             Bug #: 28979
           Summary: remove some CSS for abbr and acronym tags
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: 1.17
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: Unprioritized
         Component: User interface
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]
    Classification: Unclassified


The <abbr> and <acronym> tags were whitelisted with bug 671, but there are some
CSS rules for them since long, long times. They can be found in the first
versions of chick, monobook and are carried on to vector skin.

The lines I'm complaining about are 

abbr, acronym, .explain {
    color: black;
    background: none;
}

which are senseless from my perspective.

Often these tags are used in links, e.g. [[Normalnull|<abbr title="meter above
see level">NN</abbr>]]. But in here the color:black; makes the text
unrecognizable as a hyperlink (together with the senseful cursor:help; rule).

When these rules where meant to override some crazy browserdependent default
settings, they should be be changed to "inherit".
