Description
During removal of support for IE hacks (#995), it was found that
parseIdentifier()treats the first character differently to subsequent characters - it does not attempt to escape the first character;- it escapes characters like
TABorNULwith the literal character, so the result is, e.g., a\followed by an actualTAB, rather than\tor\9.
Perhaps these characters should not be allowed in identifiers anyway. Would need to check the spec, but I think the idea of the IE hacks was for IE-specific rules, so I expect these characters should be disallowed (as well as other control characters).
This was the test CSS:
p {
padding-right: .75rem \9;
background-image: none \9;
color:red\9\0;
background-color:red \9 \0;
background-color:red \9 \0 !important;
content: "red \9\0";
content: "red\0abc";
}
