Yes I saw that before I sent my question out to the list. I got a little confused by the link to the
CSS Grammer. And some of the noations in on of the comment replies:
"Identifiers beginning with a dash or underscore are typically reserved for browser-specific
extensions, as in -moz-opacity."
"1. Note that, according to the grammar I linked, a rule starting with TWO dashes, e.g. --indent1,
is invalid. However, I'm pretty sure I've seen this in practice."
"2. It's all made a bit more complicated by the inclusion of escaped unicode characters (that no one
really uses)."
So I guess, in essence the answer is NO you cannot begin a class or ID name with numeric
characters?
