RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 73152 28869
CSS serialization of string value should be quoted

Summary CSS serialization of string value should be quoted
Yuta Kitamura
Reported 2009-09-01 03:30:48 PDT
According to the CSS2.1 spec, when a string CSS value is serialized, it should be quoted by single quotation mark (') or double quotation mark ("). http://www.w3.org/TR/2009/CR-CSS2-20090423/syndata.html#value-def-string Currently WebKit just returns a bare word, which is an invalid CSS value that the WebKit's CSS parser does not parse. See attached test case for clarification.

We could preferably use double quotation mark instead of single quotation mark, as the CSSOM draft suggests. http://dev.w3.org/csswg/cssom/#parsing

The provided test case passes on firefox, and the request seems reasonable, so marking bug as new (confirmed).

Created attachment 144236 [details] Updated test case This obsoletes the previous test case. As per http://dev.w3.org/csswg/cssom/#serialize-a-string, only " may be used to wrap string values, not '.

I am unable to reproduce this bug in Safari 15.6 on macOS using "Updated Test Case" and it shows as "PASS" and Safari do pass "serialization" tests on WPT (but not all), I was not able to find this on WPT: https://wpt.fyi/results/css?label=master&label=experimental&aligned&q=serialization Please ignore my comment, if it is not fixed. Thanks!
