http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=12072 --- Comment #32 from Leif Halvard Silli <xn--mlform-iua@xn--mlform-iua.no> 2011-05-19 15:54:03 UTC --- (In reply to comment #31) > I'll get a warning added. Validator.nu currently states: ]] Warning: Comments seen before doctype. Internet Explorer will go into the quirks mode. [[ However, the above warning is not 100% correct, as it dpeneds on the format of the comment whether it brings IE in quirks-mode or not. See: http://bugzilla.validator.nu/show_bug.cgi?id=836 With regard to what HTML5 should say:: if comments before the DOCTYPE were illegal, then validators could present a more unambigious error message. But on the other side: it might be better if authors familiarize themselves with the IE problems. -- 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 Thursday, 19 May 2011 15:54:10 UTC
