Is anyone following the URL work?
01:35
<annevk>
It seems to be going completely wrong
01:35
<annevk>
http://trac.tools.ietf.org/wg/iri/trac/ticket/40 e.g. seems to suggest they somehow think the query component think is related to HTML forms...
01:35
<annevk>
s/think/thing/
01:36
<annevk>
I hope abarth will just define all URL processing together with the URL API
01:36
<abarth>
its a dream!
02:20
<annevk>
abarth, pretty good one :)
02:20
<annevk>
Maybe once I'm a bit further with this WebVTT fun I can give the URL work one more chance and submit some comments
02:23
<annevk>
Oh man, Hixie's idea of ranges exposed to CSS in a <textarea> would make things pretty awesome for my WebVTT validator
02:23
<annevk>
I guess the alternative is dealing with the pain that is contenteditable=""
02:52
<annevk>
Hixie, hey you here?
02:53
<annevk>
Hixie, wondering if you are interested in fixing WebVTT settings parsing
02:54
<annevk>
dinnertime I guess
03:34
<annevk>
The cue text tokenizer also seems buggy
03:34
<annevk>
Why would you append 0-9 to the buffer?
03:34
<annevk>
in fact, any character other than one of ampltg will result in the failure
04:03
<annevk>
Hixie, I just realized you were talking about getting the number of bugs down
04:03
<annevk>
Hixie, I hope that does not apply to WebVTT bugs
04:03
<annevk>
Hixie, if it does, sorry
04:03
<annevk>
Hixie, maybe next time just opt for writing perfect text :p
05:22
<annevk>
Hixie, should we set it up so that for bugs such as http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=14541 one email goes to the WHATWG list so people at least know a bug has been filed?
05:23
<annevk>
Hixie, because currently there's no mailing list that gets such an indication which means it might end up getting ignored
05:23
<divya>
o i c

(wrong window)
05:25

o i c

<divya>
:P

<annevk>
Wait JavaScript does still not have "string"[-1] == "g"?!
06:15
<annevk>
What is the fun in writing val[val.length-1]?
06:16
<zewt>
bill by the character
06:16
<divya>
wow someone is discovering javascript i notice :)
06:17
<divya>
SOMEONE

<MikeSmith>
zewt: I too am faster than native, by the way
06:17
<zewt>
you should slow down, enjoy the scenery
06:17
<divya>
:)))
06:17
<MikeSmith>
heh
06:18
<zewt>
annevk: "string".substr(-1) works
06:19
<divya>
annevk: are u trying to write with python syntax in JS?
06:19
<zewt>
not a question of syntax...
06:19
<annevk>
divya, well I do sometimes forget the braces
06:19
<annevk>
divya, including the parenthesis
06:19
<annevk>
o_O
06:20
<annevk>
but they are caught quickly
06:20
<annevk>
[-1] just returns undefined
06:20
<divya>
hahahah travails of learning a new language.
06:20
<zewt>
uh heh
06:22
<annevk>
I think it's because Python is Dutch and therefore makes more sense
06:22
<annevk>
to me anyway
06:23
<zewt>
python is good at everything except templating :(
06:27
<MikeSmith>
I'm trying to decide if my python skills are worse than my JS skills
06:27
<annevk>
Anyway, I have a working WebVTT cue text parser
06:28
<annevk>
Including serializer it is less than 200 lines of JavaScript
07:27
<annevk>
hober, don't put energy into Robert Leif man
07:28
<annevk>
hober, although you did get him to cite w3schools.com, which is fun
07:31
<annevk>
Is there some kind of common serialization format in use for WebVTT I can use for tests?
09:07
<annevk>
foolip, I filed a bunch of WebVTT bugs, but I did not include <track> in the title
09:26
<annevk>
zcorpan, I posted an update
09:27
<annevk>
zcorpan, need some kind of test suite format
09:49
<zcorpan>
annevk: nice. will check later

Philip`
wonders if abarth reads logs
10:23
<Philip`>
abarth: "then return generate a fresh globally unique identifier" has too many verbs
10:24
<MikeSmith>
Philip`: I think abarth intended a compound verb there
10:25
<MikeSmith>
either "then return-generate a fresh globally unique identifier" or "then generate-return a fresh globally unique identifier"
10:25
<MikeSmith>
he's very efficient that way
10:25
<MikeSmith>
Philip`: btw, the canvas test suite should be made to use testharness.js
10:25
<MikeSmith>
maybe somebody could work on that
10:26
<Philip`>
Somebody maybe could indeed

MikeSmith, btw, I did some work on making Philip`'s canvas tests use testharness.js, it's in a W3C bug somewhere
18:36
<Ms2ger>
Waiting for Philip`'s review

Ms2ger: hey compared to the part i labeled crazy town, form.submit() is nice and obvious. :-P
