Is there an alternative for targeting elements using nth-child() for older IE browsers? Javascript (non-jquery) would suffice as well. EDIT: Given additional libraries cannot be added to the page. You can use jQuery's :nth-child() selector; $("li:nth-child(even)") // target even li's $("li:nth-child(odd)") // target odd li's $("li:nth-child(5n)") // target the fifth li it sucks a little, but you can ul > li {} /* first-child, overwritten by below */ ul > li + li {} /* second-child, overwritten by below, etc */ ul > li + li + li {} ul > li + li + li + li {} Repeat as necessary. There is

I'm trying to create a GroupBox design like this. I have looked at the GroupBox.HeaderTemplate but I'm having problems creating the blue background color, with a width of 100%. The same goes for the border. My code so far <GroupBox.HeaderTemplate> <DataTemplate> <Grid> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition Width="*"/> </Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <Label Content="{Binding}" HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Background="#25A0DA" Grid.Column="0" Height="20" Padding="5,0,0,0" Margin="1" Foreground="White"/> </Grid> </DataTemplate> </GroupBox.HeaderTemplate> And this is what it looks like right now.

simple question: How can I set a padding on a dataGridCell in WPF? (either one at a time or on all cells, I don't care) I have tried using the DataGrid.CellStyle property by adding a setter on the DataGridCell.Padding property as well as using the DataGridColumn.CellStyle property in the same way with no effect. I also tried using the DataGridColumn.ElementStyle property with no more luck. I'm kind of stuck there, has anyone managed to get a padding applied on a dataGridCell? NB: I'll add that no, I cannot use transparent borders to do this, since I already use the border properties for

On many websites, when typing in a username for example, a dropdown occurs where previous input shows up so the user can easily select something instead of typing. I know you can turn this off in browsers by having the form or input have an attribute of autocomplete="off" . The problem is when I want it on, and the input has padding. The dropdown looks horribly off because it has no padding for each item. Is there any way to style this with only css? I'm aware that you could potentially use a javascript/jQuery workaround to store previous entries in a cookie or something and make your own

I'm new to Qt C++. I downloaded the latest windows version, did some tutorials and its great. I saw some styling options that the Qt framework has and its great, but now I need to build my application that its main windows (form) it designed/skinned with image without the rectangle borders (borderless?). How can I do it with Qt?

I've been working in WPF for quite a while, but there's something basic about styling that I just don't get. How can I set the foreground and background colors for a Menu control? I started with this: <Menu IsMainMenu="True" Background="#FF3A3A3A" Foreground="White"> <MenuItem Header="_File"> <MenuItem Header="_Exit"> </MenuItem> </MenuItem> </Menu> The foreground color is apparently inherited by the MenuItem , but the background is not. Next attempt: <Menu IsMainMenu="True" Background="#FF3A3A3A" Foreground="White"> <MenuItem Background="#FF3A3A3A" Header="_File"> <MenuItem Header="_Exit"> <
