| 00:23 | <littledan> | Hi everyone |
| 00:24 | <littledan> | would anything bad happen if, in ES, we added 'global' to point to the WindowProxy? |
| 03:53 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | Help: A form that used to work flawlessly now shows: Synchronous XMLHttpRequest on the main thread is deprecated because of its detrimental effects to the end user's experience. For more help, check http://xhr.spec.whatwg.org/. |
| 04:08 | <miketaylr> | xxMatiasFCxx: the form should still work |
| 04:09 | <miketaylr> | the message is just there to encourage you to not use sync xhr |
| 04:09 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | lol it was a very stupid mistake from me lol, deleted a cname and was causing the problem lol |
| 04:09 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | i'm a shamed |
| 04:09 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | btw what is this new warning ? is it going to stop working someday ? |
| 04:09 | <miketaylr> | probably not for a very long time |
| 04:10 | <miketaylr> | but if you change it to async xhr, the form won't lock up the user's browser |
| 04:10 | <miketaylr> | which is a nicer behavior |
| 04:15 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | and what do you mean by block ? |
| 04:18 | <miketaylr> | xxMatiasFCxx: until the server responds (or the request times out), the browser UI will be "frozen" |
| 04:18 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | that doesn't happen to me heheeh |
| 04:18 | <miketaylr> | the UI thread is waiting on the sync xhr |
| 04:18 | <miketaylr> | see https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/XMLHttpRequest/Synchronous_and_Asynchronous_Requests |
| 04:18 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | y just use jquery $.post |
| 04:18 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | actually $.ajax |
| 04:19 | <miketaylr> | here's a good article too http://blogs.msdn.com/b/wer/archive/2011/08/03/why-you-should-use-xmlhttprequest-asynchronously.aspx |
| 04:19 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | thanks miketaylr |
| 04:19 | <miketaylr> | np, cheers xxMatiasFCxx |
| 04:19 | <miketaylr> | bed time for me |
| 04:20 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | miketaylr, I should go to bed also :S |
| 04:20 | <xxMatiasFCxx> | gnite |
| 04:20 | <miketaylr> | nn |
| 06:01 | <annevk_> | Domenic: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/webappapis.html#concept-script under global object |
| 06:27 | <SimonSapin> | TabAtkins: well, maybe I am being pedantic, but you can only have one definition of the same function. It’s only indirectly, through generics, that you can make that definition do different things |
| 14:17 | <jelle> | what is the latest stable html5lib release? Since the 1.0b5 release sounds like it is beta |
| 16:20 | <Domenic> | annevk: did you see littledan's question above? "would anything bad happen if, in ES, we added 'global' to point to the WindowProxy?" |
| 16:22 | <Domenic> | annevk: reported https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=29012 btw because that was my first attempt at finding this |
| 19:33 | <annevk> | Domenic: I didn't, but why do we want yet another alias for window? |
| 19:34 | <annevk> | littledan: just standardize self |
| 19:35 | <annevk> | littledan: at least that's already consistent across window and workers and wouldn't pose any risks |
| 19:37 | <annevk> | I believe we discussed this before |
| 19:38 | <annevk> | This comes up every six months or so? |
