A CSS selector to get last visible div

Question

A tricky CSS selector question, don't know if it's even possible.

Lets say this is the HTML layout:

<div></div>
<div></div>  
<div></div>  
<div style="display:none"></div>
<div style="display:none"></div>  

I want to select the last div, which is displayed (ie. not display:none) which would be the third div in the given example. Mind you, the number of divs on the real page can differ (even the display:none ones).

Answer 1

You could select and style this with JavaScript or jQuery, but CSS alone can't do this.

For example, if you have jQuery implemented on the site, you could just do:

var last_visible_element = $('div:visible:last');

Although hopefully you'll have a class/ID wrapped around the divs you're selecting, in which case your code would look like:

var last_visible_element = $('#some-wrapper div:visible:last');
