Re: [CSS-transforms] rotate(<angle>[, <translation-value>, <translation-value>])

Both is correct. We have the spec text:
"The computed value of the transform property is a matrix() or matrix3d() value that describes the matrix that results from concatenating the individual transform functions"

and the issue 6:
"We need to resolve whether the computed value is the same as the specified value, or matrix()."

I would be happy if that changes. But should be another threat.

Hi Dirk,

just to make it clear to me. The issue you are trying to resolve is if you have content that is like:
<HTML>
...
<svg>
...
<g id='id' transform="rotate(45, 10, 10)">

and you call:
getcomputedStyle(document.getElementById("id")).transform

it should return:
"rotate(45deg, 10px, 10px)"

With the current specification it would return a matrix. Like for every function. This is also implemented by all browser that way. But for SVG DOM you would get a rotate as transformation function, yes.

But I don't think the spec requires a matrix, does it? We have an open bug in WebKit to do a better job of returning the original sequence of transform functions when possible.
