How to style a section

I’m trying to style a section, and by section I mean a heading and all it’s children.

Sadly, that’s not considered a section within Obsidian. That is, it’s not a logical entity within the DOM.

@PracticalPanda

I’ve had a look into the html structure of the notes and see that each element of a page is wrapped in it’s own div element and so there is no sense of hierarchy - so is what I’m wanting to do even possible?

Not as of current, as far as I know.

I also had a look on stackoverflow and saw mention of a sibling css selector - but again this wouldn’t be possible to use in this case due to the page structure

We’re not looking at the siblings of elements, but the siblings of children elements to the containing divs, so you kind of have to traverse down the tree, and then up again to match something down into the next element. CSS can’t do that.

Whenever Obsidian upgrades to Chromium, version 105, we might be able to possibly do this, but not currently, as far as I know. (For more on the Chromium version, see here.
