|  | ## Optional
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | The CSS :optional selector changes the style of an input element if the `required` tag is not used.  | ||
|  | The :optional selector can be used on the  input, select and textarea element | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | In the example below, the required field will be blue and the optional field red | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ```css | ||
|  | input { | ||
|  |   background-color: blue; | ||
|  | } | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | input:optional { | ||
|  |   background-color: red; | ||
|  | } | ||
|  | ``` | ||
