Escaping hash characters and whitespace is _not_ supported as neither
are valid element/attribute names (e.g. <foo#bar /> is invalid
XML/HTML).
Escaping single/double quotes also won't be supported for the time
being. It's quite a pain to get this to work right in not just CSS but
also XPath and XML/HTML, for very little gain. Should there be enough
users with an actual use case (other than "But the spec says ...!") I'll
look into this again.
Fixes#124
This does _not_ support element states such as DISABLED, nor does it
support the special handling of namespaces (e.g. *|*:not(*)). Instead
this selector basically acts as a negation, some examples:
:not(foo) # All but any "foo" nodes
:not(#foo) # Skips nodes with id="foo"
:not(.foo) # Skips nodes with a class "foo"
Fixes#125
''.start_with?('') returns false on JRuby 1.7. While I'd love to drop
support for shit like this, JRuby 1.7 is still in common use today, so
lets just work around this for now.
This updates the CSS parser to make it compatible with the XPath AST
changes introduced in commit 365a9e9fa9.
This also, finally, means I can get rid of some of the hacks that were
used for "+ foo" selectors and building (path) nodes.
This changes the XPath AST so that every segment in a path (e.g.
foo/bar) is parsed as a child node of the node that precedes it. For
example, take the following expression:
foo/bar
This used to be parsed into the following AST:
(path
(axis "child" (test nil "foo"))
(axis "child" (test nil "bar")))
This is now parsed into the following AST:
(axis "child"
(test nil "foo")
(axis "child"
(test nil "bar")))
This new AST is much easier to deal with in the XPath::Compiler class,
especially when trying to ensure that each segment operates on the
correct input.
This commit also fixes parsing of type tests with predicates, such as:
comment()[10]
This used to throw a parser error.
Handling of predicates is delegated to 3 different methods:
* on_predicate_direct: for predicates such as foo[bar] and foo[x < y].
* on_predicate_temporary: for predicates that use the last() function
somewhere.
* on_predicate_index: for predicates that only contain a literal index,
foo[10] being an example.
This enables the compiler to use more optimized code depending on the
type of predicate while still being able to support last() and
position().
The code is currently still quite rough on the edges, this will be taken
care of in following commits.
This was a hack that never should've made it into the code in the first
place. This breaks some of the CSS specs, but this should be taken care
of when I refactor predicate support.
