    Maybe it was intended to have both functions (i.e. serve as an anchor to either end —source or destination— of a link)? And the distinction would then be based on whether you slap a 
    href
    or a 
    name
    in it?
  • t
    aha! I'm not entirely bonkers.
  • t
    > NAME > gives the name of the anchor, and makes it available as a head of a hyperlink.
  • t
    > hyperlink > a relationship between two anchors, called the head and the tail. The link goes from the tail to the head. The head and tail are also known as destination and source, respectively.
  • s
    Ah, indeed from the glossary at https://www.w3.org/MarkUp/html-spec/html-spec_2.html#GLOSS2: > anchor = one of two ends of a hyperlink
  • t
    So yeah, my terms may be a bit outdated here.
  • m
    would 
    hidden
    be ok here?
  • m
    btw, love the discussion in here, really nice to have people who give a shit and know what they are talking about, since the first set includes me but the second set does not.
  • g
    should these be renamed?
  • m
    i like the shorter
  • m
    versions
  • m
    I don't really like the colon syntax
  • g
    justify yourself
  • m
    for these I'd prefer:
    Copy code
    justify-start
...
align-start
...
self-align-start
...
flex-0
...
reset (or initial)
    etc
  • m
    this is purely aesthetic
  • m
    and I can be talked out of it, for sure
  • g
    the colon one is easier to remember and understand
  • g
    the syntax is the same as the equivalent css
  • g
    and you can know at a glance that it's not doing extra stuff
  • g
    Copy code
    html
<div class="box flex-grow:2">
  • g
    also the reset is useless
  • g
    it makes the font revert to the browser default
  • m
    i still like the shorter versions for the more common stuff
  • b
    On the homepage, 
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="https://the.missing.style">
    appears to be missing the self-closing 
    /
    - is that intentional?
  • g
    yes
  • g
    the self-closing / is ignored
  • b
    I assumed as much, throwing fists at the establishment in the second sentence lol
  • s
    All of these seem pretty clear and intuitive to me (except 
    .contents
    ). I appreciate the consistency and clarity that the spelled-out name would provide, but why not have both options available? The short names are pretty useful for such common styles, IMHO.
  • p
    are the ARIA-based tabs working? my own attempts and the demo page don't switch the tabs
  • g
    You're supposed to bring your own JavaScript
