Hi Team, While going through Blink's commit, I came across test case where all browsers differ from each other (Chrome Canary 112, Firefox Nightly 111 and Safari Technology Preview 162): Test Case -
https://jsfiddle.net/85dc79ks/show
(Same as URL field) Blink Commit -
https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/blink/+/278a1f2cc8465a1a57307ad95d02f124bac4bde1
WebKit Source -
https://searchfox.org/wubkat/source/Source/WebCore/rendering/updating/RenderTreeBuilderFirstLetter.cpp#105
etc. I just wanted to get input on which browser is right and also track it here, if it is genuine bug. Thanks!

Looking at the test above, everything is green on Safari. <div>Test</div> <div> Test </div> <div>(T)est</div> <div> (T)est</div> <div>“T”est</div> <div>&Test</div> <div> &Test</div> <div>T&S<div> <div>T & S<div> <div>T & S<div> <div>« S »</div> <div>« S » </div> <div>• </div> <div> • </div> with: Test passes if all the T are green, as well as punctuation elements when they are adjacent to a letter (without spaces) Ahmad, Thanks. Probably it would be interesting to cross-check with tests in

This seems relevant - first-letter-punctuation-dynamic.html

The rules are pretty complex.

Indeed
https://wpt.fyi/results/css/css-pseudo/first-letter-punctuation-dynamic.html?label=master&label=experimental&aligned&view=subtest&q=first-letter
The space here seems to be ignored in WebKit.

I tried it in thiS PR -
https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/pull/10685
and it seems that there are some genuine failure with this patch. I tried to merge follow-up patch partially but it seems, it needs more than two patches to make it work in WebKit. I am still exploring it locally and might come back later, but if somemone knows quick solution or already working for future fix. I am happy for them to fix it. Thanks!
