Level-specific headline selectors

Ok, these are stupid, but I’m finding them useful (because the fewer keystrokes, the happier I am).

?2 : h2 ?3 : h3 ?4 : h4

On a well marked-up blog page, these will usually help you quickly narrow down the search to just article headlines, skipping sub-headlines and sidebars. Not perfect, but a quick solution for new pages you probably won’t be back to.

tuaw.com : h2.posttitle>a[rel=bookmark],a.next-page

Includes the “next” button when you tab out of the last article on the page.

Next!

n : a[class^=next],a[rel=next],a:contains("Next"),a:contains("Older"),a:contains("More")

A work in progress, but working on many sites. Just type ?n on a results page or listing, and it looks for the “Next” button (or “older posts”, “more results”, etc.).
