188972 - -moz-use-text-color is sometimes serialized for the border shorthand

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 376075

(Core :: DOM: CSS Object Model, defect)

Description

[Vladimir Ermakov]

If I set border property on one div to dotted, and set border-top property on
another div to dotted. When I get the values of borderTop of both divs from
javascript I get:
test0.style.borderTop = medium dotted -moz-use-text-color
test1.style.borderTop = medium dotted 

Which is inconsistent. There is no color for the second borderTop. I dont know
what is correct, to show the color, or not to show the color, but the two cases
should be consistent. Probably the right behaviour would be what IE does, just
show "dotted" because other properties are default.

Daniel, plans to land this patch? It looks like it may have bitrotted a bit,
though....

This looks as if it would make the style string end in a space :-(

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

Hmm... that it could do, yes.  We probably want to avoid that...
