The current pseudo-element syntax isn't intuitive at all and only work in real life because of the limitations we're enforcing (no conditions on the pseudo-element, only one pseudo-element, ...). When we'll extend the scope of pseudo-elements, it'll be way better to use a true combinator to distinct them from pseudo-classes and allow insignificant formatting spaces between them. BTW, distinguishing "a::before:hover" vs "a:hover::before" is particulary tricky while "a :: before:hover" is clearly distinct from "a:hover :: before".Received on Friday, 6 April 2012 08:56:33 UTC
