I'm immensely confused by this: `It's totally ok to write class="75%" if you define it as .\35 0\%{} in CSS.` How is this:
.\35 0\%{}
turned into "75%"? It looks more like it would turn into "50%". Why is there a space after the 5 (wouldn't that mean you're finished talking about the class and have moved on to explaining a descendent element?) and what does \3 mean?
- gvb 9y agoThis explains CSS escaping pretty well: https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/css-escapes https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/css-escapes \37 is the escaped hexadecimal number 0x37 == the ASCII character '7' The whitespace after the escaped character is "eaten" (the whitespace indicates the end of the escape sequence) 0 is '0' \% is '%' (update: fixed \37 == '7')
