Can CSS select elements with specific content?

I saw this post where @sackbot14 suggested to find the answer. Unfortunately, the answer was not posted in it.

Any chance to wakeup the bear?

Basically, I would like to locate specific text on a page / within a div, and highlight it or something using HTML and CSS only [no JS, no PHP, no JQuery etc]. Tricks are welcome!

Many thanks!

Can you put spans on all this specific text or are you saying so it just finds it for you and highlights it? – Andy Oct 30 '12 at 20:29
You won't be able to do so unless you have commenting privileges, or can find some other way to reach him, I'm afraid... – BoltClock Oct 30 '12 at 20:29
what you want is impossible to solve with pure css – Michal Klouda Oct 30 '12 at 20:29
I think the question you linked to is pretty clear about it - this is not possible with only CSS. – Jasper Oct 30 '12 at 20:31
