For example, <a href="http://words words words"> does not match :link in Gecko, since that attribute value cannot be parsed as a URI (spaced not allowed in hostnames). Similarly, data:text/html,<a href="test"> is not a :link, since you can't resolve a relative URI if the base is a data: URI. There are various other cases. Basically, something should match :link if it acts like a link... -Boris
