1434089 - Replace [moz-collapsed] with [collapsed]

Status: NEW

(SeaMonkey :: General, enhancement)

Description

[Brian Grinstead [:bgrins]]

I'd like to remove the extra selector in minimal-xul.css and there are a few usages in `suite/`. AFAICT these could be replaced directly with "collapsed": https://searchfox.org/comm-central/search?q=moz-collapsed&redirect=true.

'moz-collapsed' was introduced to temporarily collapse elements where the 'collapsed' attribute would be persisted. I don't know if it still serves that purpose in comm-central. Instead of the 'collapsed' attribute, you could also set style.visibility = "collapse".

Didn't realize that, but if it's still needed for that purpose then another option would be to re-add the rule into a document sheet like global.css.

As far as I see it it is still used for this purpose. I am a bit swaped right now but maybe stefanh has some time to look at it.

All [moz-collapsed] need to Replace with [collapsed] in these files?

As per Comment 3 it's possible the easier thing to do would be to add `[moz-collapsed="true"] { visibility: collapse; }` to a stylesheet that's loaded everywhere. Maybe communicator.css - not sure. Forwarding question to :frg.

Comment 6

[Frank-Rainer Grahl (:frg)]

I am currently swamped because of other removals of code which is used in comm-central. If you need to remove it just do. Would be only one more breakage.

I would say just move the rule to a shared CSS file as per Comment 5 to avoid extra unnecessary work
