Sure. The "existence" of the anonymous box has to be "assumed" (indeed the spec says "... we assume that there is an anonymous block"). But then the first mentioned test http://test.csswg.org/source/contributors/microsoft/submitted/Chapter_9/anonymous-box-generation-001.xht should probably have its assertion reworded since it claims to prove the "generation" of the anonymous box, which I don't think is something provable (at least in this case). Well, all this is probably just a theoretical matter. Bruno -- Bruno Fassino http://www.brunildo.org/test
