append-selector [type='text'] is not a selector?

[Jon Ronnenberg]

Hi all.

I'm trying to simplify my selector a bit. The output should be:
.field.field-search input[type="text"], .field.field-search input[type="password"], .field.field-search input[type="number"], .field.field-search input[type="email"], .field.field-search input[type="search"], .field.field-search input[type="tel"], .field.field-search input[type="url"] {
  text-indent: 0.25rem;
}

Right now I've got the following in my .scss:
input[type="text"], input[type="password"], input[type="number"], input[type="email"], input[type="search"], input[type="tel"], input[type="url"] {
  text-indent: 0.25rem;
}

I've tried to use:
append-selector("[type='text'], [type='password']", "input") {
  text-indent: 0.25rem;
}
As described here: http://compass-style.org/reference/compass/helpers/selectors/#append-selector
But I get Error: Invalid CSS after "append-selector": expected selector, was "("[type='text']..."
The attribute selector [type='text'] looks good to me. What am I missing? Is it a bug in append-selector?

Cheers, Jon

@dotnetCarpenter the version that ships with compass is pretty dumb. Use the new selector fn in sass: http://sass-lang.com/documentation/Sass/Script/Functions.html#selector_append-instance_method …

@dotnetCarpenter in sass it’s “selector-append”
