less: begin(@n) not working?

[Patrik]

Hi,

I wanted to define a less variable for the index I'm using within a number of :begin(n) and :after(n):

Code: Select all

@index: 5;

*MyElement:before(@index) {

...

}

But I get the ParseError "Unrecognised Input".

Is this an intentional limitation?

Thanks and regards,

Patrik

Sorry, should have looked into the spec first...

Using the correct syntax (with curly braces) it works fine:

Code: Select all

@index: 5;

*MyElement:before(@{index}) {

...

}
