Web Compatibility Test

   <scribe> ACTION: Dom to review the DOM Level 2 Style sheet test case
   proposed by wilhelm [recorded in
   [9]http://www.w3.org/2008/06/24-mwts-minutes.html#action06] [DONE]

   Dom: looks technically good, but not sure it is specific to mobile
   enough to deserve being included

   Wilhelm: it is not mobile specific, indeed; a generic test for style
   sheets DOM
   ... but they are pretty useful for various web applications

   Dom: but is there a strong need for using dom style sheets support
   from the community?

   Wilhelm: I don't have a strong opinion for this particular feature -
   but think we should test for DOM Level 2 support

   Dom: ok, let's go with that one for the next release

   Kai: I'm struggling to see the use cases for DOM style sheets -
   which web apps want to use it or do use it?
   ... manipulating style from scripts seems like breaking the
   separation between presentation/logic

   Wilhelm: make sense; probably should test for something else then...
   Any suggestion?

   Kai: I'm interested in events in general

   Dom: what about Mutation events? they are part of DOM Level 3
   events, (not a rec, but quite stable)
   ... they seem to be quite useful

   Kai: yeah, that's what I had in mind

   Wilhelm: sounds good

   <scribe> ACTION: Kai to propose a test case around DOM mutation
   events [recorded in
   [10]http://www.w3.org/2008/07/01-mwts-minutes.html#action02]

   <scribe> ACTION: Kai to propose an updated AJAX test with onload (or
   other event) added [recorded in
   [11]http://www.w3.org/2008/06/24-mwts-minutes.html#action07] [DONE]

     [11] http://www.w3.org/2008/06/24-mwts-minutes.html#action07

   Kai: I added a window.onload() call to xhtmlhttprequest.js
   ... a one-line change

   [12]http://static.webvm.net/wct/xmlhttprequest.js

     [12] http://static.webvm.net/wct/xmlhttprequest.js

   Kai: is window.onload standard?

   Dom: I think you're supposed to put the onload event on the body
   element

   e.g. body = document.getElementByTagName("body")[$1\47]

   <wilhelm> <body onload='foo()'>

   body.onload("foo")

     [13] http://git.webvm.net/?p=wct;a=commitdiff;h=ffceaad60e690600b2f56fd43755fe7e77da38ed

   <hendry> <body onload="callXMLFile()">

   <hendry> window != body

   <scribe> ACTION: Kai to update the onload event in
   xhtmlhttprequest.js [recorded in
   [14]http://www.w3.org/2008/07/01-mwts-minutes.html#action04]

   [15]http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-Window-20060407/

     [15] http://www.w3.org/TR/2006/WD-Window-20060407/

   <hendry> <body onload="callXMLFile()"> is very common (i see it all
   the time)

   Dom: you also have a proposed update to the cookies test

   Kai: mostly a js-lint clean up of the test

   <hendry>

   Wilhelm: plus the unicode thing, right?

   Kai: looking at the cookies RFC, the acceptable documentations are
   quite interesting
   ... wondering whether we should target these
   ... maybe that's going too far
   ... I think cookies support is one of the things were bad browsers
   can react pretty badly

   dom: sounds like a good idea in general, but maybe not in the WCTMB?
   ... I would support building a set of test cases around cookies
   after we're done with WCTMB
   ... Wilhelm, what do you think about unicode based cookies?

   Wilhelm: not sure

   Kai: your original test used "escape" - I think it is deprecated

   ev=1.2&content-type=text/plain

     [17] http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/~checkout~/2008/mobile-test/cookie.js?rev=1.2&content-type=text/plain

   <scribe> ACTION: Wilhelm to update cookies test based on Kai's
   suggestions [recorded in
   [18]http://www.w3.org/2008/07/01-mwts-minutes.html#action05]

   <scribe> ACTION: Dom to request a CVS account for Kai [recorded in
   [19]http://www.w3.org/2008/07/01-mwts-minutes.html#action06]

   [Kai, BTW, you suggested the removal of the data: uri test:

   l :) ]

     [20] http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-mwts/2008Apr/0005.html

   Kai: what about the data: uri test? do you think that's a good idea

   Wilhelm: we could include it as part of the canvas test

   dom: I would support having this as part of the canvas test

   <scribe> ACTION: Wilhelm to update canvas test to use data: URL
   scheme [recorded in
   [21]http://www.w3.org/2008/07/01-mwts-minutes.html#action07]

   Kai: I've also noticed data-attribute being discussed on HTML5

   dom: probably too early for inclusion in the test

Mobile Browser Concurrency Test

   [22]http://www.cloudfour.com/36/mobile-browser-concurrency-test/

     [22] http://www.cloudfour.com/36/mobile-browser-concurrency-test/

   Dom: a performance test for mobile browsers
   ... is performance a good topic for our next deliverable?

   Wilhelm: sounds good

   Kai: +1

next meeting

   Dom: next meeting on July 22nd
