Can CSS Match Elements with Class Names Starting with a Specific String

Question:

In CSS, is there a way to use a "wildcard" to select elements with class names that start with a particular string?

Answer:

Yes, it is possible to match all elements whose class names begin with a specific string using the following CSS selectors:

• [class^='string']: Matches elements whose class attribute starts with 'string'.
• [class*=' string']: Matches elements whose class attribute contains 'string' anywhere.

Example:

To select and style all

div[class^='myclass'"], div[class*=' myclass'] {
    color: #f00;
}

<div class="myclass-one"></div>
<div class="myclass-two"></div>
<div class="myclass-three"></div>
