first-line pseudo-element

The first-line pseudo-element allows you to style the first line of a text.

Syntax

selector::first-line {
	
}

Let's color the first line of a text in each paragraph red:

<p>
	some text...
</p>
<p>
	some text...
</p>

p::first-line {
	color: red;
}
p {
	width: 300px;
	text-align: justify;
}

Let's set the paragraph width as a percentage. Run the given code and change the width of the browser window:

<p>
	some text...
</p>
<p>
	some text...
</p>

p::first-line {
	color: red;

p {
	width: 50%;
	margin: 0 auto;
	text-align: justify;
}
