Hi,
Some comments on
http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/WD-css3-background-20010924
General:
Please use XHTML in the examples or make the examples at least as
well-formed as possible, e.g. include end-tags for elements that allow
the omission of it.
Abstract:
[...]
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is a language for describing the
rendering of HTML and XML documents on screen, on paper, in speech,
etc.
[...]
I think this should be "... presentation of structured documents ..."
since CSS limits itself by no means to those two languages.
1. Dependencies with other CSS 3 Modules:
[...]
* Value Assignment, Cascade and Inheritance
[...]
These modules are called "Values and Units" and "Cascading and
Inheritance".
2.1. Changes from CSS 2:
I like this section, it would be a good idea if other modules also
introduce such a section in upcoming drafts. This module lacks of some
summary table of the defined properties, I recommend to add one.
3. Background:
[...]
The background of the box generated by the root element covers the
entire canvas.
[...]
Thus margin properties don't apply to the root element or aren't margins
of the root element not part of the "canvas"?
[...]
For HTML documents, however, we recommend that authors specify the
background for the BODY element rather than the HTML element.
[...]
Why? Does this also apply to XHTML documents?
regards,
