I've added support for several of the proposed syntax ideas for CSS variables to WebKit. They are basically all co-existing side by side in WebKit right now. The idea is for people to try out test cases to help get a feel for which syntax works best (or you can just proclaim which syntax you think is best right now without writing any tests at all). ;) For the rules, the following syntax works: (1) @-webkit-variables { ... } @-webkit-variables screen { ... } (2) @-webkit-define { ... } @-webkit-define for screen { ... } For variable references, the following syntax works: (1) -webkit-var(foo) (2) =foo= (3) $foo One concern about using a symbol to represent a variable is that there is no way to vendor-prefix it. Then again, just using a symbol like = or $ looks nicer than the ugly "-webkit-var" notation. dave (hyatt@apple.com)Received on Friday, 25 July 2008 18:40:00 GMT
