@ -4,7 +4,7 @@
The concept of procedural cosmetic filtering was introduced with uBlock Origin ("uBO") [version 1.8.0](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.8.0).
The initial implementation was revised to allow chained/recursive use of the procedural operators with version [1.11.0](https://github.com/gorhill/uBlock/releases/tag/1.11.0)+. There is no limit on the number of operators chained, or the number of recursion level, aside common sense. Though, chaining to native CSS selector after procedural one was not supported before 1.17.5rc1. As a reminder, use procedural cosmetic filters only for when plain CSS selectors won't solve a case.

Normal, standard cosmetic filters are _declarative_, i.e. they are used as selector in a CSS rule, and completely handled by browsers through `style` tag elements.
