691306 - Style Inspector MDN help links fail to lead to MDN articles for some properties

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(DevTools :: General, defect, P2)

Description

[Mike Ratcliffe [:miker] [:mratcliffe] [:mikeratcliffe]]

The following CSS properties are not listed under https://developer.mozilla.org/en/CSS/property-name. This is because they are listed as SVG attributes at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/SVG/Attribute/property-name instead. The style inspector should point at the correct address.

color-interpolation
color-interpolation-filters
dominant-baseline
fill
fill-opacity
fill-rule
flood-color
flood-opacity
lighting-color
marker-end
marker-mid
marker-start
shape-rendering
stop-color
stop-opacity
stroke
stroke-dasharray
stroke-dashoffset
stroke-linecap
stroke-linejoin
stroke-miterlimit
stroke-opacity
stroke-width
text-anchor

The following properties would work if we strip the -moz- prefix:

-moz-animation-delay
-moz-animation-direction
-moz-animation-duration
-moz-animation-fill-mode
-moz-animation-iteration-count
-moz-animation-name
-moz-animation-play-state
-moz-animation-timing-function
-moz-hyphens
-moz-orient

The following are just missing:

-moz-backface-visibility
-moz-perspective
-moz-perspective-origin
-moz-transform-style

The linking system in the style inspector should deal with these special cases as appropriate.

Seems like the SVG attribute pages have gone missing ... logged bug 697714

We're doing developer tool prioritization, filter on 'brontozaur'
to ignore the spam.

For these cases:
> The following properties would work if we strip the -moz- prefix:

Isn't the problem that there is no redirection between the -moz-animation-* variant and the animation-* ones? (Most of the other -moz-* properties are either proper articles or redirections to the unprefixed article)

If so, the easiest would be to add the missing redirections.

For the four missing properties, they are planned to be documented (unprefixed) with the rest of 3D transforms in the very near future (hopefully next week).

All of the -moz pages now redirect correctly.

The following articles lead to an appropriate page (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/SVG/Attribute/attribute-name):
stroke
stroke-dasharray
stroke-linecap
stroke-linejoin
stroke-opacity
stroke-width
text-anchor

Which means that we need at least empty pages for the following (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/SVG/Attribute/attribute-name):
color-interpolation
color-interpolation-filters
dominant-baseline
fill-opacity
fill-rule
flood-color
flood-opacity
lighting-color
marker-end
marker-mid
marker-start
shape-rendering
stop-color
stop-opacity
stroke-dashoffset
stroke-miterlimit

All fixed in MDN
