So your inference here is that if you validate CSS (or HTML) code with a tool, read the error list produced and proceed to fix those errors and revalidate until there are no errors, then the resulting code will be 100% compliant? If so. I think it’s safe to assume here that inference probably can be verified to be true in repeated testing. However, you’re assuming here that the CMS itself is put together in such a way that a dynamic page can never be put together with HTML and CSS that is nothing but perfectly fitted together in a balanced union, even as the CSS exists in one minified external style sheet and the HTML is built from many parts that could come into conflict of one another. To get into the detail of what could go wrong in a CMS in this area is beyond the scoop of this discussion and this list, but I’d say it’s a quite burdensome task to build a CMS where a scenario where there is some mismatch cannot happen and even if it could be done with some effort that would likely come with the price of a certain amount of inflexibility, that may not be very attractive in a CMS. I suppose it could work in a specific purpose-built system. But in a general system like Wordpress? ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
