For what it's worth, I agree with David that it would be significantly worse to leave things undefined than almost anything else. As editor (of any spec) I don't intend to ever leave anything undefined if it is needed for interoperability. Sometimes not everyone will be happy. There are several things in the WHATWG draft today that aren't what I would like to have, e.g.. But it's more important to have an interoperably implementable spec (for both conforming and nonconforming content) than it is to have everyone happy. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
