[Bug 659478] Re: Firefox javascript cssText selector list gets reordered

Tue Oct 12 20:24:39 UTC 2010

If someone could tell me how to format the description... Meanwhile you
can read this:

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: firefox

  I was trying to do a little javascript script to modify CSS, when I
  bumped into this little problem/bug:

      document.styleSheets[i].cssRules[j].cssText

  The above attribute seems to give reordered selector list if the
  selectors are not delimetered with whitespaces.

+ </br>

  Example 1 (selectors delimetered with whitespaces):

  In CSS file:                  .someClass #someID { color:red; }

  Above code outputs:   .someClass #someID { color:red; }

  Example 2 (no whitespaces):

  In CSS file:                  .someClass#someID { color:red; }

  Above code outputs:   #someID.someClass { color:red; }

  In Example 2 the someClass and the someID have changed order. This probably should not happen.
  Here is a another example to give some sense of pattern:

  Example 3:

  In CSS file:
  .class1:hover.class2#id1#id2:hover.class3#id3 { color:red; }

  Above code outputs:   #id1#id2#id3.class1.class2.class3:hover:hover {
  color:red; }

  As can be seen, the hover pseudo classes are completely borked. So I
  guess this is a bug.
