Selectors API Level 2 Draft Published
28 June 2012 | Archive
http://www.w3.org/News/2012#entry-9487
The Web Applications Working Group has published a Working
Draft of "Selectors API Level 2." Selectors, which are widely
used in CSS, are patterns that match against elements in a tree
structure. The Selectors API specification defines methods for
retrieving Element nodes from the DOM by matching against a
group of selectors, and for testing if a given element matches
a particular selector. It is often desirable to perform DOM
operations on a specific set of elements in a document. These
methods simplify the process of acquiring and testing specific
elements, especially compared with the more verbose techniques
defined and used in the past. Learn more about the Rich Web
Client Activity.
