CSS Base can be used contextually by appyling CSS Base to specific regions of the page.
Contextual Usage
When CSS Base is included in a page it applies rules to all HTML elements via type selectors like this: h1 {margin-bottom:1em;}
. An alternate version, cssbase-context.css
, uses only descendent selectors like this: .yui3-cssbase-context h1 {margin-bottom:1em;}
. This means you can put that class value on a node in your document to choose which region(s) of your page CSS Base will be applied to.
<div class="yui3-cssbase"> <p>Everything within this container will have CSS Base applied.</p> </div>
Note:
Because CSS examples are susceptible to other CSS on the page, this example is only available in a new window at the above link.
