It would be nice to add an asterisk to the 'first defined' column in the selectors table so as to mark whether a selector has changed since CSS2, and if so to link to a description. Also a typo, 'A pseudo-class always contains a colon (:) followed by the name of the pseudo-class and optionnaly by a value between parentheses.' ---------- But strictly speaking, it isn't always followed by the name of pseudo-class, at least insofar as :lang is called the language pseudo. And I think 'Rules containing a :target pseudo-class have no effect in environments where the notion of a target element is meaningless.' would be clearer as 'The :target pseudo-class is never matched in environments where the notion of a target element is meaningless.' ---- Also IMHO, :lang isn't clear enough; a note to this effect should be added: 'The difference between [lang|=en] and :lang(en) is that the former is strictly on attribute value, whereas the latter works on the element's language. E.g., in the example below, the DIV is matched by both selectors, but the P is only matched by :lang, which according to HTML's language rules inherits its language from ancestor elements. <html> <title>Document</title> <body> <div lang=en> Content <p> Content </div>'
