Hi, Jonathan- Jonathan Chetwynd wrote (on 7/29/08 2:04 AM): > > Your earlier emails do not appear to meet the needs, as if height and > width are not specified, what else would identify the checkerboard area? You clearly haven't read the proposed wording, which I've pointed you at twice before now: "If no adequate fallback content is supplied, the user agent should provide a placeholder rectangle or image with the position and dimensions specified by the element's attributes, if specified, *or custom dimension otherwise*, and the name of the invalid resource as visible text or as a tooltip." So, my proposal is that if there are no stated dimensions, the browser renders the filename with a painted area big enough to surround the text. Others disagree that anything at all should render, but we are still cleaning up the proposal. > I don't appreciate your tone, my email was clearly addressed to erik, > and in response to his email. I'm not overly concerned which of the SVG WG members you were addressing. This is a public list, and anyone (even *gasp* SVG WG members!) is free to respond to any message. You take great liberties with this policy yourself, so please stop calling into question the liberty of others to do the same. My message was clear, concise, and polite, and it addressed your issue. I pointed out the effort we are going to to address your concern. What part of my "tone" didn't you appreciate? FWIW, it is disrespectful not to read directed materials before posting; I make a point of following the links you provide, and ask that you extend the same courtesy to others on this list. To do otherwise wastes everyone's time. [1] http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.2T/master/linking.html#unresolved-resources Regards- -Doug Schepers W3C Team Contact, WebApps, SVG, and CDF
