We looked into this and we agree that the CSS specification is ambiguous here. We are working to provide a fix. -----Original Message----- From: Erik Dahlstrom [mailto:ed@opera.com] Sent: Tuesday, August 17, 2010 6:22 AM To: www-svg@w3.org; Patrick Dengler; Robert Longson Subject: Re: Property inheritance and the 'clipPath' element On Sun, 08 Aug 2010 14:13:43 +0200, Robert Longson <longsonr@gmail.com> wrote: > Patrick, > > The reason that > > http://samples.msdn.microsoft.com/ietestcenter/svg112/svg_harness.htm? > url=./svg112/svg/chapter_14.2.svg > > only works in IE is that the colour that is returned is "rgb(0, 0, 255)" > by > firefox rather than "blue".

For the record the above testcase has been checked into the SVGWG repository as: http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.1F2/test/svg/masking-path-geometry-01-f.svg I agree with Robert that the testcase should allow the various serializations that may occur, unless there's something in DOM 2 Style that says otherwise. A hex-color (#0000FF) could also be returned, which is what Opera currently does. I hope that a future DOM Style spec will require a specific serialization.
