Semicolon in CSS [duplicate]

Answer 1

Well.. as you said, it's not required, but no one said, it can not be there... the IDE just adds it, so when you want to add another property, you don't have to add a semicolon.

Answer 2

It is not required by the specification, but, strangely enough, the YUI compressor always adds these semicolons to my CSS files :/ I had to write an additional script for deleting them each time.

Answer 3

On the minified version you should remove it.

Answer 4

True, it is not required, but I like to leave it in case I want to add any more attributes later. The page weight that it reduces by removing these is negligible.

Answer 5

Yes, it is not required, but for consistency and best practices, just add it.

Answer 6

Either way, it won't affect your styles.
