No (as you say, CSS1 doesn't expect a space after escapes) but that doesn't matter, because all the major browsers support the CSS2 way: http://www.hixie.ch/tests/adhoc/css/parsing/escaping/003.html There aren't any CSS1 compliant UAs to my knowledge. (Note: IE5 and Konqueror suck big time and get both the CSS1 and CSS2 ways wrong. I think they might not support escapes at all. On Windows, Opera, Mozilla, and IE6 pass it as CSS2 UAs.) -- Ian Hickson )\._.,--....,'``. fL "meow" /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,. http://index.hixie.ch/ `._.-(,_..'--(,_..'`-.;.'
