css - Is there a "previous sibling" selector?




The plus sign (+) is for the next sibling.



Is there an equivalent for the previous sibling?


Answer



No, there is no "previous sibling" selector.



On a related note, ~ is for general successor sibling (meaning the element comes after this one, but not necessarily immediately after) and is a CSS3 selector. + is for next sibling and is CSS2.1.



See Adjacent sibling combinator from Selectors Level 3 and 5.7 Adjacent sibling selectors from Cascading Style Sheets Level 2 Revision 1 (CSS 2.1) Specification.
