  7. # [02:47] <jdaggett> dbaron: ping
  8. # [02:49] <dbaron> jdaggett, pong
  9. # [02:49] <jdaggett> hey
  10. # [02:49] <jdaggett> i'm wondering about the format of strings in situations like
  11. # [02:49] <jdaggett> src: local(Arial)
  12. # [02:50] <jdaggett> or
  13. # [02:50] <jdaggett> src: url(doc.svg#font) format(svg)
  14. # [02:50] <jdaggett> do we need wording in the spec
  15. # [02:50] <jdaggett> to say that quotes are optional/allowed?
  16. # [02:51] <dbaron> probably
  17. # [02:51] <dbaron> I think that wording already exists for url()
  18. # [02:51] <jdaggett> yeah, i saw that in the syntax module
  19. # [02:51] <dbaron> http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#uri
  20. # [02:51] <jdaggett> right
  21. # [02:51] <jdaggett> so erik with the svg wg
  22. # [02:52] <jdaggett> posted a msg to the css wg about this
  23. # [02:52] <jdaggett> not quite sure how to respond
  24. # [02:52] <jdaggett> open a new issue in tracker?
  25. # [02:52] <dbaron> I have no idea what the current issue tracking mechanism is for different specs...
  26. # [02:53] <dbaron> The message wasn't in the last week, was it?
  27. # [02:53] <dbaron> because I don't see one in my vacation mail pile?
  28. # [02:53] <jdaggett> week before
  29. # [02:53] <jdaggett> search archives for erik dahlstrom
  30. # [02:55] <dbaron> yeah
  31. # [02:55] <dbaron> the string-optional thing really requires its own token in the tokenization
  32. # [02:55] <dbaron> which is a bit of a pain
  33. # [02:55] <dbaron> well, it does if the contents can be more than what's allowed by keyword
  34. # [02:56] <jdaggett> well, the contents of format() are known
  35. # [02:56] <dbaron> also need to be careful with format(svg) == format( svg ) == format("svg") != format(" svg "), assuming that's the behavior we want
  36. # [02:57] <jdaggett> mmm, bloody edge cases...
  37. # [02:57] <dbaron> [not the last item] == format( "svg" )
  38. # [02:57] <dbaron> I *think* that's the behavior for url(), although I'm not actually sure...
  39. # [02:57] <jdaggett> the contents of local() can be anything though...
  40. # [03:01] <fantasai> dbaron: issue tracking for specs is whatever the spec editors are using
  41. # [03:02] <fantasai> dbaron: I think the expectation is that everything will move to tracker
  42. # [03:04] <fantasai> dbaron: but I've decided to keep using the wiki for CSS2.1 because it's much easier for me to track Bert's edits that way
  43. # [03:04] <fantasai> Tracker doesn't have enough statuses
  44. # [03:06] <jdaggett> fantasai: so i'd like to answer erik's webfonts src syntax question
  45. # [03:06] <jdaggett> http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2008Jun/0199.html
  46. # [03:06] <jdaggett> but i think this should be discussed in the wg
  47. # [03:06] <jdaggett> before i respond
  48. # [03:06] <fantasai> ok
  49. # [03:06] <fantasai> email plinss
  50. # [03:06] <jdaggett> since the spec is under revision
  51. # [03:07] <jdaggett> ok
  52. # [03:07] <fantasai> he can add it to the agenda
  53. # [03:07] <fantasai> you can submit the issue to the tracker at http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/Tracker/
  54. # [03:08] <fantasai> you should include all revelant information
  55. # [03:08] <fantasai> such as whether format()'s arguments are a fixed set
  56. # [03:08] <fantasai> and what other functional items might have the same problem
  57. # [03:09] <jdaggett> yeah, i think the same issue exists for local()
  58. # [03:09] * fantasai notes that the 2.0 spec says it must be quoted
  59. # [03:10] <jdaggett> which seems a tad inconsistent
  60. # [03:10] <jdaggett> given that url's don't need to be
  61. # [03:10] <fantasai> urls, as dbaron noted, have special wording
  62. # [03:11] <fantasai> that explains in what cases they don't need to be and how they're parsed when they aren't quoted
  63. # [03:11] <fantasai> even so
  64. # [03:11] <fantasai> implementations don't implement it right
  65. # [03:11] <fantasai> there are major problems with url() parsing without qhotes
  66. # [03:11] <jdaggett> really?
  67. # [03:12] <jdaggett> because of parens in the url?
  68. # [03:12] <fantasai> I haven't tested parens
  69. # [03:12] <fantasai> but behavior with commas is inconsistent
  70. # [03:12] <fantasai> that's supposed to be invalid, per spec
  71. # [03:13] <jdaggett> looking at issue tracker
  72. # [03:13] <jdaggett> can you add "CSS3 Fonts" to the list of products?
  73. # [03:13] <fantasai> you can do it yourself, too :) but done.
  74. # [03:13] <jdaggett> looks like i can do it...
  75. # [03:14] <jdaggett> oh, thanks!

  91. # [09:49] * fantasai is monitoring those changes as they come in, and had to ask for some to be reworked a bit
