| 04:54 | <Domenic> | I also recently learned about ​, ​, ​ and ​. (These all map to U+0200B ZERO WIDTH SPACE.) |
| 06:52 | <freddy> | why did the html5 era bring additional named entities in the first place? does anyone know? |
| 06:55 | <Domenic> | Were they additional? I assumed it just included the union of all existing browsers. |
| 07:57 | <freddy> | They seemed additional to me. :-) |
| 09:45 | <Ms2ger> | I think they got added from mathml |
| 16:03 | <jmdyck> | Dominic Farolino: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#dom-trees says "A content attribute is said to change value only if its new value is different than its previous value; setting an attribute to a value it already has does not change it." |
| 17:15 | <Dominic Farolino> | jmdyck: yep, Domenic recalled this in https://github.com/whatwg/html/issues/11400#issuecomment-3006843232. I vaguely remembered that HTML and DOM diverged here, but couldn't remember the details |
| 18:22 | <annevk> | I think we should strike HTML's definition in favor of early returns here and there. It's definitely not something that can be applied generally. |
