http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5753 Summary: parsing issues with legacy UAs Product: HTML WG Version: unspecified Platform: All URL: http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/InterimLegacyBridgingMarkup OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Spec proposals AssignedTo: dave.null@w3.org ReportedBy: rob@robburns.com QAContact: public-html-bugzilla@w3.org CC: ian@hixie.ch, mike@w3.org, public-html@w3.org For the text/html serialization only: • many key implementations do not use DTDs or any similar mechanism so they cannot correctly parse unknown HTML elements • authors want to use the new semantics elements provided by in HTML5, but cannot do so if targeted UAs do not properly parse those elements • routine DOM states cannot be serialized to text/html without loss of data This interim markup has two separate but related issues: • content models not supported by the p (paragraph) element • incorrect parsing for newly introduced elements (parsed either as void, paragraph-terminating or non-paragraph-terminating) (see http://esw.w3.org/topic/HTML/InterimLegacyBridgingMarkup for evolving solution proposals) -- Configure bugmail: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
