Is there any way to select only innermost tables? That is ones that do not contain any more tables inside them?
I know I can filter by element.getElementsByTagName("table").length == 0, I’m just wondering if there’s a more elegant solution.
With pure CSS you can’t do this. With jQuery (which your question is tagged with) you can:
will select tables with no child tables.
The
:has()selector finds elements elements that have a particular descendant.:not()inverts the selection to those that don’t have that particular descendant.
