ie-css3.js - CSS3 pseudo selector emulation for IE 5-8

ie-css3.js is javascript library that allows Internet Explorer to identify CSS3 pseudo selectors and render any style rules defined with them. Simply include the script in your pages and start using these selectors in your style sheets they’ll work in IE

How it work

e-css3.js downloads each style sheet on the page and parses it for CSS3 pseduo selectors. If a selector is found it’s replaced by CSS class of a similar name. For example: div:nth-child(2) will become div._iecss-nth-child-2. Next, Robert Nyman’s DOMAssistant is used to find the DOM nodes matching the original CSS3 selector and the same CSS class is applied them.

Finally, the original stylesheet is replaced with the new version and any elements targeted with CSS3 selectors will be styled.

:nth-of-type
