }

**:nth-of-type()** works the same, except that it only considers element of the given type (&lt;div&gt; in the example).

This should help. Its CSS3 :first-child where you should say that the first `tr` of the table you would like to style. http://reference.sitepoint.com/css/pseudoclass-firstchild

To select the first column of a table you can use this syntax

    tr td:nth-child(1n + 2){
      padding-left: 10px;
    }

According to the most programming languages scope rules, I can access variables that are defined outside of functions inside them, but why doesn&#39;t this code work?

    &lt;?php
        $data = &#39;My data&#39;;

        function menugen() {
            echo &quot;[&quot; . $data . &quot;]&quot;;
        }

        menugen();
    ?&gt;

The output is `[]`.

Can anyone give me an example that uses `onResume()` in Android?

Also, if I want to restart the activity at the end of the execution of another, which method is executed—`onCreate()` or `onResume()`?

And if I want to update data, how do I put it in `onResume()?`

If I have a `table` with two columns, how do I specify a `padding` or any other css so that it is applied just for the first column of `&lt;td&gt;`s. Also how do I style an ***n-th*** column similarly?

I have been trying for a couple of days now to configure my thumbnail gallery so all the images appear the same height and width. However, when I change the CSS code to,

    max-height: 150px;
    max-width: 200px;
    width: 120px;
    height: 120px;

I get images that are all the same size, but the aspect ratio is stretched, ruining the images. Is there not a way to resize the image container and not the image instead? Allowing me to keep the aspect ratio, but resize the image still. (I don’t mind if I cut off some of the image.)

HTML-Tooltip position relative to mouse pointer

So, I have attempted to create a horizontal list for use on a new website I am designing. I have attempted a number of the suggestions found online already such as setting &#39;float&#39; to left and such - yet none of these have worked when it comes to fixing the problem.

&lt;!-- begin snippet: js hide: false console: true --&gt;

&lt;!-- language: lang-css --&gt;

        ul#menuItems {
          background: none;
          height: 50px;
          width: 100px;
          margin: 0;
          padding: 0;
        }
        ul#menuItems li {
          display: inline;
          list-style: none;
          margin-left: auto;
          margin-right: auto;
          top: 0px;
          height: 50px;
        }
        ul#menuItems li a {
          font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
          text-decoration: none;
          font-weight: bolder;
          color: #000;
          height: 50px;
          width: auto;
          display: block;
          text-align: center;
          line-height: 50px;
        }

&lt;!-- language: lang-html --&gt;

    &lt;ul id=&quot;menuItems&quot;&gt;
      &lt;li&gt;
        &lt;a href=&quot;index.php&quot;&gt;Home&lt;/a&gt;

      &lt;li&gt;
        &lt;a href=&quot;index.php&quot;&gt;DJ Profiles&lt;/a&gt;
      &lt;/li&gt;

Currently I am unsure of what is causing this issue, how would I go about and resolve it?

Horizontal list items

I plan on building a custom photo gallery for a friend and I know exactly how I am going to be producing the HTML, however I am running into a small issue with the CSS.&lt;br&gt;(I would prefer to not have the page styling rely on jQuery if possible)
&lt;hr&gt;
My question regards:&lt;br&gt;
`Data-Attribute` in HTML&lt;br&gt;
`Background-image` in CSS
&lt;hr&gt;
I am using this format for my html thumbnails:&lt;br&gt;
`&lt;div class=&quot;thumb&quot; data-image-src=&quot;images/img.jpg&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;`&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;

and I assume the CSS should look something like this:&lt;br&gt;

    .thumb {
        width:150px;
        height:150px;
        background-position:center center;
        overflow:hidden;
        border:1px solid black;

        background-image: attr(data-image-src);/*This is the question piece*/
    }

&lt;hr&gt;
My goal is to take the `data-image-src` from the `div.thumb` in my HTML file and use it for each `div.thumb`(s) `background-image` source in my CSS file.

Here is a Codepen Pen in order to get a dynamic example of what I am looking for:&lt;br&gt;
http://codepen.io/thestevekelzer/pen/rEDJv

Using HTML data-attribute to set CSS background-image url

I can&#39;t seem to find much information about this.

[Smashing Magazine](http://coding.smashingmagazine.com/2011/03/30/how-to-use-css3-pseudo-classes/) seems to be saying that `html` and `:root` are the same thing but surely there must be a tiny difference?

What&#39;s the difference between CSS3&#39;s :root pseudo class and html?

I&#39;ve written this code, but it does not work. What is my problem?

        }
     }

Sass Nesting for :hover does not work

I have this code:

How can I chain this code instead of writing it separately?

How to select an element&#39;s parent and the parent&#39;s siblings

I&#39;m trying to apply background-color when a user mouse hover the &lt;a&gt; element whose class name is `&quot;reMode_hover&quot;`.

But I do not want to change color if the element **also** has `&quot;reMode_selected&quot;`

Note: I can only use CSS not javascript because I&#39;m working within some sort of limited environment.

To clarify, my goal is to color the first &lt;a&gt; element on hover but not the second &lt;a&gt; element.

**HTML**

    &lt;a href=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;Design&quot; class=&quot;reMode_design  reMode_hover&quot;&gt;
        &lt;span&gt;Design&lt;/span&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;
    
    &lt;a href=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;Design&quot; 
     class=&quot;reMode_design  reMode_hover reMode_selected&quot;&gt;
        &lt;span&gt;Design&lt;/span&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;

I tried below hoping the first definition would work but it is not. What am I doing wrong?

**CSS**

    /* do not apply background-color so leave this empty */
    .reMode_selected .reMode_hover:hover 
    {
    }
    
    .reMode_hover:hover 
    {
       background-color: #f0ac00;
    }

How to exclude particular class name in CSS selector?

I have noticed that buttons and other elements have a default styling and behave in 3 steps: normal view, hover/focus view and mousedown/click view, in CSS I can change the styling of normal view and hover view like this:

    button{
      background:#333;
      color:#FFF;
    }
    
    button:hover{
      background:#000;
      color:#EEE;
    }

but how can I select the mousedown? I want something like this:

    button:mousedown{
      //some styling
    }

What is the mouse down selector in CSS?

There are many great examples on SO to remove the left padding of a UITextView.

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/746670/how-to-lose-margin-padding-in-uitextview

However, I need to remove the right padding too.

I have tried...

    [tv setContentInset: UIEdgeInsetsMake(-4,-8,-8,-X)];//where X is any integer

and just about every other permutation of the last two values to remove the padding and nothing seems to work. Have also tried
 
    [tv sizeToFit];
    [tv setTextAlignment:[NSTextAlignmentRight]];

The following Text in the Textview says &quot;00&quot;

Remove all padding and margin table HTML and CSS

How do you make an absolute positioned element honor the padding of its parent? I want an inner div to stretch across the width of its parent and to be positioned at the bottom of that parent, basically a footer. But the child has to honor the padding of the parent and it&#39;s not doing that. The child is pressed right up against the edge of the parent.

So I want this:

![enter image description here][1]

but I&#39;m getting this:

![enter image description here][2]

    &lt;html&gt;
      &lt;body&gt;
        &lt;div style=&quot;background-color: blue; padding: 10px; position: relative; height: 100px;&quot;&gt;
          &lt;div style=&quot;background-color: gray; position: absolute; left: 0px; right: 0px; bottom: 0px;&quot;&gt;css sux&lt;/div&gt;
        &lt;/div&gt;
      &lt;/body&gt;
    &lt;/html&gt;

I can make it happen with a margin around the inner div, but I&#39;d prefer not to have to add that.

Absolute positioning ignoring padding of parent

How would I do this in HTML/CSS?


How to increase the distance between table columns in HTML?

I have two inline-block `div` elements, that are the same, positioned next to eachother. However there seems to be a mysterious space of 4 pixels between the two divs despite the margin being set to 0. There are no parent divs effecting them - What is going on?

CSS

    #container
    {
	    display:inline-block;
	    position:relative;
	    background:rgb(255,100,0);
	    margin:0px;
