Details

See test #3 of the uri quoted.

This is an error-handling bug.


Note, BTW, that supporting
  P:first-line.three
as is being 'supported' in that test is not only a violation of CSS1, it
is also nonsensical. After all, how can a pseudo-class have a class? The
markup cannot access it to *give* it a class!!!

The correct CSS would be:
  P.three:first-line
which is perfectly valid and *does* make sense (and is also supported by
NGLayout, no problem there).

Oops. Misread the spec when adding CSS2 selector support. I thought this was
allowed.
