Currently it is not very detailed whether or not the CSS parser is used. All browser vendors I talked to already use the CSS parser although they have some additional processing on top of that for rules in HTML4 which no longer seem necessary. There is an HTML5 validation project that does not use CSS parsing. What would change is that the specification would be more explicit about what is required. Either it "simply" requires CSS syntax or it requires one syntax for outside CSS and one for inside CSS. I think so far most people prefer the former. > Perhaps this was already covered in discussion but if not - is this a > small change or will somebody implementing this from scratch have to > learn everything about CSS parsing? If you do not have support for CSS already and will not get it (in case of HTML-only validators for instance) you would indeed need a more complex parser. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/> <http://www.opera.com/>
