Not sure how I’d reference the state of another element with this right-hand spec proposal. I’ve had several times where i needed at least simple cross references to just things like :hover. For example, change the color of an element based on if some other element in the DOM tree has :hover on it, or :active. I don’t see how a selector on the right-hand side can select that state. (maybe store the state in the source element as a variable?) CSS does need a stateful representational model that perhaps includes time-domain considerations and variable storage… this could get rid of a lot of Javascript usage. -bobby --- Bobby Mozumder Editor-in-Chief FutureClaw Magazine mozumder@futureclaw.com 1-240-745-5287 www.futureclaw.com www.twitter.com/futureclaw On Jun 12, 2014, at 1:04 PM, Boris Zbarsky <bzbarsky@mit.edu> wrote: > On 6/12/14, 12:59 PM, Marat Tanalin wrote: >> I meant effective pixel value of course > > This is even more of a performance problem.
