http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8372 --- Comment #4 from Henri Sivonen <hsivonen@iki.fi> 2009-11-25 13:45:14 --- (In reply to comment #3) > Which DOM interface do you think spacer should have? Apparently HTMLSpacerElement that is a mere marker interface that doesn't differ from HTMLElement. > Does supporting <spacer> in the rendering gain Web compat? I flipped through the pages from http://canvex.lazyilluminati.com/survey/2007-07-17/analyse.cgi/tag/spacer in both Firefox and Safari. I couldn't find a single page where the lack of <spacer> support disadvantaged Safari in a noticeable way. I found one case (the same that Maciej found) where you could spot a tiny disadvantage to Safari when comparing pages side-by-side: http://www.literaturkritik.de/public/rezension.php?rez_id=1547 I did notice that rendering the border around linked images disadvantaged Firefox in some cases. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=452915 >From this data, it's hard to make the case that non-Gecko browsers should add layout-level support for <spacer>. -- 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.
