This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
This was was cloned from bug 15180 as part of operation convergence. Originally filed: 2011-12-14 12:48:00 +0000 Original reporter: Henry S. Thompson <ht@inf.ed.ac.uk> ================================================================================ #0 Henry S. Thompson 2011-12-14 12:48:07 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Split off from https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=14689 per Comment 3. When an XML document is processed, but _no_ stylesheet PI is present and the root element is not 'html', existing practice is to produce a default indented tree view of the XML itself. It probably doesn't make sense to _require_ this, but it would be good if somewhere in section "Page load processing model for XML files" the 'other XML, no stylesheet' case was explicitly called out, and such default behaviour allowed. ================================================================================ #1 Julian Reschke 2011-12-14 13:38:48 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This obviously should *allow* UAs to process a stylesheet link header field. ================================================================================ #2 Henry S. Thompson 2011-12-14 15:09:07 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thanks Julian -- yes, I should have said, since CSSOM already covers the Link header case (along with basic xml-stylesheet stuff) "When an XML document is processed, but no stylesheets are associated with it per "6.3 Style Sheet Association" in CSSOM (http://dev.w3.org/csswg/cssom/#style-sheet-association) and the root element is not 'html', . . ." ================================================================================ #3 contributor@whatwg.org 2012-01-28 18:29:01 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Checked in as WHATWG revision r6928. Check-in comment: copypasta http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=6927&to=6928 ================================================================================ #4 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2012-01-28 18:29:59 +0000 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Apologies, that was intended for bug 15177. ================================================================================
Yeah I should just spec all the stuff I defined when I wrote the docs for how Mozilla and WebKit should implement this.
Specifically, my intent is to spec this: http://hixie.ch/tests/evil/xml/
Checked in as WHATWG revision r7525. Check-in comment: Allow XML documents to be rendered as DOM trees if they're not being used by a script or something. http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=7524&to=7525
