Research direction

Run the provided CSSParser.parseString reproduction first, then trace how selectorList[0].specificity is calculated for the shown selector. Compare the result with the expected specificity from the linked calculator; done means the reported specificity is corrected and the reproduction no longer shows the discrepancy.

Description

help wanted

Hello,

I got wrong specificity on this selector .form-floating > .form-control:focus ~ label::after, with https://specificity.keegan.st/ I see 032 whereas with your tool 022

Script to reproduce :

from cssutils import CSSParser


parser = CSSParser(parseComments=False, validate=None)
allrules = parser.parseString(
    ".form-floating > .form-control:focus ~ label::after{color:red}"
)
for el in allrules:
    print(el.selectorList[0].specificity)  # (0, 0, 2, 2)

Thanks
