Is there a CSS selector for text nodes?

Question

What I would like to do (not in IE obviously) is:

p:not(.list):last-child + :text {
  margin-bottom: 10px;
}

Which would give a text node a margin. (Is that even possible?) How would I get the text node with CSS?

Answer 1

Text nodes cannot have margins or any other style applied to them, so anything you need style applied to must be in an element. If you want some of the text inside of your element to be styled differently, wrap it in a span or div, for example.
