dotted border: Chrome (Skia) rendering
CSS spec says that "dotted" should be "a series of round dots", so Firefox is more accurate in that regard: <http://www.w3.org/TR/css3-background/#the-border-style> It also says "Implementations are encouraged to choose a spacing that makes the corners symmetrical", so Chrome/Safari are better there. *** Bug 44611 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Is there any hope for this bug being fixed? Dotted line means round "dots". It's not a dashed line as rendered in WebKit. Martin is taking care of this on Qt port, a patch is coming soon :) I'm interested in fixing this. And in adding a value to border (and everywhere) to accept short dashes as well, so authors have the option of round dots or tiny squares. That would be useful. |
