Short answer:
[data-foo]:not([data-foo=""] {
Longer answer (same conclusion, just an explanation on why we might need this):
Say you have an element that you style with a special data-attribute
:
<div data-highlight="product"</div
You want to target that element and do special things when highlighting.
[data-highlight] {
font-size: 125%;
}
[data-highlight="product"] img {

</div>

}
That data-type
attribute is part of a template, so it can have any value you set.
<div data-highlight="{{ value }}">
</div>
And sometimes there is no value! So the output HTML is:
<div data-highlight="">
</div>
But this can be tricky. See in that first CSS block above, we're wanting to target all elements with the data-highlight
attribute, buttttt, we actually only wanna do it if it has a value. If the value is blank, we want to just skip any special styling at all.
In a perfect world, we'd just remove the data-attribute from the HTML template when there is no value. But a lot of templating languages, on purpose, don't allow logic in them that would help us put-or-not-put that attribute entirely.
Instead, we can solve it with CSS:
[data-highlight]:not([data-highlight=""] {
font-size: 125%;
}
[data-highlight="product"] img {
order: 1;
}
