I am trying to make a comment process in HTML, CSS, js, and PHP.
I have an element named .view_replies in the nested class.
If I make a sibling of its parent element and want to target it(i.e.sibling) I use the has pseudo selector but it does not work.
Can anyone tell me where I am wrong?
Following are my HTML codes:
<section class="comment_main_container">
<!-- Total comments -->
<div class="total_comments">
<p>Comments</p>
<p>6</p>
</div>
<!-- Add comment -->
<form action="../partials/comment_handle" method="POST">
<div class="add_comment">
<div class="user_dp"><img src="../img/users_img/black-soil.jpg" alt=""></div>
<div class="comment">

.comment_main_container > .repliesView {
display: none;
}
.comment_main_container .comment_container:has(> .view_replies.active) ~ .repliesView{
display: flex;
}
Following are my JS codes for .active class:
const viewReplies = document.querySelectorAll(".view_replies");
viewReplies.forEach(vwRply => {
vwRply.addEventListener("click", () => {
vwRply.classList.toggle("active");
});
});
All game is that first I make .comment_box.repliesView display:none; I have the target
.comment_main_container .comment_box .comment_card .comment_footer button p.view_replies
and make a function onclick for adding an active class then again target to .comment_box.repliesView and make it display:flex;
For this, I have written the CSS:
.comment_main_container > .repliesView {
display: none;
}
And JS for this is as follows:
const viewReplies = document.querySelectorAll(".view_replies");
viewReplies.forEach(vwRply => {
vwRply.addEventListener("click", () => {
vwRply.classList.toggle("active");
});
});
