Summary:	CSS: Innermost style should take precedence

Description Sridhar Gurivireddy 2007-05-22 11:07:09 PDT

When CSS style is applied on elements, the style on innermost element should take precedence over the style on outer elements

e.g
<div style="xxx">
 <h1 style="yyy"> </h1>
</div>

If style YYY conflicts with XXX, YYY should take precedence, like in IE and firefox

Thanks for the bug report, Sridhar!  Could you give a specific example where this happens and does not work?

Have you tried a WebKit nightly build?  http://nightly.webkit.org/

This bug is invalid.  The outer float incorrectly does not shrink to fit its contents in Firefox 2 and WinIE.  This bug has since been fixed in Firefox 3 (if you download Gran Paradiso Alpha 4 you can see that Firefox 3 behaves like Safari now).
