How to find a CSS selector?

A CSS selector serves as a valuable tool for precisely locating elements within a web page. To discover the appropriate CSS selector, you can leverage your web browser’s inspection tools. We have demonstrated the process of identifying CSS selectors on BrowserStack Sign in page.

To find a CSS selector, follow these steps.

  1. Navigate to the webpage that houses the elements you need to target.
  2. Right-click, and select ‘Inspect’ on the desired element.
    Find CSS selector: Right click to Inspect
  3. This action will promptly open the browser’s developer tools, highlighting the relevant element automatically.
    Find CSS selector: Elements tab on Developer Tools
  4. To obtain the CSS selector, right-click on the highlighted element in the ‘Elements’ tab and choose ‘Copy’ > ‘Selector’.
    Find CSS selector: Copy selector
  5. The selector is now stored in your clipboard, ready for immediate use.
