Selector (CSS)
From Wiki @ Karl Jones dot com
In CSS, selectors are pattern matching rules that determine which style rules apply to elements in the document tree.
If all conditions in the pattern are true for a certain element, the selector matches the element.
Selectors may range from simple element names to rich contextual patterns.
The case-sensitivity of document language element names in selectors depends on the document language. For example, in HTML, element names are case-insensitive, but in XML they are case-sensitive.
