Hello!
04:50
<yaffle>
Why Firefox delays FIRST "progress" event for XMLHttpRequest for about 50ms ?
04:51
<yaffle>
and Chrome fires FIRST progress event while readyState === 2

07:20
<matjas>
jgraham: IMHO crowdsourcing the results per browser through Browserscope (like on http://mathiasbynens.be/demo/xhr-responsetype) is still a good reason to have a separate test page
07:21
<Ms2ger>
matjas, tests should just be under /XMLHttpRequest, not /XMLHttpRequest/tests/submissions/MathiasBynens
07:26
<matjas>
Ms2ger: fixed
09:16
<BW^->
XMLHttpRequest 2 spec question:
09:16
<BW^->
a FormData submitted using XMLHttpRequest.send() in a browser with XHR version 2 support - how do we get a proper content-type set on the XHR submission, so the server knows what "boundary" to scan for?
09:16
<BW^->
i mean, the spec is not intended to be that the server must autodetect boundary right???
09:17
<BW^->
ah wait, trying with not setting any content-type on the XHR as to let the browser set it.
09:27
<jgraham>
matjas: Nice. Your history rewrite upset critic a bit though. That might just be a critic bug of course...
10:05
<BW^->
could it ever happen that XHR2 would .send() a file from a FormData within the form data MIME-encoded contents, in another format than binary?
10:22
<matjas>
jgornick: it is :P
10:48
<matjas>
oh man, s/jgornick/jgraham/
11:13
<jgraham>
matjas: What did you actually do?
11:15
<matjas>
jgraham: git commit --amend; git push -f
11:16
<jgraham>
I see
11:16
<jgraham>
It's a pity that github encourages that kind of behaviour :(
11:17
<odinho>
It's a history rewrite with new changes as well.
11:17
<jgraham>
(it makes more sense to rebase the branch once it is reviewed. But github strongly encourages merges)
11:24
<SimonSapin>
jgraham: are you saying that amend is bad but rebase is good? (I’m exagerating a bit)
11:24
<Ms2ger>
I'm saying that git is bad and hg is good
11:27
<jgraham>
SimonSapin: I'm saying that rewriting pushed commits in ways that both change the content and the history is bad
11:28
<jgraham>
(except pure moves obviously)
11:28
<jgraham>
(but they are equivalent to merges)
11:40
<ondras>
Ms2ger: I am happy to hear someone who favors mercurial as well. Do you have any particular areas where hg triumphs over git?
12:06
<mynameis>
can you explain this? If the parent element is an ol element, then the li element has an ordinal value.
12:06
<mynameis>
what means ordinal value?
12:16
<GPHemsley>
TabAtkins: Ah, thanks, that's cool—except for one problem: they're not aligned properly.
12:27
<Ms2ger>
ondras, usability?
12:29
<ondras>
Ms2ger: well, some uses cases in particular? I favor hg mostly because of some subjective feelings (such as "bookmark" being a much better name than "branch"), but I am having troubles arguing with some concrete scenarios
12:30
<ondras>
Ms2ger: so I am interested in what *you* find superior in mercurial
12:33
<mynameis>
if I make good website about webdesign with nice reference to all html elements css properties javascript functions and syntax tutorials php/mysql .. will you put it on the topic? ^^
12:33
<Ms2ger>
No
13:28
<SimonSapin>
mynameis: you can contribute to webplatform.org
13:28
<SimonSapin>
Or MDN. Or both.
14:41
<matjas>
in case it’s useful for anyone else — encode/decode HTML entities as per the HTML spec, from the command line: https://github.com/mathiasbynens/he#using-the-he-binary
14:45
<mynameis>
SimonSapin, ok
15:34
<TabAtkins>
GPHemsley: Such a complainer. ^_^ They're aligned properly for being list-style-position:inside list items.
15:35
<TabAtkins>
GPHemsley: You can fake outside alignment to some degree with abspos, but really you just need to wait until ::marker is supported by browsers.
15:49
<GPHemsley>
TabAtkins: Yeah, that's what I figured. I just wish they'd hurry up. (The Mozilla bug has been on file for ~7 years.)
15:51
<Ms2ger>
Patches welcome :)
15:53
<smaug____>
ah, good, annevk commenting in Web Audio mailing list about the insane idea to expose data races
15:53
<smaug____>
hopefully that issue will be fixed
16:07
<Hixie>
mynameis1: ordinal means "Of or relating to a thing's position in a series"
16:14
<GPHemsley>
Ms2ger: Oh, it's on my radar now. But it'd be a big time commitment, since I have no idea where the code lives or what it should look like. ;)
16:15
<GPHemsley>
Ms2ger: Also, waiting for a response from dbaron as to what his plans are.

Hi, I was wondering if people are aware http://validator.nu/ is giving a 503.
17:23
<gsnedders>
jgraham: "Disable tracking" isn't doing anything.
17:25
<gsnedders>
https://critic.hoppipolla.co.uk/r/225 appears not be updating properly
17:31
<jgraham>
gsnedders: It was disabled
17:31
<jgraham>
I just enabled it
17:31
<gsnedders>
:)
17:31
<gsnedders>
Anyhow, weird.
17:31
<gsnedders>
Never showed up as disabled here.
17:33
<jgraham>
gsnedders: Probably cached
17:33
<jgraham>
Or something
17:45
<Rintze>
Bump. (validator.nu gives a "Service Temporarily Unavailable" 503 error)
17:47
<jgraham>
Rintze: I think hsivonen_ and MikeSmith are both timezone-impaired right now
17:53
<Rintze>
Do you know if they'll catch up on the log?
17:53
<Rintze>
I'm also not sure if this is the best place to report the issue.
17:58
<jgraham>
Rintze: I think so
17:59
<Rintze>
Okay, thanks. Have a good day.

jsbell, ping
18:12
<jsbell>
cshu: what's up?
18:13
<jsbell>
(FYI, I've been on vacation for the last week so missed any interesting discussions)
18:13
<cshu>
jsbell, i plan to make a proposal about atob/btoa binary encoding. can you create an account for me on whatwg?
18:14
<cshu>
jsbell, i didn't see anything going on within my thread. i am based on east-coast so i don't know if anybody met to talk aobut binary encoding in CA
18:15
<jsbell>
cshu: I doubt there was any discussion not on the list; not a high priority topic.
18:15
<cshu>
jsbell, i guess so, too.
18:15
<jsbell>
cshu: I believe you need to follow the directions at the top of http://wiki.whatwg.org/ to get the account, i.e ping someone with admin powers i.e. not me...
18:16
<jsbell>
cshu: Oh, wow, I am on the list.
18:16
<jsbell>
Let me figure out how.
18:16
<cshu>
jsbell, YEAH. that's why i ping you. :)
18:23
<jsbell>
cshu: you should get email shortly w/ random password etc
18:23
<cshu>
jsbell, excellent! thank you so much

omg guys why tet looks like this in opera, is it just me or?

<rego>
I've a question about if breaks should work or not in <BR> elements (I sent a mail to www-style explaining the behavior of breaks in Gecko and WebKit: http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-style/2013Jul/0535.html ) any feedback on the topic is welcomed, thanks :-)
22:54
<annevk>
Hixie: about the Date object thing, the link I gave earlier to es-discuss has various developers on record
22:58
<annevk>
rego: I recommend looking in the rendering section of the HTML standard to see how <br> is to be implemented
22:58
<annevk>
rego: then emulate that with a <span> (if possible) and see what happens
23:06
<rego>
annevk: thanks for the feedback
23:07
<rego>
I had already tried with <SPAN> elements, the behavior in Gecko is the same than with <BR> elements, however in WebKit the behavior is different a <SPAN> element with "display:block" is enough to cause a break (it doesn't need content, like for the case of <BR> elements)
23:08
<rego>
according to the spec, forced breaks should only work in block elements, and <BR> is an inline element in WebKit (even if you mark it as display:block) unless you set content:"" to it
23:33
<Hixie>
anne: that link seems to only have you, brendan, and rick on record -- and rick is just asking a question. So, not sure what you're referring to.
