For a descendant selector with asterisk.... say el1 * el2
the rule should apply only when el2 is grandchild or
further removed. it should not apply to a child element
Unfortunately this is not true for Amaya 9.99 on WinXP

<style type="text/css">
span {color:red}
div * span {color:blue}
</style>
</head><body><h1>Descendants:VE3LL@RAC.CA</h1>
<p>el1 * el2 descendant selectors should not work if the el2
element is a child element. Only grandchildren and further down
the chain should react to rule. However Amaya 9.99 allows
child element to get the style.</p>
<div><span>Hello!</span></div>
</body></html>
