Adjacent Sibling Selector
The adjacent sibling selector is used
to target an element that comes immediately after another element with
the same parent element. The combinator for adjacent sibling
selectors is a plus (+) sign.
For example, if you wanted to give special presentation treatment to the
first paragraph following a first-level heading, the resulting rule
would look like this:
H1 + p {padding-left: 40;}Warning
