Pending review on two CSS issues

I believe these two PF/CSS issues can be closed. If you disagree, please respond before the next PF call on the morning of Wednesday August 13th. Thanks.


> ACTION-931: Drive working with CSS on how various mouse cursor options should be chosen

I think this works well as-is. The CSS cursor property defines types and the large mouse cursors work well on OS X for standard and HiDPI displays. If there is a problem with a particular property or system, we'll need a more specific action.


> ACTION-932: Explore CSS generated content more
> https://www.w3.org/WAI/PF/Group/track/actions/932

This will be addressed in the CSS4 Generated Content module as a new "alt"property. Like the "content" property, it is limited to CSS-generated content, so only allowed on ::before/::after pseudo-elements, counters, etc.

WebKit nightlies and OSX/iOS betas support -webkit-alt in the meantime.

For example:

link.new::after {
 content: url(./img/star.png);
 alt: "New!" /* or localized value as attr(data-foo); */
 -webkit-alt: "New!";
}
