CSS Selectors

Optional

About

The :optional pseudo-class matches input elements that are optional.

Non-required Inputs

Inputs without the required attribute are matched. This also includes checkboxes, radio buttons, select elements and textareas.

Required Inputs

Inputs with the required attribute are not matched.

Buttons

The selector also matches buttons. Buttons don't support the required attribute, so they are always matched.
