WebKit is following the spec here. I am just curious about why is 'ruby > rp { display: none;}' better than 'rp { display: none;}'. 61190 2 ian 2011-12-07 23:51:05 +0000 I didn't want people abusing <rp> to hide stuff. 61342 3 ian 2011-12-09 22:22:29 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
