http://test.csswg.org/source/CSS2.1-test-suite/incoming/gabriele/basic/sec4/parsingerror5.html

Relevant code involved:
----------------------

<style type="text/css">
p {color: green}
p {font-family: "Andale Mono, Courier, monospace; color: red}

</style>

<p>This text should be green, not red.</p>



"User agents must close strings upon reaching the end of a line, but then drop the construct (declaration or rule) in which the string was found."

Internet Explorer 8, Firefox 3.0.11, Opera 9.64 and Safari 4 pass this test.

Dear user,

KHTML (and KJS) was a long time more or less unmaintained and got removed in KF6.

Please migrate to use a QWebEngine based HTML component.

We will do no further fixes or improvements to the KF5 branches of these components beside important security fixes.

For security issues, please see:

https://kde.org/info/security/

Sorry that we did not fix this issue during the life-time of KHTML.

Greetings
Christoph Cullmann
