This might be very easy to fix.  I'm not sure how easy it is in our CSS system to have CSS properties which only explicitly inherit.

I have what should be a fix in my local tree, but something's not quite right.  Still investigating.
Comment 2 Eric Seidel (no email) 2007-02-02 07:46:21 PST
Actually, I believe the test is bogus.

http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20061213/htmlEmbedHarness/full-pservers-grad-18-b.html

the test reads:

<g stop-color='red'>
   <linearGradient>
      <stop stop-color='inherit'>

However, stop-color does not inherit.  So <linearGradient> ends up with the default stop color (black) which is what the <stop> element then inherits from.  the CSS inherit keyword does not cause the style resolve to jump to the grandparent, especially since linearGradient is a styled element...

This is just a bogus test.  Oliver or mjs (or whoever has contact with the SVG working group) should complain to them.

ed_work in #svg agrees with our interpretation.  We expect the test case will be changed to correct this error in the next release.

As Eric said, probably wrong test, closing for now.
