442: <p>The following production is added to the grammar:</p>
443:
444: <pre>global
445: : GLOBAL_SYM S* ruleset

447:
448: <p>The following rules are added to the Flex tokenizer:</p>

450: <pre>B b|\\0{0,4}(42|62)(\r\n|[ \t\r\n\f])?

454: processed in the same way as normal rule sets in non-scoped CSS
455: resources.</p>
456:
457: <p>Simple selectors in scoped CSS resources that are not prefixed by
458: an <code title="">@global</code> @-rule must only match the
459: <code><a href="#the-style-element">style</a></code> element's parent element (if any), and that
460: element's descendants.</p>
461:
462: <p>For scoped CSS resources, the effect of other @-rules must be
463: scoped to the scoped sheet and its subresources, even if the @-rule
464: in question would ordinarily apply to all style sheets that affect
465: the <code><a href="dom.html#document">Document</a></code>. Any '@page' rules in scoped CSS resources
1.1 mike 466: must be ignored.</p>
467:
468: <p class="example">For example, an '@font-face' rule defined in a
469: scoped style sheet would only define the font for the purposes of
470: font rules in the scoped section; style sheets outside the scoped
471: section using the same font name would not end up using that
472: embedded font.</p>
