thanks tab,
that doesn't happen and agree it shouldn't happen.
aren't the CSS hooks based on the tag/attribute names etc in the DOM?
you can have styles associated using the aria attribute names, but
that has nothing to do with their function only that they are
recognised bits in the DOM right?
so you can do
a[role] {
color : red ;
}
but that is no different from doing
a[hreflang] {
color : blue ;
}
the semantics of the attribute makes no difference right?
or is use of role/aria-* soemthing that should not be allowed?
regards
