I agree "except" is clearer. I pushed an update to fix this and the out of date note that Rick pointed out: https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/pointerevents/raw-file/tip/pointerEvents.html#the-touch-action-css-property "Applies to: all elements except: non-replaced inline elements, table rows, row groups, table columns, and column groups" "Note: The touch-action property applies only to elements that support both the CSS width and height properties (see [CSS21] ). This restriction is designed to facilitate user agent optimizations for low-latency touch actions. For elements not supported by default, such as <span> which is a non-replaced inline element (see [HTML5]), authors can set the display CSS property to a value, such as block, that supports width and height. Future specifications could extend this API to all elements.." -Jacob -----Original Message----- From: Arthur Barstow [mailto:art.barstow@nokia.com] Sent: Wednesday, March 26, 2014 11:19 AM To: Cathy.Chan@nokia.com; Jacob Rossi; rbyers@google.com Cc: public-pointer-events@w3.org; gnanasekar.s@samsung.com Subject: Re: Touch-action to SVG elements On 3/26/14 1:47 PM, ext Cathy.Chan@nokia.com wrote: > > Maybe it's just me, but as a non-native speaker, I had to think twice > to parse the word "but".

(Although rather than repeat the list, perhaps a new link to the normative text above could be used.) -AB > *From:*ext Jacob Rossi [mailto:Jacob.Rossi@microsoft.com] > *Sent:* Tuesday, March 25, 2014 2:59 PM > *To:* Rick Byers > *Cc:* public-pointer-events@w3.org; gnanasekar.s@samsung.com; Douglas > Schepers > *Subject:* RE: Touch-action to SVG elements > > Spec has been updated: > > https://dvcs.w3.org/hg/pointerevents/raw-file/tip/pointerEvents.html#the-touch-action-css-property > > -Jacob > >
