Anne, I do not scrutinize the colossal mass of testcases looking for mere HTML4 issues (unless they have or may have or can have an undeniable effect on the pass/fail condition of the testcases). I examine the testcases looking for serious problems and for HTML/CSS/DOM problems or issues which can have an impact on the pass/fail condition of the testcases. > HTML4 is not what is being > implemented > by the implementors we want to pass the CSS 2.1 test suite. My original point 14- [1] was about duplicated id in those testcases - many testcases - and that those testcases were relying on a script function being able to iterate through the collection of same, identical id-ed elements ... which is not an assured thing to happen. The other points were presented as "other smaller problems" which could be fixed at the same time. My perspective is: if you are going to update a testcase (furthermore a batch of testcases; there are 208 testcases on table-anonymous-objects !), why not fix at the same time all of the [admittedly] smaller issues which are fixable and which were defined in the wiki wrt test format [2] and in CSS2.1 Test Case Authoring Guidelines (section 3.4) [3]? With an advanced text editor, it is very easy to make changes/updates to a batch of testcases.
