100
101 <p>It is so flexible language that a conceptually same pattern
102 can be represented in inifnite numbers of instances of selectors.
103 It might be convinient for e.g. validation of a test result to
104 define a subset of the language, in which no semantically equivalent
105 selectors are contained.</p>

111 is trying to define an algorithm to

114 attribute. However, the algorithm is incomplete
115 <time datetime=2007-09-25>at the time of the writing</time>.
116 Note that current Web browser implementations
117 of the <code>selectorText</code> attribute are consistently broken
118 in not escaping unsafe identifiers and therefore it is not wise
119 to deploy that format for testing.</p>
