http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13769 --- Comment #8 from Marat Tanalin (tanalin.com) <mtanalin@yandex.ru> 2011-08-31 13:29:22 UTC --- (In reply to comment #7) What exact negative impact (any really serious) you think such backwards-incompatibility can have in this case? As web-developer with 10-years experience, I think there is no actual compatibility problem here: client-side validation is purely _assisting_ functionality, it's just about usability for user, it does _not_ ensure that data sent to server are actually valid at all. All data should be validated on server-side _anyway_, so it's completely wrong to rely on client-side validation only. On the contrary, trimming whitespace by default for required fields will be just positive _evolution_ that will make client-side validation _consistent_ with server-side one: leading/trailing whitespace is _always_ trimmed on server-side in real-world web-applications. -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
