How can I select the last element with a specific class, not last child inside of parent?
:last-child
only works when the element in question is the last child of the container, not the last of a specific type of element. For that, you want :last-of-type

As per @BoltClock's comment, this is only checking for the last article
element, not the last element with the class of .comment
.
body {
background: black;
}
.comment {
width: 470px;
border-bottom: 1px dotted #f0f0f0;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.comment:last-of-type {
border-bottom: none;
margin-bottom: 0;
}
<div class="commentList">
<article class="comment " id="com21"></article>
<article class="comment " id="com20"></article>
<article class="comment " id="com19"></article>
<div class="something"> hello </div>
</div>
Apply CSS to last element of specific class
Last element using .class
is not possible. In your case you can use nth-last-child
property.
.blog-posts div:nth-last-child(2) {
background: #ff0000;
}

How can I select all children of an element except the last child?
You can use the negation pseudo-class :not()
against the :last-child
pseudo-class. Being introduced CSS Selectors Level 3, it doesn't work in IE8 or below:
:not(:last-child) { /* styles */ }
I need to select (not last child) only if it has a specific class
Instead of applying padding-right
to everything except the last one, you can apply padding-left
to everything except the first one. This will make your code much more intuitive and simple to read.
Check this out:
a[class^=action--] + a {
padding-left: 5px;
}
a[class^=action--] + a { padding-left: 5px; }
<table> <tr> <td><img src="http://via.placeholder.com/350x150" height="40" width="40" /></td> <td>Triple monochromator for Raman</td> <td> <a href="i"><img src="http://via.placeholder.com/24x24"/></a> </td> <td> <a class="action--edit"><i class="icon-building"><img src="http://via.placeholder.com/16x16"/></i></a> <a class="action--delete"><i class="icon-building"><img src="http://via.placeholder.com/16x16"/></i></a> <a class="action--view"><i class="icon-building"><img src="http://via.placeholder.com/16x16"/></i></a> </td> </tr></table>
How can I get the last matched element with a CSS selector that has different parents?
This is not a great solution but it does what you want in this specific example
*:last-of-type > .something:last-of-type {
background-color: black;
}
<div>
<span class="something">...</span>
<span class="something">...</span>
<span class="something">...</span>
</div>
<article>
<span class="something">...</span>
</article>
CSS selector for other than the first child and last child
Try:
#navigation ul li:not(:first-child):not(:last-child) {
...
}
CSS selector with nth-child works but not last-child
use .child-div:nth-last-child(1) { }
The :nth-last-child(n)
selector matches every element that is the nth child, regardless of type, of its parent, counting from the last child.
