The CSSStyleDeclaration interface is missing a heading and, therefore, missing from the TOC.
This should be fixed.
Has DOMImplementationCSS been obsoleted too? It's not listed in that referenced e-mail and not in the current draft.
This should now be mentioned in the draft. In DOM Level 2 Style it didn't really solve any use cases so retaining it didn't seem necessary.
With CSSStyleDeclarationProperties, I assume those are going to be backwards compatible with the existing properties specified by CSS2Properties, but I don't understand the types like CSSAngleValue, CSSColorValue, CSSLengthValue, etc
Those types are there to allow things like: .style.color.red = 200; or .style.color.red++
They're obviously to be defined, but CSS2Properties defined all those properties as DOMString, so they'd have to be some form of string, but their name suggests some kind of similarity to CSSValue, which is obsolete.
Well, the plan is to design CSSValue again in a way that works nice. For ECMAScript at least. I'm currently calling it CSSPropertyValue although I'm tempted to just name it CSSValue again given that the former was obsoleted anyway...
I think CSSPropertyValue should probably inherit from DOMString to make it all work.
But, assuming they will be backwards compatible with DOMString, couldn't you just redefine the existing CSSProperties interface instead of introducing a new one?
I'd like to use the interface for all properties, not just CSS2Properties. Also, I'm not sure how compatible it would be with other languages...
Finally, my name is missing from the Acknowledgements list. :-)
Not anymore. Further comments can be e-mailed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] or directly to me. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
