310560 - Properties color and height/size take no effect on <hr>-Tag when used in css

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 239208

(Firefox :: General, defect)

Description

[feanor_m]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050915 Firefox/1.0.7

Using the properties "height" and "color" on the <hr>-Tag in an css-File takes
no effect on the line created in Mozilla (it DOES in IE). The line stays in
standard-color and -height. Using color and size-properties as attribute in
<hr>-Tag (<hr <hr color="#ff0000" size="1px">) has the correct effect. Using
"height" (as Level 1 CSS-property instead of "size" as Level 2 CSS) instead fails.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Create a CSS-file with hr{size: 1px; color: blue;}
2.create a html-file including the css with standard <hr>-tag used as css and
then using <hr color="blue" size="1px">
3. view the html-file in Firefox 

Actual Results:  
The lines are not the same, as described above.

Expected Results:  
Lines should look the same.

A cross-browser compatible CSS equivalent of <hr color="blue" size="1px"> is 
more like <hr style="border: 0; border-top: 1px solid blue; height: 0">. See 
also bug 190655.

Well, that's right as I see. But isn't it unusual to use THOSE attributes?
Wouldn't it be better to use the attributes I mentioned?
I never would have tried border-top to get the effect...
