https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=23260 Bug ID: 23260 Summary: Make the dir attribute use isolation instead of embedding Product: WHATWG Version: unspecified Hardware: PC OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: HTML Assignee: ian@hixie.ch Reporter: travil@microsoft.com QA Contact: contributor@whatwg.org CC: aharon.lists.lanin@gmail.com, ian@hixie.ch, mike@w3.org, public-html-admin@w3.org, public-html-wg-issue-tracking@w3.org, public-i18n-bidi@w3.org Depends on: 22326 +++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #22326 +++ Cloned at filer's request. As discussed in http://www.w3.org/International/wiki/Html-bidi-isolation, the dir attribute should start using isolation instead of embedding. There is some additional discussion in https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=18490, but further discussion on isolation for the dir attribute should happen here. The only change that appears to be necessary in the spec is in http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/rendering.html#bidirectional-text, replacing all of the following: ========= address, blockquote, center, div, figure, figcaption, footer, form, header, hr, legend, listing, p, plaintext, pre, summary, xmp, article, aside, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hgroup, main, nav, section, table, caption, colgroup, col, thead, tbody, tfoot, tr, td, th, dir, dd, dl, dt, menu, ol, ul, li { unicode-bidi: isolate; } :matches([dir=ltr i], [dir=rtl i], [dir=auto i]):not(address):not(blockquote ):not(center):not(div):not(figure):not(figcaption):not(footer):not(form ):not(header):not(hr):not(legend):not(listing):not(main):not(p):not(plaintext):not(pre ):not(summary):not(xmp):not(article):not(aside):not(h1):not(h2):not(h3):not(h4 ):not(h5):not(h6):not(hgroup):not(nav):not(section):not(table):not(caption ):not(colgroup):not(col):not(thead):not(tbody):not(tfoot):not(tr):not(td ):not(th):not(dir):not(dd):not(dl):not(dt):not(menu):not(ol):not(ul):not(li) { unicode-bidi: embed; } bdi, bdi:matches([dir=ltr i], [dir=rtl i]), output, output:matches([dir=ltr i], [dir=rtl i]), [dir=auto i] { unicode-bidi: isolate; } bdo, bdo:matches([dir=ltr i], [dir=rtl i]) { unicode-bidi: bidi-override; } bdo[dir=auto i] { unicode-bidi: isolate-override; } ========= with the following: ========= address, blockquote, center, div, figure, figcaption, footer, form, header, hr, legend, listing, p, plaintext, pre, summary, xmp, article, aside, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hgroup, main, nav, section, table, caption, colgroup, col, thead, tbody, tfoot, tr, td, th, dir, dd, dl, dt, menu, ol, ul, li, [dir=ltr i], [dir=rtl i], [dir=auto i], bdi, output { unicode-bidi: isolate; } bdo, bdo[dir=ltr i], bdo[dir=rtl i] { unicode-bidi: bidi-override; } bdo[dir=auto i] { unicode-bidi: isolate-override; } ========= Please note that the above leaves <bdo dir="ltr|rtl"> with unicode-bidi: bidi-override instead of the new unicode-bidi: isolate-override. We could move them too to isolate-override, and it may well be cleaner, but this has not been discussed. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
