I think that the example you show selects the<a> parent of a<div>, not<div>s that
have parents containing an<a>.
Yes, that's what Tab's selector selects too. The '!' after the 'a' is
important there.
Wait, I thought I'd grasped the gist of S4 but now you're confusing me :) My
reading of Tab's selector is that it
matches the<a> in<a><div/></a>.
Yep. I'd misread your mail as saying that's what you wanted to match...
What Martin's XPath matches is the<div> in<section><div/><p><a/></p></section> (amongst
many other variants). It's "all div's whose parents have an a descendent".
Ah, ok. Yeah, no way to do that in Selectors yet.
