So I have something like
<div class="parent"><input class="child"/></div>
Is there any way, with just CSS to set a parent property based on the child state?
Basically I want to do:
.child:focus < .parent { border: 1px solid black; }
But it looks like CSS will only do descendant inheritance?

Can't do it with CSS. Use jQuery. 6/30/2011 7:41:35 PM |

Fuck. Thanks Ernie 
I know it's a simple event binding in jQuery, but man I was hoping to avoid that. If it's CSS I can avoid a whole lot of sign-offs and code reviews  6/30/2011 7:42:53 PM |

That is, like, the exact opposite of cascading inheritance, son. 6/30/2011 8:58:12 PM |
