1313 - @import media, cross-folder imports, <link media> all buggy

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(Core :: CSS Parsing and Computation, defect, P2)

Description

[Hixie (not reading bugmail)]

The URI given goes to my Import Test, which really explains all
the problems. http://www.bath.ac.uk/%7Epy8ieh/internet/importtest/

In summary, the main difficulties in NGLayout at the moment are:
 (a) Failure to support the CSS2 syntax for @import -- IOW,
       @import url(foobar.css) screen;
     doesn't work.

 (b) Cross-folder imports are buggy: relative uris in a stylesheet
     should be relative TO THE STYLESHEET not to the HTML document.

 (c) The media attribute on LINK REL=STYLESHEET is not being heeded --
     if it is "tty", for example, the stylesheet should NOT be used.

There are a few other problems too, I think. Difficult to tell without the
above being fixed first.

If there are any queries with the importtest (apparent errors on my part,
uncertainty as to what should happen), then please e-mail me. My address for
matters relating to the importtest is < py8ieh=[e-mail] >.

case (b) was a side effect of case (a), we always handled the relative path
correctly. The test might be updated to test that more clearly.

Anyway, we nail the test now.

Just updating the uri, since the page moved today.
