								## 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;
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								}
							 | 
						||
| 
								 | 
							
								```
