> CSS Cascade mentions that pseudo-elements inherit their style based on the fictional markup representation Yes, but various anon boxes are not pseudo-elements. (And note that pseudo-elements may have style but no box, even; they're just a totally distinct concept.) > or from the generated content. There is no "generated content" here. In any case, this part is well-specified: inheritance happens on the element tree, and anon boxes do not contribute to that tree in any way. So they don't affect inheritance of elements. I think we all agree on the behavior. And that it's not observable whether you inherit from your "parent" or the nearest "ancestor element". But the spec doesn't even have a concept of _style_ for these boxes at the moment! (Note that I think ruby has all the same issues, for the same reasons.) -- GitHub Notification of comment by bzbarsky Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/1059#issuecomment-282216021 using your GitHub account
