This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Given the following selector rule (the overall style sheet is using CSS2.1, but this rule is valid CSS2.0)... ul#navigation > li { display: list-item !important; list-style-type: inherit; } ...the CSS validator returns the following error: "Invalid number : list-style-type inherit is not a list- style-type value : inherit ". It also provides a link to the CSS 2(.0) specification (http://www.w3.org/ TR/REC-CSS2/generate.html#propdef-list-style-type) for the list-style-type property... but the CSS 2 spec specifically allows the "inherit" value! This bug was first reported (by myself) on the www-validator-css@w3.org mailing list, and I was instructed to report it here. Hope this helps!
