Dumba$$ CSS question

[charlie_82]

I highly doubt this is possible but I thought I'd try my luck...

I have a form and I want all the * that I'm using to mark required fields to be a specific colour...

Is it possible to specify this in CSS without having to use spans etc in my HTML?
There's gonna be quite a few * and hate repeating code...

<div> ?

That's cheating

I would wrap all the required fields in a class, forget about the *, then put whatever indication of the field's requiredness in css.

For example:

<label for="name">Your Name</label>
<input id="name" name="name" type="text" [COLOR="Red"]class="required"[/COLOR] />

Then, in your css:

input.required {
border: 1px solid red;
etc
}

You could put a background image or whatever you wanted in the div and would have more control over the styling.

2c, use it / don't use it.
