You can now finally see why Niels Leenheer won the Summer contest. The javascript based CSS selectors test he created is now up and running, and it’s über cool. He discovered quite a few bugs in various browsers while in the process of creating this test, so it worked in all ways. Go check it out!
And don’t forget out the blogpost Niels made about the CSS selector bugs he discovered.
You can skip to the end and leave a response.

Awesome stuff! .. I thought that IE7 supports attribute selector :/

however it looks as it has some issues.. at least some test cases are not precise.
IE6 doesn’t seem to support :first-child or nth-child() at all.. while this tests show it’s successfull in many cases.. (??) -

Medyk: The testcases that IE6 supports are the so called ‘control’ cases.
Take for example :first-child. There is a testcase that checks if the first child is matched by the selector, but there is also a control test case that makes sure the other children are not matched.
The control test cases will usually pass, even when the selector is not supported. This doesn’t mean anything. It is only significant if the selector is supported and one of these control test cases fails. This is an indication that there is a bug in the implementation of the selector.

Very good; I think it could be improved even further, but still very good.
I made my own effort a while ago, but it’s nowhere near as polished as this.

ah.. now I got it.
Thanks for explanation. I didn’t look throughly at first.
There’s still one thing that puzzles me a bit – it’s space between element names and pseudo class selectors in test cases list.. I think that’s not valid (?).. I know it’s just listing.. but.
Anyway really great tool… for long time I didn’t approached something that usefull. -
