The `abort()` method, as in the spec: > 1. Terminate the request. > 2. If state is either opened with the send() flag set, headers received, or loading, run the request error steps for event abort. > 3. If state is done, set state to unsent. Consider this: ```js var xhr = new XMLHttpRequest(); // UNSENT xhr.open('GET', ''); // OPENED with send() flag unset xhr.abort(); // UNSENT ``` Following the spec, nothing should happen in steps `2` and `3`, leaving the state `OPENED`. This breaks [web-platform-tests/abort-during-open](https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/blob/master/XMLHttpRequest/abort-during-open.js), which expects `UNSENT`. >From what I've seen, the abort spec was last changed in the scope of #54. At this point I have no good suggestion on how to reformulate it to pass [web-platform-tests/abort-during-open](https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/blob/master/XMLHttpRequest/abort-during-open.js) and [web-platform-tests/open-during-abort](https://github.com/w3c/web-platform-tests/blob/master/XMLHttpRequest/open-during-abort.htm), as both get to step `3` with "OPENED with send() flag unset", but the final status is expected to be different. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
