CSS2.1 Issues

• Resolved: Change the 3rd bullet point of margin collapsing (CSS 2.1 section 8.3.1): Bottom margin of last inflow child and the bottom margin of parent, no longer collapse if the parent has non-zero min-height and the bottom margin of the last inflow child collapses with the top margin of the parent. Exact changes pending more testing.
• Resolved: Backport @charset parsing rules from CSS3 to CSS2.1. dbaron to propose errata; zcorpan to update tests.

Selectors

• Florian brought back some documented need for a selector that propagates input states to the corresponding label.
  • Resolved: Florian to work on a proposal for a selector that propagates input states to the corresponding label and/or other associated elements.
• TabAtkins brought back his previous idea of allowing :has() with some previous-child and -parent combinators in fast profile. There were still a lot of concerns about the performance implications. dbaron will test to see what the effects would be so that a more informed decision can be made.
• fantasai brought her proposal to add ::marker to pseudo-elements spec, takes properties from color module and fonts module (color, font-*, and opacity)
  • Resolved: Add ::marker with font properties and color to pseudo-elements spec (and still plan to do more later in the lists spec).

Text Level 4

• fantasai and astearns brought the CSS Text Level 4 document that they’d created to the group.
• For their text-wrap: balance proposal, there was some concern about the inheritance behavior. Instead, they will work on creating wrap-inside, wrap-before, and wrap-after properties.
• The white-space properties were well received, though it was thought that discard would be a better word than consume.
• Resolved: Make css-text-4 an editor’s draft (currently a different spec)
• Resolved: fantasai and astearns to edit
