Yes. See Jukka Korpela's pages for an outline view of what can be nested in 
what.

I aplolgize for taking so long to reply to this, and one result is that I no 
longer recall specifically what these were. But I believe you had some 
selectors you were trying to get to work that were not as specific as later 
selectors (for example, one was a class selector and one was an ID selector - 
IDs are more specific than classes) and so the class selector declarations were 
being overridden by the ID selector declarations.

I hope that helps,
