I thought I should probably send this to www-style also. The WHATWG thread is at http://lists.whatwg.org/pipermail/whatwg-whatwg.org/2012-February/thread.html#34802 ------- Forwarded message ------- From: "Simon Pieters" <simonp@opera.com> To: "whatwg@whatwg.org" <whatwg@whatwg.org> Cc: Subject: Quirks Mode Standard Date: Thu, 09 Feb 2012 15:51:42 +0100 Hi Today I started working on a spec for quirks mode. I used https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Mozilla_Quirks_Mode_Behavior as a starting point. The draft is here: http://simon.html5.org/specs/quirks-mode It is very likely that more quirks need to be added, but as I went through the list I was surprised about how many of them were *not* widely implemented across browsers, and so may not be needed for Web compat and can be dropped. I'm happy for the spec to be moved somewhere, and I can volunteer to edit it, but I can't promise to spend a lot of time on it. It would be useful if browser implementors could review the draft, consider dropping quirks, give feedback about quirks that can't be dropped, and consider aligning with other implementations for quirks that are here to stay. cheers -- Simon Pieters Opera Software
