Good day,May I ask why is it so that a style simple as (e.g.): .element { border:1px solid #E6E6E6; } explodes in the firebug css style tab into: .element { border-bottom-color:#E6E6E6; border-bottom-style:solid; border-bottom-width:1px; border-left-color-ltr-source:physical; border-left-color-rtl-source:physical; border-left-color-value:#E6E6E6; border-left-style-ltr-source:physical; border-left-style-rtl-source:physical; border-left-style-value:solid; border-left-width-ltr-source:physical; border-left-width-rtl-source:physical; border-left-width-value:1px; border-right-color-ltr-source:physical; border-right-color-rtl-source:physical; border-right-color-value:#E6E6E6; border-right-style-ltr-source:physical; border-right-style-rtl-source:physical; border-right-style-value:solid; border-right-width-ltr-source:physical; border-right-width-rtl-source:physical; border-right-width-value:1px; border-top-color:#E6E6E6; border-top-style:solid; border-top-width:1px; }
border is a shorthand property for some other properties, which are in turn shorthand properties for other properties. At the bottom, you get the above real properties (although I don't recognized the ones with value physical, but I'm certainly not a CSS expert). If Firebug didn't expand the shorthand properties, there'd be no way to modify the individual properties, and I think it's a useful indicator of what you're really doing with the border property.
