Description Timothy Hatcher 2005-10-23 08:46:17 PDT
bug 3442 laid the framework for this, but didn't finish these 2 pseudo-selectors.

Here are the 2 test cases:

Joost also just filed a bug asking for the nth- selectors as well.

patch to *remove* support for these properties

Until such time as a correct implementation can be developed, I believe it would be better to not support these at all rather than to support them incorrectly. The current behaviour of :last-child behaving like a base element selector, and :only-child behaving like :first-child is highly detrimental.
Comment 7 Maciej Stachowiak 2007-02-07 08:05:02 PST
This might not be a bad idea, though I think hyatt would be the best judge.
Comment 8 Gabe da Silveira 2007-02-07 08:13:15 PST
I'll put in my vote for that idea as well since this bug bit me in the ass hard a few months ago.

Yeah, I agree with removing support for these.

You haven't adequately removed them unless the rules are rejected.  You need to go further and actually yank the names from the list of pseudo types completely.

For  example:

:last-child, div { color: red }

should be rejected since last-child is unrecognized.

Also,

:not(:last-child)

needs to also be rejected.  With your patch :last-child just always returns a failed match, which will cause :not(:last-child) to always match.

Patch looks good.  Since the tests that are being landed are expected failures, I'd prefer they go under css3/expected_failures/ (as we did with table tests that have failing results), so that there's no confusion about the fact that we're deliberately checking in failing test cases.

I'll r+ once the tests are moved.

(Also changelog typo, I assume you meant "erroneously")

Marking obsolete to get it out of the commit queue.

Apparently being obsolete doesn't matter to the commit queue... Removing review flag to make it go away.

Acid3, test0 depends on dynamic :last-child support.
Comment 19 Eric Seidel (no email) 2008-01-01 22:22:32 PST
:last-of-type causes test 39 to fail as well.

      selectorTest(function (doc, add, expect) {
        builder(doc);
        var match = add(":last-of-type");
        var values = [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1];
        for (var i = 0; i < elements.length; i += 1)
          expect(elements[i], values[i] ? match : 0, "part 2:" + i);
      });

i = 7 when we fail.

Returning this to unassigned as it's seen no activity from the assignee in 11 months.
