http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=11239 --- Comment #23 from Ian 'Hixie' Hickson <ian@hixie.ch> 2011-04-27 01:39:44 UTC --- (In reply to comment #22) > Blink rates on all OS platforms return a rate in milliseconds. They do not > return two values. A time in milliseconds is not a rate. It's an interval. Rates are in Hertz (or some other unit with dimension [1/T]). The proposal doesn't say what the return value is other than to say it must be a rate and must be in milliseconds, which is self-contradictory and leaves the reader wondering what the number means: the complete period, a half period, the time the caret is on, the time the caret is off, the frequency? It's simply not defined well enough to be interoperably implementable. > A negative number is means there is no setting in the OS applied. What is the > problem? Which negative number? We can't leave things undefined. It's not 1995 any more. (Also, how can the OS not have a blink rate? Do you have an example of such an OS?) -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
