Making it magic seems confusing and error prone. Making data: URLs not support fragments at all seems to be taking away a useful feature. I think we should stick to the "correct" behavior and always treat # as fragment delimiter in data: URLs. I thought we did this already in Opera but apparently we have some bugs. If you have any test cases demonstrating where Opera doesn't follow the spec, that would be helpful in getting it fixed. cheers -- Simon Pieters Opera Software
