Style every thing except first child

Question

I know of the selector :not() but it doesn't work, like tr:not(tr:first-child):hover. I want to style the other trs but not the first one, because it holds the headings. How can I do this without using an id or class?

Answer 1

You can only use simple selectors in :not(), try

tr:not(:first-child)
