The Flexbox ED section 9.2 step 3 has text about "auto" in the used flex-basis, in cases B,C,D,E. I believe each of those mentions really wants to say "content. Here's the chunk that I believe needs changing: # B. If the flex item has [...] # a used flex basis of 'auto', and # [...] # C. If the used flex basis is 'auto' [...] # D. Otherwise, if the used flex basis is 'auto' [...] # E. Otherwise, lay out the item into the available space # using its used flex basis [...] treating [...] auto # as max-content. Link: http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-flexbox/#algo-main-item I think in each of those cases, we really want to say "content" instead of "auto". With the new "flex-basis: content" keyword, I believe it should actually be *impossible* to have a used 'flex-basis' of auto. The current "flex-basis" spec text says that "flex-basis:auto;width:auto" produces a used value of "content", not "auto" -- here's the relevant quote for that: # The auto keyword retrieves the value of the main size property. # If that value is also auto, then the used value is 'content'. http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css-flexbox/#auto Thanks, ~DanielReceived on Thursday, 4 December 2014 21:21:25 UTC
