Yeah, I hadn't looked at these CSS3 additions before, but it seems crazy that they don't follow the pattern established by all the other ones already defined. The shorthand properties drive me crazy anyway because there's no way to use them without some sort of ad-hoc parsing. Even *that* parsing is complicated here by the ability for the color to be either the first or last argument -- I assume it can be a color name, rgb, rgba, or hex. I would much prefer to have text- shadow-radius etc., then we could blissfully ignore the inconsistent shorthand property. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jQuery Development" group.
