/* document.getElementsBySelector(selector)

   - returns an array of element objects from the current document

     matching the CSS selector. Selectors can contain element names, 

     class names and ids and can be nested. For example:

       elements = document.getElementsBySelect('div#main p a.external')

     Will return an array of all 'a' elements with 'external' in their 

     class attribute that are contained inside 'p' elements that are 

     contained inside the 'div' element which has id="main"

   New in version 0.4: Support for CSS2 and CSS3 attribute selectors:

   See http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/#attribute-selectors
