:not()

La pseudo-class CSS :not() representa elements que no coincideixen amb una llista de selectors. Atès que impedeix que es seleccionin elements específics, es coneix com a pseudo-class de negació.

/* Selecciona qualsevol element que NO sigui un paràgraf */
:not(p) {
  color: blue;
}

La pseudo-class :not() requereix una llista separada per comes d'un o més selectors com a argument. La llista no ha de contenir un altre selector de negació o un pseudo-element.
