This has been discussed before (although possibly not on this mailing list?) and I believe that a summary would be: * It was completely wrong * Firefox had this bug [bug 235441, lots of discussion there too] * Firefox won't fix it because there's a website builder that relies on it * Other browsers have started to emulate this fault * The spec is being retrospectively changed to match Firefox's behaviour * any content that relied on the original specification is now broken -- Stewart Brodie Team Leader - ANT Galio Browser ANT Software Limited
