annevk: how do i fullscreen with keyboard enabled??
03:55
<Hixie>
firefox doesn't support vh yet?
03:55
<Hixie>
:-(
03:59
<Hixie>
and wtf are event.x and event.y in MouseEvent in chrome
03:59
<zewt>
everyone knows what the world needs most is: more coordinate systems in pointer events
04:10
<Hixie>
also why is chrome sending me a bogus 'mouseover' event on load
04:25
<Hixie>
oh man i wish .style was string settable
04:26
<Hixie>
every
04:26
<Hixie>
time
04:32
<Hixie>
man, how is linear-gradient still only prefixed
05:22
<jwalden>
Hixie: vh/vw/vmin/vmax they're supported in nightlies
05:22
<Hixie>
ah, excellent
05:22
<jwalden>
a recent landing
05:23
<Hixie>
the only other problem i had with firefox was that position:absolute-ing a <textarea> wouldn't affect its size
05:23
<Hixie>
can't work out why
05:23
<Hixie>
(same problem in opera; works in webkit)
05:24
<jwalden>
zewt: of coarse!
05:24
<jwalden>
a little late to respond, but a late pun is better than no pun

<MikeSmith>
Hixie: thinking about outlines . did anybody ever propose the idea of providing a way for a document to display its own outline?
07:12
<MikeSmith>
essentialy, having the browser be able to natively render and insert the outline at some point in the document
07:13
<MikeSmith>
in the way that anolis or whatever generate a ToC and add it, during postprocessing
07:13
<MikeSmith>
but instead not as postprocessing
07:14
<MikeSmith>
and not relying on custom script or a script library to add it
07:14
<MikeSmith>
I'm not saying I think it would be a good idea necessarily to have such a feature
07:15
<MikeSmith>
just wondering if there was ever any serious discussion about it
07:15
<MikeSmith>
because for one thing if browser were to ever implement support for the outline algorithm, that case would seem to be the main case for it
07:37
<SimonSapin>
MikeSmith: not quite "the web", but WeasyPrint makes PDF from web pages and adds an "outline" which is metadata that PDF viewers often show in a sidebar
07:38
<MikeSmith>
SimonSapin: thanks
07:38
<SimonSapin>
there is also some demand to have a TOC automatically generated in the document
07:39
<MikeSmith>
yeah I was thinking about it in the context of people saying that no browsers have implemented the outline algorithm
07:40
<MikeSmith>
which yeah none of them have, but then there's no feature in the spec yet that actually exposes the outline to Web content or to Web authors
07:40
<MikeSmith>
so browsers don't really have anything to implement
07:40
<SimonSapin>
In WeasyPrint this is not based on the outline algorithm but on CSS bookmark-level http://dev.w3.org/csswg/css3-gcpm/#bookmarks which by default is <h1> ... <h6>
07:41
<MikeSmith>
yeah of course that works fine if you document doesn't use nested sections
07:41
<SimonSapin>
and some fixups to get a proper tree out of a sequence of level that can be non-sense
07:41
<MikeSmith>
section elements
07:41
<MikeSmith>
ok
07:42
<MikeSmith>
so anyway I can imagine that authors might like to have a way to automatically include a generated outline in a document
07:42
<MikeSmith>
including a ToC being the most common case
07:42
<SimonSapin>
yes, for printed stuff this is a big demand
07:43
<MikeSmith>
but I can't remember actually ever hearing many authors asking for it on the whatwg list or elsewhere
07:45
<SimonSapin>
for the web not as much I guess. But WeasyPrint/PrinceXML/Antenna House are tools for printing that happen to take HTML/CSS as input more than web browsers
07:47
<SimonSapin>
(although … http://weasyprint.org/docs/tutorial/#weasyprint-navigator :)
07:58
<SimonSapin>
MikeSmith: maybe an automated toc/outline could be a WebComponent, though I have to read up on what that is
07:59
<MikeSmith>
SimonSapin: I think for the non-Web case we don't need that feature as port of the browser engine
08:00
<MikeSmith>
because those are sorta really all post-processing tools
08:12
<SimonSapin>
MikeSmith: eventually (ie. given infinite time to work on it) I’d want to have that in WeasyPrint’s engine, not in a separate processing step. Maybe something you can trigger with CSS
08:13
<SimonSapin>
but yeah, the use cases are very different from browsers
08:13
<MikeSmith>
yeah
10:20
<annevk>
Hixie: you simply fullscreen
10:53
<Ms2ger>
I guess we should define that a Document has an origin
11:12
<annevk>
Ms2ger: the main problem is that you need some "HTML knowledge" to figure out which origin to copy
11:13
<annevk>
Ms2ger: "HTML knowledge" being that the global object has an associated Document object
11:13
<Ms2ger>
It's all quite tangled, isn't it?
11:13
<annevk>
This web we weave? Indeed sir, it is tangled.
11:47
<annevk>
Did I mention I dislike percent encoding?
11:48
<Ms2ger>
You might have
12:22
<annevk>
SimonSapin: percent decode will be defined to be what you wanted it to mean
12:23
<annevk>
So the only difference between urlencoded and query is that the former does magic with U+0020
14:00
<annevk>
fixing that was no fun

<yroc>
Hi all, I'm trying to write up some rationale in the wiki WRT content models
21:55
<yroc>
For one thing, I notice that flow content and palpable content are defined only by extension (listing of members).
21:56
<yroc>
No intensional definitions for these categories
21:56
<yroc>
Trying to understand meaning/motivation for these categories...
21:56
<yroc>
any pointers?
22:43
<Hixie>
poor yroc
22:43
<Hixie>
we keep missing each other
