Nobody currently supports this as far as I can tell: http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/?%3C!DOCTYPE%20html%3E%0A%3Cmeta%20http-equiv%3DContent-Script-Type%20content%3Dtext%2Fplain%3E%0A%3Cbody%20onload%3D%22w(%27test%27)%22%3E If someone can convince a browser vendor or two to implement this, it would go a long way towards arguing for it to be in the spec. There's no point adding it if nobody is going to follow it. I'll look into how common it is, too. However, even if it's used with random values, we can always introduce a new value. That's not a problem. The problem is getting people to implement it, IMHO. -- Ian Hickson U+1047E )\._.,--....,'``. fL http://ln.hixie.ch/ U+263A /, _.. \ _\ ;`._ ,.
