http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12561 --- Comment #31 from Luke Plant <L.Plant.98@cantab.net> 2011-11-21 00:19:55 UTC --- (In reply to comment #30) > 4) An alternative solution has been proposed - that HTML5 validators issue a > warning for the problematic case of a specified 'base' element and @action="" > or @action=" ". The solution appears to address the problem that exists for the > '0.2%' without any of the disadvantages that banning an empty @action attribute > would cause the '4%'. Sorry, I forgot one point that Ian Hixie made in comment #20 - that if you only issue the warning about @action="" when <base> is present, the author may be unaware that simply adding a <base> could be problematic. Therefore, perhaps the validator should issue a warning whenever it finds @action="". This warning might be nuisance for the many legitimate cases of @action="" with no <base>, but it is much better than issuing an error IMO.
