In a CSS selector, "XMI.header" is a shorthand notation for "XMI[class=header]". See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/selector.html#class-html You need to escape the '.' using a '\'. Example: XMI\.header:before { display: block; content: "Header"; color: red; } See http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/syndata.html#tokenization
