Bug 125859 – Implement token element <ms>

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: WONTFIX
• Component: MathML

[Frédéric Wang (:fredw)]

The <ms> token element is not implemented. If we ignore the mstyle craziness (like Gecko does), this could be done with pure CSS:

ms:before, ms:after {
  content: "\0022"
}
ms[lquote]:before {
  content: attr(lquote)
}
ms[rquote]:after {
  content: attr(rquote)
}

Does not seem to work...

lquote/rquote have been removed from MathML Core: 

https://w3c.github.io/mathml-core/#string-literal-ms

So I guess we don't need to implement anything.

Leaving this open for now, to check if we pass WPT tests.

We are passing this WPT:

https://wpt.fyi/results/mathml/presentation-markup/tokens/ms-001.html?label=master&label=experimental&aligned&q=ms

and

https://wpt.fyi/results/mathml/crashtests/multicol-inside-ms.html?label=master&label=experimental&aligned&q=ms

It seems nothing much to do here.

OK let's close this then.
