Differences between JavaFX CSS and css w3c standard

This is a discussion topic that comes to mind after reading the comments in this thread Re: FXML, css and - fx-are-family

Feel free to comment or share your ideas on the subject.

Note that these comments relate to the meaning of assignment of names and semantics of the css tags and not the syntax and parsing of css (such as the w3c css and css javaFX seem to be equivalent with respect to later).

You know, sometimes I find refreshing absence of JavaFX features in css. It is nice to have, well, almost everything, the JavaFX CSS documented on one page. I think that if you were to do the same for the w3c css then it would end up with a much bigger, more difficult to understand the document and even what should be the content of this document would probably quite controversial, in the same kind of way that ends up being the HTML5 specification. Microsoft has helped more than 7,000 w3c tests just to cover only a subset of css rules that are available in browsers today. The webkit project lists open CSS nearly a thousand bugs: https://bugs.webkit.org/buglist.cgi?product=WebKit & component = CSS & resolution =-. If the implementation even partial w3c CSS support is a complex project.

When I started using JavaFX CSS I found differences in w3c CSS quite shocking, and it was difficult to account for their. Now that I'm used to JavaFX CSS, I don't have as much of a problem. The difference in names and semantics will be an obstacle to working on JavaFX developers who are familiar with w3c CSS - but the designers quickly will also discover that FXML is not HTML and Java isn't JavaScript and JavaFX deployment is not HTML deployment. Then, perhaps, in the bigger picture, it is not as big a deal that he would appear. Yet, one cannot think that any obstacle to the people easily pick up and adopting JavaFX makes the technology a disservice.

There are other benefits that the JavaFX CSS in its own space of names to w3c css, in what she can evolve separately, it shouldn't be exactly the same because it has a different name, it should not implement fully w3c css as browsers do so because it is clearly something different by name etc. There is even precedent for it in the use of mozilla to moz - CSS and css properties http://css-infos.net/properties/webkit - web webkit prefixes as not in standard as many people have suggested. JavaFX CSS supports a JavaFX rendering engine and not an HTML rendering engine. It is quite remarkable that Oracle has been able to build and make available a model CSS for JavaFX which feels as familiar as to the w3c css, w3c css is very strongly targeted towards style a game completely different technology (HTML markup document object model and).

It would be useful to have a tool which translates as w3c css to the approximations of JavaFX css and vice versa, or the ability for JavaFX to have a mode (perhaps a Boolean value when a style sheet is loaded) to perform an automatic alias or the mapping of the w3c css for javafx (at least for the subset of w3c css that would make sense to automatically translate for JavaFX css). I haven't checked the jira JavaFX in detail, then maybe a request for support already exists - it's perhaps in the private http://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-9272 jira.

The JavaFX css model is really powerful and I found really useful some of the additions that it adds above the css 2.1 Basic found regularly in browsers. With the next CSS Java model object http://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-17293, you will also better get access by Java programming.

Then, good work on the construction and implementation of this complex device...

Thanks for the comments. The gap between JavaFX CSS and CSS from W3C will be an evolutionary process. It would be nice to use the stylesheet of a standard basis, but there is not always a mapping from 1-1 to JavaFX. But for properties that can be mapped, it is something that should be supported. For example, we should be able to deal with 'police' or '- fx - police '.

I made public http://javafx-jira.kenai.com/browse/RT-9272.

  • Difference between Pseudo-classes and pseudo-element

    Hello

    Does anyone know the real difference between Pseudo-classes and pseudo-element?

    The two are very different, but I can't yet tell them apart.

    And I read on some website that there is selection controls, selector of Pseudo-classes and pseudo-element. For good to mix people, understand me!


    The pseudo-element only I use are a: link, a: visited, a: hover. And I were Pseudo-classes appeal!


    Can someone can clarify for me please?


    Thank you!

    Pseudo-elements are so-called because they are not real HTML elements - for example there is no HTML didn't call first line tag, but using CSS you can apply a style to the first line of a paragraph, for example using: first-line. A pseudo-class is called a class because it does not select a property of an HTML tag (e.g. a: hover, targets of the HTML tag), but because the hover is not a class attribute, the designer has added to the markup, it is called 'Nick'). Using double colon for Pseudo-elements is the new syntax (standard CSS3) and is not always understood by all browsers yet, sometimes, you need to use a single colon.  The double colon comes to more easily differentiate Pseudo-elements (:) and Pseudo-classes (:).)

  • What is the difference between a model and an external style sheet?

    I try to understand what is the difference between a model and an external style? I finished doing my model and I know that want to base each page on that. Isn't it the same as the external style sheet?

    Since I've already gone ahead and created a model with a ton of styles, I should remove the styles from the model and recreate them so that they exist in an external style sheet?

    I recommend that, Yes.  This way if you want to add/remove/edit one of your CSS, you only download this single file, not all the files in the site.

  • What is the difference between. MHT and. HTM?

    Original title: is anyone know about MHT files?

    What is the difference between. MHT and. HTM?

    Hi Sheryl,

    Welcome to the Windows 7 community!

    I understand that you would like to know the difference between file MHT and HTM file. I'm happy to help you.

    MHTML, short for MIME HTML, is a format to archive web page used to combine resources that are usually represented by external links (such as images, Flash animations, audio files, Java applets) as well as the HTML code in a single file. The content of an MHTML file is encoded as if it were an email message to HTML, using the MIME type multipart/related. The first part of the file is normally encoded HTML; subsequent parts are additional resources identified by their URL original and encoded in base64. This format is sometimes referred to as MHT, after the suffix .mht given to these files by default when created by Microsoft Word, Internet Explorer or Opera. MHTML is a proposed standard, distributed in an edition revised in 1999 as RFC 2557.

    HTML Web page that is used by Web browsers; contains the code markup that is stored in a plain text format; used to display and format the text and images in a Web browser.

    HTM files serve the same exact than purpose. HTML files. The extension ".htm" appeared with the use of the Web Microsoft, such as FrontPage, SharePoint Designer and Expression Web development software.

    HTM files are much less common than HTML files.

  • Difference between "Home network" and "Business Network" WITHOUT a domain name in Windows 7?

    I'm paranoid and always try to choose security options more high.  In preparation for the implementation of a small Windows 7 network behind a NAT router wireless and wired, I'm working through "Microsoft Windows 7 in depth" by Cowart and Knittel (what, rights of copyright 2010).  I fell right on the following steps (mentioned verbatim in p. 446-447), that I don't understand.  (The steps are clear enough but the real difference between the first two choices is not.) :

    «.. . Click on change settings, click Network ID...  You are prompted to select the option that best describes your computer:

    • This computer belongs to a network of business; I use it to connect to other computers at work.
    • This computer is a computer at home; It is not part of a corporate network.

    «That one you choose made a significant difference...»  If you choose the option "Business Network", Windows configures your computer for a better level of security it will be for domestic use [my underlining].  The wizard then asks you choose one of the following responses:

    • My company uses a network with a domain name
    • My company uses a network without a domain name

    «.. . If you build your own network as described in this chapter, select a field, then click Next.  The last question asks a name for the network working group.  Leaving the WORKING group by default in place".

    It seems that you can set up a "Business Network" 'without a domain' that outward behaves as a similar "home network".  If Yes, what is this 'higher standard of security' that will result? -JCW2

    There is only one difference between home network and profiles work that appears when you sign in for the 1st time.

    A profile of home network allows to create or join a homegroup, on a job profile that you can not. So what it means actually using the term "business" is false and the differences in security are limited.

    One of the limitations of a workgroup can access one action requires the credentials of all users to set up on the host pc, setting up a homegroup automatically creates a common user between computers that could be considered a low security setting...

  • What is the difference between associative arrays and nested tables?

    Hello
    What is the difference between associative arrays and nested tables?

    nested tables cannot be indexed by other than pls_integer and unlike nested tables table associative cananot be declared at the schema level.

    is there any other difference set apart from the diff above 2?

    What is the difference between associative arrays and nested tables?

    Name-value pairs (associative) against a list of values (table standard/nested table).

    nested tables cannot be indexed by other than pls_integer

    They are not "indexed" the way in which an associative array is indexed. A standard table is referenced by the position of the cell in the table. This position is essentially the offset of the memory of the cell from the start address of the table.

    Can not solve a cell in an associative array directly via a memory offset index. You place a cell reference value it by his 'name' (a search in the linked list/hash table).

    The following example shows the difference between the pairs of name / value and a list of core values.

  • What is the difference between Photoshop CS5 and Photoshop CS5 Extended?

    Hey,.

    What is the difference between Photoshop CS5 and Photoshop CS5 Extended?

    Also, why are there no other product from Adobe that don't are not 'extended', why just Photoshop?

    Thank you

    Hatton

    It's all about marketing and money.  You can be extended or not, depending on what are the features that you need.  I personally don't have extended, just Standard and it's quite capable in itself that I need.  The two editions have 32 and 64 bit variants (if you have a 64 bit OS).

    Adobe says only Extended offers "...". breakthrough tools for creating and editing 3D content and lively.

    This page, in a few more clicks, will tell you more on the differences:

    http://www.Adobe.com/products/Photoshop/compare/

    A good approach, if you have the monitor space, is to put the who's new pages for Standard and Extended place side by side in two browser windows and search for differences.

  • Difference between the G20 and G25 models

    Hi people!

    I searched your laptop and I was amazed by the Qosmio.
    When I was going to order it, I noticed that there are many models of the G20 with different specifications. Also, I found G25 on internet research and found no difference between the G25 and G20 except receiver TV G25 is NTSC and G20 was released on March and G25 was in June. Instead, they have the same specifications for the hard drive.

    I live in the Portugal and the model Qosmio I can find that this is the G20-118. I was looking for the model that has 2 x 100 GB SATA HD, but cannot not thought about it.

    Internet research I found Qosmio G20-111 which has 2 x 100 GB SATA HD, but on the web page mentioned that it was a Pentium III processor (ridiculous, isn't?). I was looking for more reliable information.

    Already searched for toshiba pages and found no specifications for all models I found 490LS on the research on the web as the G20 - 102, 105, 106, 108, 109, 111, 118, 123,...

    Can someone help me with this? Are there any reliable web page where I can see the differences between the models? is there a .pdf or anyone who can please give me some advice?

    Money is not a problem at this time to acquire the laptop, I'm looking for only the laptop performance more!

    Best regards
