I just said that the validator should reflect the fact <command> is permitted in <head>. ** I would further more argue that, after 7 years - 5 of them within W3C - browsers are picking up. OK, I don't know how deep their support of <command> is - but: * they can't see it as a unknown element, when they (as I said above) keep it in the <head> if you place it there. Which is a form of support. Because, if they had seen it as an unknown element, then they would have spit it out of <head> and placed in the body element. * Note in this regard that IE8 too would keep it the head, becaue IE historically allowed new elements in the <head>. But note that IE9 did not keep it in the <head> - probably because it did not get its HTML5 implementation correct. Whereas IE10 *does* keep <command> in the head - but spits any other unknown element out of <head>. * Thus, what the WHATwg spec says about implementation of <command>, is not entirely correct: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/interactive-elements.html#the-command-element * Meanwhile, the last changes to the command element was, according to HTML4-differences, the 25 May 2011 working draft, so it I don't know how old one actually claim <command> to be: http://www.w3.org/TR/html5-diff/#changes-2011-05-25 -- Configure bugmail: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
