11  * CSS-like element selector, that finds elements matching a query.
12  *
13  * <h2>Selector syntax</h2>
14  * <p>
15  * A selector is a chain of simple selectors, separated by combinators. Selectors are <b>case insensitive</b> (including against
16  * elements, attributes, and attribute values).
17  * </p>
18  * <p>
19  * The universal selector {@code *} is implicit when no element selector is supplied (i.e. {@code .header} and {@code *.header}
20  * are equivalent).
21  * </p>
22  * <style>table.syntax tr td {vertical-align: top; padding-right: 2em; padding-top:0.5em; padding-bottom:0.5em; } table.syntax tr:hover{background-color: #eee;} table.syntax {border-spacing: 0px 0px;}</style>

62  * <tr><td></td><td>The above may be combined in any order and with other selectors</td><td><code>.light:contains(name):eq(0)</code></td></tr>

64  * <tr><td colspan="3"><h3>Structural pseudo selectors</h3></td></tr>
65  * <tr><td><code>:root</code></td><td>The element that is the root of the document. In HTML, this is the <code>html</code> element</td><td><code>:root</code></td></tr>

For values of <code>a</code> and <code>b</code> greater than zero, this effectively divides the element's children into groups of a elements (the last group taking the remainder), and selecting the <em>b</em>th element of each group. For example, this allows the selectors to address every other row in a table, and could be used to alternate the color of paragraph text in a cycle of four. The <code>a</code> and <code>b</code> values must be integers (positive, negative, or zero). The index of the first child of an element is 1.</p>
67  * Additionally, <code>:nth-child()</code> supports <code>odd</code> and <code>even</code> as arguments. <code>odd</code> is the same as <code>2n+1</code>, and <code>even</code> is the same as <code>2n</code>.</td><td><code>tr:nth-child(2n+1)</code> finds every odd row of a table. <code>:nth-child(10n-1)</code> the 9th, 19th, 29th, etc, element. <code>li:nth-child(5)</code> the 5h li</td></tr>
68  * <tr><td><code>:nth-last-child(<em>a</em>n+<em>b</em>)</code></td><td>elements that have <code><em>a</em>n+<em>b</em>-1</code> siblings <b>after</b> it in the document tree. Otherwise like <code>:nth-child()</code></td><td><code>tr:nth-last-child(-n+2)</code> the last two rows of a table</td></tr>
69  * <tr><td><code>:nth-of-type(<em>a</em>n+<em>b</em>)</code></td><td>pseudo-class notation represents an element that has <code><em>a</em>n+<em>b</em>-1</code> siblings with the same expanded element name <em>before</em> it in the document tree, for any zero or positive integer value of n, and has a parent element</td><td><code>img:nth-of-type(2n+1)</code></td></tr>

71  * <tr><td><code>:first-child</code></td><td>elements that are the first child of some other element.</td><td><code>div {@literal >} p:first-child</code></td></tr>
72  * <tr><td><code>:last-child</code></td><td>elements that are the last child of some other element.</td><td><code>ol {@literal >} li:last-child</code></td></tr>
73  * <tr><td><code>:first-of-type</code></td><td>elements that are the first sibling of its type in the list of children of its parent element</td><td><code>dl dt:first-of-type</code></td></tr>
74  * <tr><td><code>:last-of-type</code></td><td>elements that are the last sibling of its type in the list of children of its parent element</td><td><code>tr {@literal >} td:last-of-type</code></td></tr>
75  * <tr><td><code>:only-child</code></td><td>elements that have a parent element and whose parent element have no other element children</td><td></td></tr>
76  * <tr><td><code>:only-of-type</code></td><td> an element that has a parent element and whose parent element has no other element children with the same expanded element name</td><td></td></tr>

79  *
80  * <p>A word on using regular expressions in these selectors: depending on the content of the regex, you will need to quote the pattern using <b><code>Pattern.quote("regex")</code></b> for it to parse correctly through both the selector parser and the regex parser. E.g. <code>String query = "div:matches(" + Pattern.quote(regex) + ");"</code>.</p>
81  * <p><b>Escaping special characters:</b> to match a tag, ID, or other selector that does not follow the regular CSS syntax, the query must be escaped with the <code>\</code> character. For example, to match by ID {@code <p id="i.d">}, use {@code document.select("#i\\.d")}.</p>
