Hi, As alluded before [1], the modern and correct way of writing WebIDL with respec is to use the so-called "contiguous" mode rather than the "oldschool" one. As transitioning between the two can require quite a bit of work with specs with lots of WebIDL, I've built [2] a respec profile that can help (attached). To use it: * replace the link to the respec script by a link to that special profile * save the generated document as the new source for your respec * re-replace the respec link with the normal respec profile * fix anchors and auto-links as needed I have tested this only with one spec so far, and I'm not volunteering to maintain and publish that profile much beyond the usage I'll have for it in the upcoming few weeks; but I thought I would mention it in case others are facing the same conversion needs.
