Sort of like when you hover line > boxes and the mouse pointer changes from a cursor to a text (indicates > text that may be selected. Often rendered as an I-beam.). Alan, In this testpage http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20110323/html4/c527-font-001.htm when I text-select/highlight a chunk of text (by dragging the mouse), I think we are highlighting (in reverse video) the content area if we are using Firefox 8.0 or Opera 11.60 or Konqueror 4.7.3 (I will check other browsers later). The vertical white gap between highlighted content area is the leading (or top-half-leading of current line box plus bottom-half-leading of previous line box) which is 9px in that page. If we are using Chrome 15.0.874.121, then we are highlighting the content area plus the top-half-leading of the line box plus the bottom-half-leading of the previous line box. I reached such conclusion after creating this testcase: http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/line-height-bleed-003-GT.html which is supposed to improve the [RC6] http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20110323/html4/line-height-bleed-003.htm [nightly-unstable] http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/nightly-unstable/html4/line-height-bleed-003.htm regards, Gérard -- CSS 2.1 Test suite RC6, March 23rd 2011 http://test.csswg.org/suites/css2.1/20110323/html4/toc.html Contributions to CSS 2.1 test suite http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/ Web authors' contributions to CSS 2.1 test suite http://www.gtalbot.org/BrowserBugsSection/css21testsuite/web-authors-contributions-css21-testsuite.html
