http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6777 --- Comment #13 from Elliotte Harold <elharo@metalab.unc.edu> 2009-04-06 15:31:53 --- Henri, Just to answer a couple of your points and questions, and then let's take it to private e-mail or whatwg or some such since a bug tracking system isn't the right place for a debate. The specific step I would like to see happen is for HTML 5 to mandate namespace well-formedness and require draconian error handling. I am simply not convinced by the numerous arguments made against that simple step. However I realize that this is not the direction the WhatWG is going to go. Fine. Maybe you're even right. In that case, I want the WhatWg to stop pretending that HTML is really XML and that it can use XML-specs like XPath. It can't. They don't work with non-namespace well-formed documents. Please stop trying to pollute useful, relatively sensible specs like XPath 1.0 with ugly kludges to support one special case. -- 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.
