Which one of these should be supported : a) "first-line" b) ":first-line" c) "::first-line" WebKit allows all of the above. IE9, Firefox 4 and Opera 11 will only return the pseudo-element's style for b) and c). Given a) they return the style of the element passed as first argument instead. (All browsers also do the latter given an invalid or unknown name such as ":::first-line". Interestingly, Firefox throws an out of memory exception for the latter).
