CSS Syntax-Highlighting won't recognize all keywords #216

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
The CSS rules for this code won't be highlighted equally:

    .first_rule {
       font-size: 12px;
    }
    .second_rule:hover {
       font-size: 12px;
    }

`.first_rule` will have a plain black color, but `.second_rule` will be 
highlighted in blue because it is interpreted a keyword. It seems as if 
`.first_rule` would also become a keyword, as soon as I append a pseudo class 
(or anything else beginning with a  colon) to it. This lets the user assume 
that there is a difference between the two kinds of identifiers, but indeed 
there isn't.

Please have a look here to see this in action:
