Just what is <<pseudo:before>></<pseudo:before>> and is it useful to me?
info: That's the The outerHTML attribute
of the ::before pseudo-element
in DOM.
As that element
does not have any "real" content in it (it has could have a CSS content:''
property)...
...you only get the outerHTML
when you copy (& paste)
I don't think and AFAIK, can't be emulate/simulate this pseudo-element
directly in DOM.
Now.. outerHTML
is supported in all mayor browser at these days... and with Javascript
you can can have an approach emu/simulating, but I don't know if that's really your question.
Edit: Screenshot added so you can find the reference of outerHTML
directly in Chrome DevTools.
#question-header h1:before { content: 'Hi there! '; color: red;}
