hmm, still have to use <a> for linking?
07:39
<deltab>
hagabaka: if you mean making something the target of a link, no; that's not been necessary since HTML4
07:40
<deltab>
hagabaka: instead you can set an id attribute on almost any element
07:41
<deltab>
<a href="#section2">section 2</a> ... <div id="section2"> ...

hey all, anyone know what’s up with validator.nu profiles? Pedagogical and polyglot don’t seem to be active

<annevk42>
fwiw, I've often been bit by not changing enctype and type=file
10:45
<annevk42>
the spec should maybe have some kind of warning around type=file
10:45
<annevk42>
or an example
10:46
<annevk42>
Hixie, fun, didn't even know we supported onunload
10:57
<remysharp>
Hixie mentioned some time ago how many different type of heading elements there were, do you know if it was 18 or 22?
11:19
<zcorpan_>
caption,dt,h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6,hgroup,label,legend,optgroup,rt,th,title ... are 15
11:28
<zcorpan_>
"The applet element is a Java-specific variant of the embed element. The applet element is now obsoleted so that all extension frameworks (Java, .NET, Flash, etc) are handled in a consistent manner."
11:28
<zcorpan_>
is .NET a client-side extension framework?
11:28
<annevk42>
works in Silverlight I think
11:29
<zcorpan_>
ah
11:33
<gsnedders_>
Hixie: Do you have any way of manually adding people to the list yourself?
11:33
<gsnedders_>
Actually, I know you do in Mailman…
11:33
<webben>
it's a bit meaningless to count all 6 hX elements as a types of heading elements.
11:34
<gsnedders_>
Hixie: Seeming I can't get subscribed to it myself, can you try adding gsnedders@op? Also, look to see if gsneddon@op is subscribed?
11:55
<Philip`>
webben: Why? They are elements, and they have heading-related semantics
11:56
<Philip`>
so it seems justifiable to include them in a count of heading elements
11:57
<Philip`>
"There are already about 18 elements in HTML that have some kind of semantic that basically boils down to "heading" (<head> <title> <h1> - <h6> <hgroup> <header> <strong> <caption> <thead> <th> <label> <legend> <optgroup> <dt>)"
12:09
<daedb>
Philip`: Why is <strong> in that list?
12:30
<Philip`>
daedb: Ask Hixie :-)
13:02
<daedb>
Hixie: Why is <strong> included in the 18-element heading list?
13:20
<webben>
daedb: I guess because headings are important text?
13:20
<webben>
Full disclosure: I've used <strong> in the past when I ran out of h-levels.

<Dashiva>
So if there's no @version, RDFa content is assumed to be the most recent version, and they're expecting incompatible changes between versions. Sounds like fun.
16:46
<Dashiva>
Maybe the inline bug report feature should have a note suggesting people include rationales
16:53
<Philip`>
Dashiva: A single-line text box seems to actively discourage rationales
16:55
<Dashiva>
Maybe there should be two boxes, one for the comment and another for rationale. That might be even more effective than a single, larger box.
16:55
<Philip`>
Don't want to discourage people from quick comments on typos etc, though
16:56
<Philip`>
Extra boxes might scare people away
16:59
<Dashiva>
I don't think losing typo corrections is a big deal, as those can be fixed without any process at all
16:59
<Dashiva>
Whereas technical changes lead to discussion and can take quite a bit of time to resolve
17:13
<jgraham>
I think the feedback thing should have something like Summary: [ ] and Description (optional): [ ] to make it work for typos and other feedback too
17:14
<Dashiva>
I don't think that'd help for cases like [Bug 7886] New: Drop applet, marquee
17:17
<jgraham>
Hmm... I don't really see what the problem would be. The second box would allow people to provide long rationale
17:20
<Dashiva>
Allow, but it wouldn't encourage
17:22
<jgraham>
Sure but it should be pretty obvious that if you put "drop applet, marquee" with no extra information that doesn't constitute actionable feedback

<caution>
are frames/iframes removed from the html5 standard?
23:18
<Hixie>
frames are, iframes aren't
23:19
<Hixie>
frames were also removed from html4
