0.29 NEXT

0.28 2023-08-07
    * Restore Perl 5.8 compatibility

0.27 2023-08-06
    * Allow for more whitespace in An+B formulae and in parentheses
    * Support :nth-child(n-3) to select the first three elements
    * Fix handling of :nth-of-type to actually respect the type

0.26 2021-12-15
    * Fix typo in documentation for selector_to_xpath.
      It is equivalent to
        HTML::Selector::XPath->new(shift)->to_xpath(@_)
      Reported as RT 140473 by JDEGUEST

0.25 2018-11-03
    * Add support for compiling :disabled, :selected, :checked, :text,
      :last-of-type

      I'm not sure whether the Perl XPath libaries support this, but at least
      we can compile it.

      This addresses RT #124406, thanks to Andrew Maguire

    * Test stability improvement if HTML::TreeBuilder::XPath is not installed
    * Re-release with properly fixed META.* information
      (RT 127555, reported by Dan Book)
    * No code changes, no need to upgrade

0.23 2017-03-23 (Thu Mar 23 19:35:00 GMT+1 2017)
    * seems as if "provides" in META.json makes new versions not get indexed
      properly
    * No code changes, no need to upgrade
    * We also allow static installation now, without running Makefile.PL

0.22 2016-09-23 (Fri Sep 23 21:35:00 GMT+2 2016)
      - seems as if "provides" in META.json must be a full path to the file...

      - Make test suite less verbose (Aaron Crane)

0.08 Sun Sep 18 12:31:31 PDT 2011

        The first selector was modified. (Corion)
      - :root now acts relative to the given "root" option,

      - Add CSS3 ":first-of-type" and ":nth-of-type()" pseudo-attributes (Corion)
