XUL uses CSS files linked to the page. Such files make full use of the
CSS2 selector syntax (thanks to Mozilla's CSS compliance). Figuring out
the style for a XUL element implies figuring out which CSS rules apply
to it. So, Eric van der Vlist is right; one has to interpret CSS2
selectors to apply style rules on generated XAML widjets when going from
XUL to XAML. One can just generate CSS classes when going the other way
around, that is from XAML to XUL, which is a lot easier.
On the XUL to XAML case, one would have to gather the CSS rules per
XULElement and convert them to XAML presentation info and hope
inheritance does not play such a big role, or that it does but it
somehow get's tranfered along as the hierachical structure is more or
less the same.
Lot's of mappings to do though, both between XUL+SVG to XAML and CSS to
XAML...
So, help anyone[1]?
