This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
Now that the tree builder is specified to be purely tokenizer push as opposed to being tree builder pull at times, the steps for "noframes", "script", "style", "title" in after head aren't quite right. The steps involve popping the current node (claimed to be head) off the stack as the last step. However, the actions of the previous step have now changed, so this no longer makes sense (the current node won't be head and popping at this stage no longer makes sense). Possible fixes: * Make </head> not pop head, so space characters, comments and "base", "link", "meta", "noframes", "script", "style", "title" after </head> simply get appended to head. * Make "noframes", "script", "style", "title" set a flag that tells the end tag processing for those pop an extra time. (This is what the Validator.nu HTML Parser already does.)
No need for a new flag. Just a test if original mode is 'after head'.
A third possible solution may be to remove the head element from the stack instead of popping it.
Did the last option.
