I assume, this refers to the CSS specification documentation bundled with
netbeans. This will be updated as part of NETBEANS-1454:

> Update CSS help
> ---------------
>
> Key: NETBEANS-2532
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NETBEANS-2532
> Project: NetBeans
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: web - CSS Editor
> Affects Versions: 11.0
> Reporter: Pete Whelpton
> Assignee: Matthias Bläsing
> Priority: Minor
> Labels: css, help, web
>
> CSS help (as displayed in Code Completion help window) is derived from two
> .zip files:
>
> css21-spec.zip
> css3-spec.zip
>
> which are downloaded from OSUOSL at build time. The .zips contain the html
> pages of the official CSS specs from the W3C website.
>
> Also, NB decides which zip to check by parsing the module URL in
> DefaultCssEditorModule.java. If the URL contains css3, then the
> css3-spec.zip folder is search for the appropriate HTML page, otherwise the
> css21-spec.zip is search.
>
> There are three problems:
>
> 1) Both of these .zip files contain really old versions of the specs!
> 2) W3C no longer put css3 in the URL of module web pages. E.g.
> [https://www.w3c.ord/TR/css3-values] is now
> [https://www.w3c.org/TR/css-values-3/]
> 3) This logic doesn't take into account new modules that have started back at
> Level 1 again, or new versions of existing modules that are now on Level 4
>
> My proposal would be to create one .zip file of the latest versions of the
> specs, update DefaultCssEditorModule.java with the current URLs for the specs
> on the w3c site, and then have just one help resolver that parsed that one
> .zip file.
>
> I'd be happy to do a lot of this work - although I don't have access to
> upload binaries to OSUOSL, so if somebody who does gets in touch we can get
> cracking....
