1 /* document.getElementsBySelector(selector)
2 - returns an array of element objects from the current document
3 matching the CSS selector. Selectors can contain element names,
4 class names and ids and can be nested. For example:
5
6 elements = document.getElementsBySelect('div#main p a.external')
7
8 Will return an array of all 'a' elements with 'external' in their
9 class attribute that are contained inside 'p' elements that are
10 contained inside the 'div' element which has id="main"
11
12 New in version 0.4: Support for CSS2 and CSS3 attribute selectors:
13 See http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/#attribute-selectors
14
15 Version 0.4 - Simon Willison, March 25th 2003
16 -- Works in Phoenix 0.5, Mozilla 1.3, Opera 7, Internet Explorer 6, Internet Explorer 5 on Windows
17 -- Opera 7 fails
