Under IE this isn't neccessary Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Create to different pages with the style settings i specified in details 2. Try with color: #FFFFFF with quotation marks Actual Results: Ignores colour setting Expected Results: set the colour to #FFFFFF
Mistake on reproducing steps, should be 1.Create html page with the style settings i specified in details 2. Try with color: #FFFFFF with quotation marks also, works fine for body {}, but not for A:
Quotes are not part of a color. See http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS1#color-units for the definition. I can't reproduce any differences as described between body and A:link for how they handle quotes.
Its ignoring it since its invalid, see comment 2 --> INVALID
