I can't find anything right off the top of my head, but it's basically a way to select dom elements using css style selectors. So just use some css syntax in quotes and you should get all elements matching that selector.
As a side note, the css syntax it accepts is quite thorough, so don't think you're limited to the simple stuff that IE allows. On 6/30/06, Keith Davis <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
I saw something about the $$ selector on a review site, but I see nothing about this in the documentation. Can someone point me to it?

This could be just the thing I've been looking for recently as a site I'm currently developing makes heavy usage of that $$ selector and I have noticed that this can lead to a noticeable lag on page load. See http://www.sylvainzimmer.com/index.php/archives/2006/06/25/speeding-up-p rototypes-selector/ for the post.
