To whom it may concern: Relating to the Syntax and Grammar module, I suggested that nesting of selectors be allowed, for the purposes of simplifying style sheets and providing a more encapsulated look to the sheet as well. Here is a rather thourough example of my suggestion: div.order-form { background: gray; div.title-bar { background: navy; color: white; padding-left: 10px; height: 20px; } div.body { padding: 10px; color: black; div.line-item { margin-top: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px; } div.line-submit { text-align: center; } } } As a sheet which would describe HTML similar to this: <div class="order-form"> <div class="title-bar">Order Form Title</div> <div class="body"> <div class="item-line">Color: <input type="text" /></div> <div class="item-line">Size: <input type="text" /></div> <div class="submit-line"><input type="submit" value="Order" /></div> </div> </div> does anybody else see the aesthetic (and technical) value of this?
