CSS Text Pseudo-elements

🎯 한 줄 통찰 (One-line insight)

The text pseudo-elements ::first-line and ::first-letter style just the opening line or opening letter of block-level text, and can be combined with classes and with each other. [S1]

🧠 핵심 개념 (Core concepts)

  • ::first-line — styles the first line of text; can only be applied to block-level elements. [S1]
  • ::first-letter — styles the first letter of text; can only be applied to block-level elements. [S1]
  • Works with classes — pseudo-elements can be combined with HTML classes (e.g. p.intro::first-letter). [S1]
  • Combinable::first-line and ::first-letter can both be applied to the same element. [S1]

🧩 추출된 패턴 (Extracted patterns)

  • Drop-cap pattern::first-letter with an enlarged font size produces a drop-cap-style opening letter. [S1]
  • Class-scoped pseudo-elementselector.class::first-letter limits the effect to a specific subset of elements. [S1]
  • Stacking pseudo-elements — applying both ::first-letter and ::first-line to one selector layers two styles on the same paragraph. [S1]

📖 세부 내용 (Details)

The ::first-line pseudo-element [S1] The ::first-line pseudo-element is used to style the first line of text. It can only be applied to block-level elements.

p::first-line {
  color: red;
  font-variant: small-caps;
  font-size: 19px;
}

The ::first-letter pseudo-element [S1] The ::first-letter pseudo-element is used to style the first letter of text. Like ::first-line, it can only be applied to block-level elements.

p::first-letter {
  color: red;
  font-size: xx-large;
}

Combining with a class [S1] Pseudo-elements can be combined with HTML classes:

p.intro::first-letter {
  color: #ff0000;
  font-size: 200%;
}

Multiple pseudo-elements on one selector [S1] Several pseudo-elements can be combined:

p::first-letter {
  color: red;
  font-size: xx-large;
}

p::first-line {
  color: blue;
  font-variant: small-caps;
}
