Originally reported on Google Code with ID 977

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. put css=#some_id:visible as the target to a command
2. click Find

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
expect it to highlight #some_id if it is visible. Instead I'm seeing this in the Log:
[error] locator not found: css=#some_id:visible

from #selenium

<adamgoucher>   i dont think :visible is a legit selecter
<adamgoucher>   :visible is a jquery specific selector. and while sizzle is the engine
that runs jquery it implements fairly closely the w3c spec

Does the use of :enabled or :disabled pseudo-classes work? http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-selectors/#enableddisabled

:visible isn't part of the CSS specification.

sure, :visible is not valid CSS but would be *very* handy in selenium

i used :not([style*="display: none"]) as a workaround.
