This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Please clarify whether the presence of the sizes attribute on the link element is valid regardless of the rel keywords. (Please note that if you make it keyword-dependent, the registration mechanism needs to support the registration of apple-touch-icon with sizes, so it would be easier not to couple the validity of sizes to the rel keywords.)
mass-moved component to LC1
Can I just couple it to rel=icon? It's ok if new rel values that need sizes="" can't be registered in the wiki but have to be registered in the spec, since they're so rare (one every twenty years so far).
In fact the spec already says "The sizes attribute is used with the icon link type. The attribute must not be specified on link elements that do not have a rel attribute that specifies the icon keyword." If that's not good enough, reopen the bug and we can study this further, but it seems to address the issue you raised. EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
