COMMENT A.5: - ERT WG COMMENT: Section "3.15 OBJECTS_OR_SCRIPT" "If the value of the href attribute begins with the "javascript:" scheme, FAIL" At least, href attributes with "#" (or any number of '#') value should also fail as it's a widely used value. A wider definition which discourages any misuse of href values in general would be desirable. - BPWG RESOLUTION: We think that there are valid uses for allowing # as the href, such as a link to the top of the page. - ERT WG RESPONSE: Although being a valid URI, the behaviour of href="#" is not defined. Several user agents have the behaviour describe above, but we think this shouldn't be considered a good practice and the linking to the top of a page should be done using a real (not empty) anchor (fragment ID).

WG Notes: (substantive change) Sean suggests OBJECTS_AND_SCRIPT should warn on a href="#" as it is most commonly used on script links, may have undefined behavior, and doesn't seem to live more appropriately in any other test.

Resolution: RESOLUTION: Under LINK_TARGET_FORMAT check for invalid document internal references and # and warn if present / invalid
