如何忽略HTML和CSS中的2条换行符？

Question

I'm debugging an existing Java/JSP/Struts application, somehow it generates 2 break lines and left a large space in the page :

<Br></Br>
<Br></Br>

So I searched around and found I can use the following in CSS to ignore break lines :

br { display: none; }

See my previous question : Where did extra space come from in html of Struts app?

But this will cause all break lines to be ignored in the app, and not the ideal solution I'm looking for, I think the br's were generated by Struts and hard to control, so I wonder if there is a way in CSS to define 2 breaks as nothing [to be ignored], maybe something like this ?

brbr { display: none; }
br.br { display: none; }

I tried it, didn't work, must be in wrong format, any CSS experts here can answer my question ?

Answer 1

Use + in your selector:

br + br { display: none; }

---

From W3 Documentation

E + F : Matches any F element immediately preceded by a sibling element E.

Answer 2

Simple:

br + br {display:none;}

This selects a br that directly follows another br using the + selector.

Ref: Section 5.1 Pattern matching and 5.7 Adjacent sibling selectors

Answer 3

br supports class why not give then a class

<br class="hey" />

CSS

.hey{
display:none;
}
