[CSS21] response to issue 49

This is the CSS WG's response to an issue you raised on the last CSS
2.1 draft (http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/WD-CSS21-20030915). We want to
publish CSS 2.1 as a CR in about two weeks. Please let us know this
week if you think our response is wrong.

Your e-mail:
    http://www.w3.org/mid/200309282052.h8SKqWwA020953@nerd-xing.mit.edu

    Section 5.11.3 (The dynamic pseudo-classes: :hover, :active, and
    :focus)
    <http://www.w3.org/Style/css2-updates/WD-CSS21-20030915-diff/selector.html#dynamic-pseudo-classes>
    If an element is hovered, are its ancestors considered hovered?

CSS WG response:

    Leaving this undefined for CSS21. Added that whether :hover and
    :active apply to ancestors is undefined. Added note at end of
    5.11.3 about :active in CSS1 only applying to links.



For the CSS WG,
Bert
