title: Complex CSS selector for parent of active child
body: <p>Is there a way to select a parent element based on the class of a child element in the class?  The example that is relevant to me relating to HTML output by a nice menu plugin for <a href="http://drupal.org" rel="noreferrer">http://drupal.org</a>.  The output renders like this:  </p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;ul class="menu"&gt;  
      &lt;li&gt;  
          &lt;a class="active"&gt;Active Page&lt;/a&gt;  
      &lt;/li&gt;  
      &lt;li&gt;    
          &lt;a&gt;Some Other Page&lt;/a&gt;  
      &lt;/li&gt;  
  &lt;/ul&gt;  
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>My question is whether or not it is possible to apply a style to the list item that contains the anchor with the active class on it.  Obviously, I'd prefer that the list item be marked as active, but I don't have control of the code that gets produced.  I could perform this sort of thing using javascript (JQuery springs to mind), but I was wondering if there is a way to do this using CSS selectors.</p>
  
  <p>Just to be clear, I want to apply a style to the list item, not the anchor.</p>
