2004031008/trunk/W2K In the attached testcase generated content should be a block with beige background and border. Though is declared as display:block, generated content is rendered as inline. Testcase: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"> <html> <head> <title>Testcase</title> </head> <style type="text/css"> span:after { display:inline; content:attr(expl); white-space:pre; border:1px solid #999; background-color:#FDA; } </style> <body> <span expl="This should be rendered as one block.">foo</span> </body> </html>

> Though is declared as display:block, generated content is > rendered as inline. Our behavior is correct per http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/generate.html#before-after-content But it looks like in CSS2.1 that whole section on what properties are not applied to generated content, etc, has been removed. If so, we need to remove some code in nsRuleNode.cpp... Adam, can you please file a separate bug on the wrapping weirdness in that testcase?

> Our behavior is correct per > http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/generate.html#before-after-content Okay, I didn't look to CSS 2.0 specification neither following resolution of bug 17646. BTW Opera 7.50 PR 3 is rendering this testcase as CSS 2.1 says. > Adam, can you please file a separate bug on the wrapping weirdness in that > testcase? I'm sorry, but I don't see any wrapping weirdness =) I wrote attribute value with line breaks and I hope that Mozilla will display it with white-space:pre; same on several lines. Or do you mean something completely different?
Whiteboard: parity-opera
Ah, I missed white-space:pre.
Yeah, position, float, display, white-space, etc, they all apply to ::before and ::after now. In fact about the only thing that _doesn't_ apply is 'binding'.

There's an example at http://www.howtocreate.co.uk/wrongWithIE/eightpointbox.html that shows some of what can be done if position and related properties can be applied to generated content. Compare the Firefox 1.5 and Opera 8.5 renderings.
We're aware what the problem is, yes.

This works (fixed by bug 238072?) Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1b2pre) Gecko/20081011 Minefield/3.1b2pre
Yeah.
