What you've got there is a lot of inputs to that function and I don't know if that kind of complexity is in best the interests of CSS. It also doesn't specify a direction, so would require another value input as well. If it were my choice, I'd put a more advanced gradient like out-of-scope and leave it to SVG. The only other way of specifying direction than degrees that I can think of would be compass points, with an enumeration for north, north-east, east and so forth. That is far less flexible though, and I can't see that any user of CSS would have problem using degrees; I can't see anything wrong with degrees myself. Ben http://ben-ward.co.uk
