http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=13173 --- Comment #7 from Jonas Sicking <jonas@sicking.cc> 2011-07-08 23:43:20 UTC --- Sorry, let me try to phrase it more clearly: The problem you have raised is it's a pain to ask users to add "http://" when entering URLs. There are two solutions suggested in this bug: 1. Fix browsers such that when they see markup like <input type=url> they provide UI that allow the user to enter a string which does not start with "http://" but still conform to the current HTML5 drafts. I.e. HTMLInputElement.value and the submitted string still return values that start with "http://" and thus are valid URIs. 2. What you suggest in comment 4. What advantages that solution 2 have over solution 1? The advantage that I can see with solution 1 is that it requires less of the page author. -- 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.Received on Friday, 8 July 2011 23:43:22 UTC
