Hello all, Section 17.6.2.1 Border conflict resolution http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/tables.html#border-conflict-resolution There are 2 diagrams with 2 code chunks in that section. The colors are wrong (faded, not reliable) and the code could be also a bit more precise. First diagram ( http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/images/tbl-border-conflict.png ) ============= Actual code ----------- table { border-collapse: collapse; border: 5px solid yellow; } *#col1 { border: 3px solid black; } td { border: 1px solid red; padding: 1em; } td.cell5 { border: 5px dashed blue; } td.cell6 { border: 5px solid green; } Proposed replacement -------------------- table { border-collapse: collapse; border: 5px solid yellow; font-variant: italic; } *#col1 { border: 3px solid black; } td { border: 1px solid red; padding: 1em; } td.cell5 { border: 5px dashed #9370D8; /* mediumpurple */} td.cell6 { border: 5px solid lime; } Another idea would be to recreate the diagram http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/images/tbl-border-conflict.png so that it would match the actual code. There is a definite need to either update the code or the diagram. This testcase http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20101210/html4/border-conflict-example-001.htm even says: "the bottom image might appear slightly faded." Second diagram ( http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/images/CSStbl3.png ) ============== Actual code ----------- <TABLE style="border-collapse: collapse; border: solid;"> <TR><TD style="border-right: hidden; border-bottom: hidden">foo</TD> <TD style="border: solid">bar</TD></TR> <TR><TD style="border: none">foo</TD> <TD style="border: solid">bar</TD></TR> </TABLE> Proposed replacement -------------------- <TABLE style="border-collapse: collapse; border: gray solid; background-color: silver;"> <TR><TD style="border-right: hidden; border-bottom: hidden">foo</TD> <TD style="border: solid">bar</TD></TR> <TR><TD style="border: none">foo</TD> <TD style="border: solid">bar</TD></TR> </TABLE> Another idea would be to recreate the diagram to avoid the grayist silver background-color so that it would match the actual code. There is a definite need to either update the code or the diagram. This testcase http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20101210/html4/border-conflict-example-002.htm even says: "border and cell shading may vary between the two tables." regards, Gérard -- CSS 2.1 Test suite RC4 (December 10th 2010) http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20101210/html4/toc.html Contributions to CSS 2.1 test suite http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/ Web authors' contributions to CSS 2.1 test suite http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/web-authors-contributions-css21-testsuite.htmlReceived on Sunday, 9 January 2011 05:18:52 UTC
