Hello css wg,
A question about the correctness of the following piece of CSS, which can
be seen in context here[1].
<style type="text/css">
<![CDATA[
@font-face {
font-family: 'Super Sans';
font-weight: normal;
font-style: italic;
src: url("myfont.svg#Font2") format(svg)
}
]]>
</style>
The 'src' syntax[2] in CSS 2.0 (and in all CSS 3.0 drafts I've seen so
far) says that 'format' must contain a <string>, which means "svg" needs
to be quoted. Is that the intention? It seems that Safari 3.1.1 accepts
unquoted strings in format.
There's also a 1.1 testcase, fonts-elem-04-b.svg[3], that has the same
"bug" in it.
Cheers
/Erik
