My original post could hardly be considered "griping and moaning", I was
merely pointing out some deficiences in the CSS selection rules.

Besides, why does it matter *what* I want to do ? It makes no difference.

If it makes you happy, this is what I want to do:
Give all <div> tags, that have a child <img> element a 10px blue border.

How do I go about selecting these <div> tags without resorting to using
a class ?
