Can I have an onclick effect in CSS?

May 6, 2022 by IT Nursery

I have an image element that I want to change on click.

<img id="btnLeft">

This works:

#btnLeft:hover {
    width:70px;
    height:74px;
}

But what I need is:

#btnLeft:onclick {
    width:70px;
    height:74px;
}

But, it doesn’t work, obviously. Is it possible at all to have onclick behavior in CSS (i.e. without using JavaScript)?
