Step 55 instructions: Using the same selector syntax, target the 'thelements within your table rows where theclassistotal`
My question is why is the selector tr[class=“total”] th instead of
tr th[class=“total”] ?
I don’t understand by the th element is placed at the end and not after tr since it’s a descendant of tr?
Welcome, @yutienlai . Great Question.
It is because the class=“total” belongs to the tr, it is not the class of th.
Example:
But, if, for example, you were trying to select the td’s class of current, then it could be tr td[class=“current”].
Hope this helped
hello and welcome to fcc forum 
cause it would mean class “total” belongs to “th” and not “tr”, thats exactly what “teiresa” pointed it out
happy learning
