This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
I propose to introduce a new property "content: frame(width, height)". What does this mean? This means that the element will be scaled like graphic element, the contents will be the same as that without the "content: frame(width, height)". It is very necessary CSS3 property. - Graphics elements (<img>, <canvas>, <video>) just change natural size. - Other elements have original size (like graphics elements), and scaling as graphical elements. - Size of elements cannot changed by inner content (text). Also i have alternative idea for new CSS property - "box-model: image(width, height)" and "box-model: auto", instead of "content". I came up with this idea for a reason, and in order to bring the behavior of graphic and conventional together.
I will be very happy if you perceive my offer.
Sorry, but this is the bug tracker for HTML. Your feature proposal is clearly intended for CSS. I suggest discussing it on the www-style mailing list.
