Mostly excellent. There is one question about why you have converted some values from hex to `rgba` values, not to CSS custom properties. src/jdk.javadoc/share/classes/jdk/javadoc/internal/doclets/formats/html/markup/Head.java line 333: > 331: // The order of the addStylesheet(...) calls is important > 332: addStylesheet(head, > DocPaths.SCRIPT_DIR.resolve(DocPaths.JQUERY_UI_CSS)); > 333: addStylesheet(head, DocPaths.JQUERY_OVERRIDES_CSS); The edit as-is is OK, but the general code here makes me wonder if this class belongs in the `markup` package. src/jdk.javadoc/share/classes/jdk/javadoc/internal/doclets/toolkit/resources/stylesheet.css line 89: > 87: } > 88: h1 { > 89: font-size:1.428em; I appreciate these numbers give per-pixel consistency with before, but 3 decimal places seems a bit extreme! src/jdk.javadoc/share/classes/jdk/javadoc/internal/doclets/toolkit/resources/stylesheet.css line 959: > 957: } > 958: div.page-search-info button#page-search-copy:hover { > 959: background-color: rgba(128, 128, 160, 0.2); why have the old hex values just been converted to `rgba` values, and not CSS custom properties? ------------- PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/9839
