CSS selector data type

A CSS-style selector that is used by the <style> element to define which element(s) are targeted.

MNX does not support the full complexity of CSS. For now, only two types of selectors are supported:

• Element selectors allow selecting any MNX element of the given name.
• Class selectors allow selecting any MNX element that contains the given class.

An element selector is simply the element name without any additional syntax:

<style selector="note" ...>

A class selector is the class name with a dot in front of it:

<style selector=".bolded" ...>
