Hi, I was recently taking a CSS online exam, and I ran into a question I have never encountered before.
The multiple choice question question basically asked, "If a CSS rule is too long on a single line, what character do you use to tell the style sheet processors that the rule is continued on the next line?" The possible answers were -, >, \, /, \\. I couldn't find anything the explicitly answer this question in the W3C CSS spec, but I am wondering if the question was not quite detailed enough. I found these two links, which makes me think the answer is backslash (\), used on long strings in CSS rules. http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#characters http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS21/syndata.html#strings Does this agree with any of your experiences? Originally, I kept thinking the question was about a series of long CSS rules on one line (i.e. display: inline; padding-top: 2px;), but a semicolon would work there, and it was not one of the answer choices. Thanks, Stephen ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [[email protected]] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
