This looks the same as bug #335744 "Kate/KWrite CSS highlighting problems with media queries". It is fixed in KDE Applications >=4.14.0. The last few comments of that bug report explain how you can get the fix in your current installation. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 335744 *** |
This CSS: @media (max-width: 1150px) { } Is valid according to The W3C CSS Validation Service. However, kate incorrectly marks it - and the entire rest of the file after it - as containing an error. This appears to happen, because kate is not capable of handling brackets with spaces in them. For instance, this is not detected as an error: (max-width:1150px) - note that the space has been removed. To fix: Kate needs to handle whitespace appropriately. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. One a new document, and set the syntax highlighting to treat it as CSS 2. Enter the a line containing brackets with a space, for instance: @media (max-width: 1150px) { Actual Results: Everything from the closing bracket to the end of the file is now highlighted as as error. Expected Results: It should have accepted it as valid css. I am using the most recent version of kate available via apt. kate -v reports this: Qt: 4.8.6 KDE Development Platform: 4.13.3 Kate: 3.13.3
