Dear Sir, Philippe,
How are you?
I tried to validate the following stylesheet, but keep on getting errors from the CSS-validator. After consulting http://www.w3.org/tr/rec/css2/page.html I still do not understand why those errors are given. I would like you to spend a short moment for this case.
STYLESHEET:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
@media print, projection {
@page:left {margin-left:5%
margin-right:10%;
size:auto;
}
@page:right {margin-right:5%;
margin-left:10%;
size:auto;
}
@page:first {margin-top:10%
}
@page rotated {size: 29.7cm 21.0cm
}
tabel {page:rotated;
page-break-before:right;
}
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 { page-break-after: avoid;
page-break-inside: avoid;
}
pre {page-break-inside:avoid;
}
ul, ol, dl {page-break-before:avoid;
}
p {orphans:2;
widows:2;
}
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ERRORS GIVEN:

Parse Error - }
Regel: 13 Ongeldig getal : size

Regel: 27
Parse error - Unrecognized : }
b..
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It appears to me that bracket's should be closed (27).
Margin given in % or cm should be allowed (11).
I valued size with landscape, but even that was parsed as an error (13).
The error in line 5 makes no sense to me,because it is just the 'opposite'of @page:right, with is parsed as no-error.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Your comments are remarks are valuable for teaching-purposes.
I thank you in advance.
