When I use the --clean "yes" option, tidy turns presentional markup into
appropriate style rules and places them into a <STYLE></STYLE> block in the
document head.
However, if there is already one STYLE block in the original file, tidy
does NOT add its generated style rules to that block, but adds its own
block to the document head. Is this behaviour desired?
Moreover, if there are several STYLE blocks throughout the document, Tidy
moves them all to the document head, but does not concatenate them into one
block.
Also, it does not insert comment tags into its generated block (to hide the
style block content from older browsers).
In other words: A generated block should look like this:
><STYLE TYPE="text/css">
><!--
> .c1 {text-align: center;}
>-->
></STYLE>
rather than:
><STYLE TYPE="text/css">
> div.c1 {text-align: center}
></STYLE>
(I also think that it should be simply ".c1" instead of "div.c1", as this
would make it easier for the beforementioned recursive directory tidying
and extracting style blocks into an external CSS document.)
Comments? Questions?
