Bug 96844 – Sign in front of keyframe selector causes the subsequent ruleset to be ignored

• Status: RESOLVED
• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: CSS

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

A keyframes rule like:

@-webkit-keyframes fade {
    -10% { background-color: blue; }
    100% { background-color: green; }
}

will cause stylesheet parsing to abort.

I don't understand why, since the 'key' production is using PERCENTAGE, which is a <number>, which should accept signs.

I think this is a problem in the lexer code.

Testcase

[Simon Fraser (smfr)]

Looks like dashes are only handled in NthChildMode. Maybe we need a mode for keyframe selectors.

[Takashi Sakamoto]

According to the spec: http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-animations/#keyframes,
"If a keyframe selector specifies negative percentage values or values higher than 100%, then the keyframe will be ignored."

So I think, the attached TestCase does not work.

Best regards,
Takashi Sakamoto

That's not the point. A minus sign in front of the keyframe selector causes the entire rest of the stylesheet to be ignored. That's obviously wrong.

Better test case.

This test case shows that it is the next (ruleset) statement that is being skipped, and not the entire remaining stylesheet.

I don't think we should ignore the block at the parsing level. This is totally valid CSS; we just need to handle keyframes outside of 0-100% in the code.
