RE: webkitdirectory in input

"webkitdirectory" is a proprietary solution. It is specific to Chrome. It is
_not_ part of any standard.

_If_ it gets standardised, it will probably be called "directory".

Until then, it will not validate.

Hello.

I found problem in your validator.
Google Chrome 7 supports directory uploads with input attribute
"webkitdirectory". I develop little example of this feature:
http://html5blog.ru/examples/directory-upload.php
And validate this with your validator: http://validator.w3.org/check?
uri=http://html5blog.ru/examples/directory-upload.php&charset=
(detect+automatically)&doctype=Inline&group=0&user-agent=W3C_Validator/1.1
Is it true that there is error: Attribute webkitdirectory not allowed on
element input at this point? Is attribute "webkitdirectory" is part of
HTML5?

Sorry for my English.
