CSS to XPath

Package Exports

  • csstoxpath

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (csstoxpath) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Build Status

CSS to XPath

Converts most CSS 2.1/3 selectors (see exclusions below) to equivalent XPath 1.0 expression.

See test.js for examples.

Custom pseudos

To take advantage of the different capabilities of XPath several custom pseudo selectors have been implemented:

:text

All text matching pseudo classes normalize whitespace and ignore tags. E.g. " my <i>string</i> " is treated as "my string".

  • :text("foo") Case-insensitive matching of element text
  • :text-case("foo") Case-sensitive :text-case
  • :text-contains("foo") Case-insensitive substring matching of element text
  • :text-contains-case("foo") Case-sensitive :text-contains
  • :text-start("foo") Case-insensitive matching of element starting text
  • :text-start-case("foo") Case-sensitive :text-start
  • :text-end("foo") Case-insensitive matching of element ending text
  • :text-end-case("foo") Case-sensitive :text-end

:any

Selectors containing multiple options, any one of which will be matched:

E.g: div :any(ol, ul, dl) > * equates to div ol > *, div ul > *, div dl > *

:comment

  • :comment Select comment nodes
  • :comment(n) Select comment nodes at child position n

Note: Can be combined with :text to match based on comment text content. E.g. p > :comment:text("foo")

:childless

As :empty but ignoring whitespace.

Unsupported psuedos

The following may be supported at a later date:

  • :nth-last-child

Part-dynamic pseudos are excluded as they can only be partially supported by attribute matching:

  • :checked
  • :disabled
  • :enabled
  • :required
  • :lang

The following cannot be implemented in XPath 1.0:

  • :*-of-type
  • States: :hover, :focus, :active, :visited, :target etc.
  • Elements: ::before, ::after, ::first-letter etc.
