RE: AccName test expectations bug + prototype bug?

For the markup,

<label for="test">foo <input id="test" type="button" name="test" title="bar"> baz</label>

I have the result for

accName: "foo baz"

accDesc: "bar"

(Running AccName Computation Prototype version: 2.16)

There was a bug in that processing which I fixed a few minutes ago, but title shouldn't be processed on subnodes of a tree and added to name.

Right. Though whether or not it should be is, I think, up to the HTML-AAM. What implementors are actually doing is another question, but, again, I believe what they do is simplify/collapse whitespace.

Another question for the group. My guess is that we (the group) assume it should be "foo baz", but what's in AccName step 2.F.ii suggests to me that the space wouldn't be there. Thursday's going to be a fun meeting.
I can tell. :)

Me neither. Another topic for Thursday I guess.
