http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=8035 Summary: HTMLAllCollection should inherit from HTMLCollection Product: HTML WG Version: unspecified Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: HTML5 spec bugs AssignedTo: dave.null@w3.org ReportedBy: mjs@apple.com QAContact: public-html-bugzilla@w3.org CC: ian@hixie.ch, mike@w3.org, public-html@w3.org In browsers that expose global interface objects, the document.all object either is or inherits from HTMLCollection, thus allowing changes to HTMLCollection.prototype to affect it. In HTML5, it does not inherit, so it will not be affected by HTMLCollection.prototype changes. This seems like a needless change in behavior. I think it would be better for compatibility to make HTMLAllCollection inherit from HTMLCollection, add the tags() method, and define the differences in operation behavior in prose. -- 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.
