hsivonen: your html5 schema doesn't seem to allow noscript in head
00:36
zcorpan
notes that ebay uses <noscript><meta http-equiv=refresh
00:45
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: http://validator.nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.imageshack.us&showsource=yes -- the "Malformed byte sequence" error doesn't mark any source (and the link thus doesn't work)
00:47
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: also for imageshack: "Error: First occurrence of id mist." (message #6) -- shouldn't that be Info instead of Error?
00:58
<Philip`>
"Fatal Error: Last error required non-streamable recovery." doesn't sound like a very user-friendly message - I think it'd make more sense if it said something like "Fatal Error: Cannot recover after last error - any further errors will be ignored"
01:11
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: the first message in http://validator.nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wordpress.com&parser=html4tr&showsource=yes seems wrong
01:18
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: perhaps v.nu should know about html 4.0 doctypes. the xhtml 1.0 schemas are a better match than the html5 schema

bzed: I forgot that chardet got lost when I accidentially deleted my /bin directory and had to reinstall :)
08:55
<bzed>
:)
08:55
<bzed>
I think I never run the test with chardet isntalled for 0.9 ;)
08:56
<bzed>
but now that I've added the tests to the build process it complained about it
09:02
<Steve_f>
morning all, offtopic - can anybody tell me if events attached using addEventListener() or attachEvent() can be identified in the DOM?
09:04
<jgraham>
bzed: I think the new version I've uploaded fixed the issues you've reported
09:07
<jgraham>
s/fixed/fixes/
09:14
<bzed>
jgraham: same location?
09:15
<jgraham>
Yep
09:15
bzed
checks
09:17
<bzed>
jgraham: works fine, thanks :)
09:26
<othermaciej>
Steve_f: not via the DOM API, no
09:40
<Steve_f>
othermaciej: thanks

zcorpan: Re: HTML 4.0 (not 4.01): Where should I draw the line with legacy? Validator.nu is a tool for authors. Why should it support a legacy doctype?
11:42
hsivonen
views source on ln.hixie.ch
11:45
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: Re: first message on http://validator.nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wordpress.com&parser=html4tr&showsource=yes : you chose the HTML 4.01 Transitional parser expectation. the doc had XHTML 1.0 Transitional. Hence, the error.
11:51
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: what do you suggest I do with the parsing of iframe, title and textarea in the HTML 4.01 mode?
11:52
<hsivonen>
the idea of the mode was to emit additional errors--not to actually give a different document tree
11:52
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: yes, i understand that there should be an error, but the message seems wrong. it says that the doctype was an *HTML* doctype, which it wasn't
11:52
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: oh, nm
11:52
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: missed the "not"
11:53
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: perhaps supress the errors about </foo in iframe, since iframes are supposed to allow "markup" in them
11:55
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: I suppose that on some level that counts as helping authors...
11:55
<hsivonen>
I thought I had http://krijnhoetmer.nl/irc-logs/whatwg/20070930#l-150 already covered
11:56
hsivonen
looks
11:57
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: what do you suggest re: </ in title and textarea? same as iframe?
11:58
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: you can whine about </ in title and textarea since they aren't supposed to contain elements and can take entities
11:58
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: the w3 validator will also whine about <foo> in title and textarea, fwiw
11:58
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: ok
12:13
<hsivonen>
turns out I hadn't covered the boolean attributes in HTML4 case when parser is set to auto... only with an explicit parser choice
12:18
<zcorpan>
ok
12:33
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: fixes for HTML4 iframe *tokenization* and boolean attributes checked in
12:33
<hsivonen>
and deployed
12:45
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: fixed source hilite with http://validator.nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.imageshack.us&showsource=yes#cl18c27
12:46
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: thank you
12:46
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: (I can't give you an extract for that one, because the extract subsystem has not received decoded Unicode when the error fires on the byte layer)
12:55
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: ok, cool
14:51
<krijnh>
What's considered better? alt="Logo Foo company" or alt="Foo company" ?
14:58
<zcorpan>
krijnh: assuming the context to be the site logo in the page header, and assuming the image doesn't contain the word "Logo"; the latter
14:58
<zcorpan>
s/site logo/company logo/
14:58
<krijnh>
It's not the logo in the page header
14:58
<krijnh>
But a list of partner companies for example
14:58
<zcorpan>
ok, still the latter
14:59
<zcorpan>
what would you write if you used plain text links?
14:59
<zcorpan>
(or s/links//)
14:59
<krijnh>
They aren't links
15:00
<zcorpan>
what would you write if you used plain text?
15:00
<krijnh>
Just the company names
15:00
<zcorpan>
there you go
15:00
<krijnh>
So you're right :)
15:00
<zcorpan>
:)
15:04
<krijnh>
Doh, it's written in the HTML 5 draft
15:04
<krijnh>
Note to self; rtfm :)

<Philip`>
jgraham: I expect html5lib-0.10.zip shouldn't have tests/testdata/tokenizer/consecutice.patch in it
17:37
<gsnedders>
Philip`: what makes you think that? :P
17:45
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: v.nu is getting really useful now :)
17:46
<zcorpan>
hsivonen: good work
17:46
<hsivonen>
zcorpan: thanks
19:29
jgraham
wonders why his packaging script isn't removing .patch files
19:41
<jgraham>
OK, so maybe I just needed to reload. Thanks Philip`.
20:06
<Philip`>
jgraham: I tend to do it by using 'svn export' to get a clean copy for packaging, because otherwise I worry I'll accidentally leave embarrassing files in the distribution :-)
20:28
<jgraham>
Philip`: I know I ought to do that but never quite do
