This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
The hc_noderemovechild test claims that it will remove the "first employee". But the code in the JavaScript version at least does this: rootNode = doc.documentElement; childList = rootNode.childNodes; childToRemove = childList.item(1); removedChild = rootNode.removeChild(childToRemove); The documentElement is an <html> element, and its second child is a <body> element, so this test removes the <body> element. This is causing trouble for the Safari team with the XHTML version of the test, which is having trouble reporting results after a <body> element is removed.
