CSS validation fail
Posted: 17 Nov 2011, 15:17
So this is kind of driving me crazy, cause I can not get the prettyPhoto.css to validate. 2 errors found:
1. Instance use of font-color, should be changed to color (easy)
2. Use of rgba(....) in a border. This I don't understand why it fails. I have checked with http://www.css3.info/preview/rgba/ and it should validate, but it doesn't. This keeps getting up:
If I read the definition correctly, it only sets the border as transparent / opaque, which is not really needed for my site, cause I doubt anyone will notice a 1px wide border is opaque or not... However, it should validate, so it annoys me, maybe it isn't allowed to use within border?
And a more random note, the CSS file, is there any special encoding to it? Tried opening it as UTF8, and it looked really messy.

However, if I remove the rgba(...) it validates perfectly. Now, I did quick source search on a post using an pp attachment, and I could not find pp_gallery, nor a ul inside the "box". I also tried validating with direct input, inserting spacings etc.1 .pp_gallery ul a Value Error : border Too many values or values are not recognized : 1px rgba(0,0,0,0.5 ) solid
