What does “body > *” mean in CSS?

Question

I am trying to understand the CSS effects that jQTouch implements. http://www.jqtouch.com/

It has some CSS definitions that contain syntax like body > *<

Answer 1

The > character is a match indicator and the * is the match being indicated.

So

body > * 

means to match any child of Body.
