Nah, fallback in divide-by-zero doesn't work well; it means we're dealing with an open range, which CSS correctly avoids in designing things. Switching to a fallback means that whatever the behavior was as it got *really close* to zero, it'll suddenly ignore and switch to your fallback, which isn't guaranteed to do the same thing. Handling divide-by-zero properly means letting calc() handle infinities (via standard float rules), and defining what happens when they escape the calc() (probably just "largest value the implementation can support for that property"). -- GitHub Notification of comment by tabatkins Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/581#issuecomment-255474040 using your GitHub account
