Ignore properties starting with * about php-css-parser HOT 2 CLOSED

Thanks for your feedback.

As you can see in the readme, “Adopt lenient parsing rules” is on the to-do list. Currently, however, the CSS Parser only parses standard-compliant CSS.

You’re welcome to add a patch, though. I think a reasonable strategy could be to catch exceptions in the parser’s parseRule method and advance the parser to after the next line break or semicolon, or before the next closing curly bracket (whichever comes first) and return null. We’d then have to change every consumer of parseRule (I think parseRuleSet is the only one) to not fail when parseRule returns null.

We could add a safe mode to ignore non-compliant css instead of throwing exception. These way to work are present in most parsers I know.

Ultimately, avoid to end with parsing code for compliant rules mixed up with specific fix. Although, I really think that this is the only one non-compliant approach that should really be considered as it is present in nearly every css file.

I will consider your idea, and will give you feedback in a few, I'll be quite busy this weekend.
