I'm trying the specify outline properties for a link. The css I'm using is:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. outline: invert dotted thin;
However the error console says:
Expected colour but fouud 'invert'. Error in parsing value for 'outline'. Declaration dropped.I can't see the problem anywhere. Can someone point me to what is wrong.

What is giving you this error? Certainly not the validator.

The Firefox Error Console gives me this as a warning.

Invert is one of the few things Firefox does not support.

I'm pretty sure FF does support it but I'll check.

EDIT: By golly, you're right. I don't have time to go through the relevant bug about this (closed as WONTFIX). There seems to be an agreement that FF handles it according to spec but that invert only works in IE8 and Opera. Confused but didn't have time to get into it.

Firefox supports outline just not the keyword invert for the color property. When CSS 2.1 specification came out browsers were no longer required to support the keyword invert. Firefox has chosen to not support it.

Okay. Thanks. They should make a note of that on W3Schools since they usually say if things are supported by IE, Firefox, Safari, Opera and Google Chrome so they should have made a mention that Firefox didn't support invert.

I'll take it out. I can live without it. Is there an alternative?
