Often, my comments on testcases says "need more work" or "need adjustments" and those testcases should just be considered as needing adjustements or requiring an alt attribute here or a better/more correct meta assert text there, etc. In the past, I have often provided replacements or suggested alternatives myself than pure/gratuitious rejections and I have rehabilitated a bunch of testcases which were rejected ( outline-width-096.htm , z-index-stack-003.htm , float-006.htm spring into my mind here). It would be ridiculous to reject a testcase just because an alt attribute is missing or because the "taller" word seems preferable to the "larger" word. Sorry about that. regards, Gérard -- Contributions to the CSS 2.1 test suite: http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/ CSS 2.1 test suite (beta 3; August 15th 2010): http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20100815/html4/toc.html CSS 2.1 test suite contributors: http://test.csswg.org/source/contributors/
