It seems that the warning is always issued, with default settings, when one rule assigns the same value to background-color as one rule assigns to color, e.g. > a { color: black; } > b { background: black; } Well. Isn't it simply the case that we are discussing CSS, rather than CSS embedded in HTML, and therefore the CSS validator can have no knowledge as to whether an <a> element will be embedded in a <b> element, and therefore seeks to warn the user that such a usage would be ill-advised ? http://web-consultants.org.uk/sites/tests/colour-test.html However, I should report that that page, when validated, does /not/ throw up the warning that you report, at least by default : http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fweb-consultants.org.uk%2Fsites%2Ftests%2Fcolour-test.html Philip TaylorReceived on Tuesday, 4 October 2011 20:02:01 UTC
