STEPS TO REPRODUCE Change the content of an element's attribute, thus causing style contexts to be reresolved and thus causing :before or :after 'content' to change. ACTUAL RESULTS The contents don't change. EXPECTED RESULTS Well duh. See attachement for a simple case. During loading, the attribute of one of the elements is changed. If the test passes, the generated content should be changed from 'FAILED' to 'PASSED'.

Interesting problem with an interesting workaround: if you attempt to change the after-content, it doesn't work. However, you can remove the after-content (with a before-content for instance) and once it is removed, you can add the after- content you wanted. A bit confusing eh? Look at the attached testcase and it will be all clear.

I forgot to add that: - the style is indeed re-resolved, it even applies to the after-content, the only problem is that the after-content itself doesn't change. - the after-content doesn't appear in when dumping the content in Viewer.

for me :before got added http://mozilla.linuxfaqs.de/ ..set style to "false frame" - the the red ">" before the links IS a :before, and gets added. The external links should get an :after{content:" (extern)";}, but THAT doesn't work
What I'm seeing is bug 126072, :before and :after psuedo classes are not rendered when using alternate style sheets.
I'm going to mark this bug as *depending on* bug 126072 because this bug may also have issues with AttributeAffectsStyle (and I've been wondering whether AttributeAffectsStyle should have worked a little more like HasStateDependentStyle...).
Depends on: 126072

Attached patch Proposed fix (deleted) — Splinter Review
Since the generated content is generated during frame construction, any change to generated content requires creating the new frames....
Comment on attachment 88554 [details] [diff] [review] Proposed fix r=dbaron. Seems like the right fix. Perhaps the "XXX" could go?
Attachment #88554 - Flags: review+
Yeah, true. I'll remove the XXX before checking in.
