Or, rather, it has a bit of extra wording that's no longer doing anything. I think you can delete the text: # Five aspects of a DOM element are especially relevant for # selectors: # # * The element’s type (also known as tagname), which is a # string. # * The element’s namespace, which is a string. # * An ID, which is a string. # * Classes, which are strings. # * Attributes, which are pairs of strings consisting of an # attribute name and an attribute value. # # While individual elements may lack any of the above features, since it's no longer relevant to what follows it. (At this point it also makes it a bit unclear whether "featureless" is still a good term.) -David -- 𝄞 L.
