Hover element, show hover effect on parent elements siblings child
css, css-selectors, hover, html, parent-child
Solution
I got your point what you are trying to do here, in this case, you can use the selector below.. so that when the `li` is hovered, it will also apply the color to the first `span`
.row:hover span:nth-of-type(1) {
color: red;
}
I just inspected the DOM in your fiddle and I would like to alter some things in that..
Demo (`hover` an of the hello and see the very first `span` color will be changed)
Demo 2 (DOM Altered) - This is just a general idea, I've provided you the selector but this will need the DOM alteration anyways..
Altered Demo in your Code
Again as per your comment, now you can highlight all `span` along with their titles
ul li div.row:hover > span {
color: red;
}

Problem
Let's see now, not sure if I have the logic down 100%. This is what I'm working with (bootply demo here) ``` <ul> <li class="row"> <span class="category col-sm-2 highlight">Architecture</span> <span class="title col-sm-4"><a href="#">Hello world!</a></span> <span class="publication col-sm-2 hidden-xs">Magazine</span> <span class="year col-sm-2 hidden-xs">2007</span> </li> <li class="row"> <span class="category col-sm-2 invisible">Architecture</span> <span class="title col-sm-4"><a href="#">Keep them coming</a></span> <span class="publication col-sm-2 hidden-xs">Magazine</span> <span class="year col-sm-2 hidden-xs">2007</span> </li> <li class="row"> <span class="category col-sm-2 invisible">Architecture</span> <span class="title col-sm-4"><a href="#">The other posts</a></span> <span class="publication col-sm-2 hidden-xs">Magazine</span> <span class="year col-sm-2 hidden-xs">2007</span> </li> <li class="row"> <span class="category col-sm-2">Cities</span> <span class="title col-sm-4"><a href="#">Tezt</a></span> <span class="publication col-sm-2 hidden-xs">Magazine</span> <span class="year col-sm-2 hidden-xs">2007</span> </li> </ul> ``` The idea is that, when hovering the a element in `span.title`, the color of the text in publication and year is changed. I'm also looking for a way to change the color of the first `span.category` of the same kind (i.e. hovering "The other post" should change the color of `span.category` in the first `.row`). Is this achievable with pure CSS?
