http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13943 --- Comment #7 from Philip Jägenstedt <philipj@opera.com> 2011-09-16 12:02:41 UTC --- Whether or not "-->" is a magic piece of syntax is really orthogonal to the issue here. After a blank line, just treat each line that does not contain "-->" as the id line, effectively using the last line before the timing line as the id. In general, I think we should make the parser as lax as possible without sacrificing useful extensibility surface. If cues or part of cues are dropped because of syntax errors, it's very likely that this will go unnoticed, since you typically won't be proof-watching the entire captions after making edits. We discussed more issues like this at OVC and will probably be filing bugs to relax the constrains on the timing format, unclosed left angle brackets (<) and perhaps & escapes. (This goes against my earlier insistence on not allowing commas as the decimal separator, at that time I wasn't really considering hand authoring.) -- 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.
