The adjacent sibling combinator (+) separates two selectors and matches the second element only if it immediately follows the first element, and both are children of the same parent element.
/* Paragraphs that come immediately after any image */ img + p { font-weight: bold; }
former_element + target_element { style properties }
li:first-of-type + li { color: red; }
<ul> <li>One</li> <li>Two!</li> <li>Three</li> </ul>

["Before Internet Explorer 10, the combinator only works in standards mode.", "Internet Explorer 7 doesn't update the style correctly when an element is dynamically placed before an element that matched the selector.", "In Internet Explorer 8, if an element is inserted dynamically by clicking on a link the first-child style isn't applied until the link loses focus."]
