I know how to do this using javascript and php, but I am trying to learn how/if it is possible to do this using just css.
I have a container which holds many items. Each item has a picture, and below it, a div containing a description. I want the background of the description to be different for every other item.
Is it possible to achieve this using just css? If so, how? I have been fooling around with using the selectors
.item:nth-child(odd){background-color:red}
.item .description:nth-of-type(odd){background-color:orange;}
I can't seem to get it. Suggestions, comments, anything is appreciated.
Below is some simplified sample code that demonstrates what I have going on.
<style>
#container{width:100% height:100%;}
.item {float:left; width:250px; height:700px;}
.item img {width:250px; height:250px; float:left;}
.description {width:250px; height:450px; float:left; background-color:blue;}
.description:nth-of-type(even){background-color:red;} // <- Here's the line!!
</style>
<html>
<body>
<div id="container">
<div class="item"> //item 1
<img src="image.jpg"/>
<div class="description"> //This (and every odd number) I want to be blue
<h1>Title</h1>
<h2>Sub Title</h2>
<p>Lorem Ipsum dolor sit for Adun!</p>
<a href="#">::LEARN MORE::</a>
</div>
</div>
<div class="item"> //item 2 and so on...
<img src="image.jpg"/>
<div class="description"> //and this (and every even number, red)
<h1>Title</h1>
<h2>Sub Title</h2>
<p>Lorem Ipsum dolor sit for Adun!</p>
<a href="#">::LEARN MORE::</a>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<body>
</html>
