Description Oskar Larsson H 2008-12-19 22:31:59 UTC 
I get the errors "Attribute action not allowed on element body at this point." and "Attribute name not allowed on element body at this point."
But in my code body has no attributes.
Here is the (UTF-8 without BOM) code I tried to validate as HTML5 (without quotes):


"<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
	<head>
		<title>The most destructive weapon ever!!!</title>
		<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
	</head>
	<body>
		<div style="text-align: center;">
			<h1>rickroll.nu - Videos</h1><br>

			<h2>The most destructive weapon ever!!!</h2><br><object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="355" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/8aJjMOy-Ops&amp;hl=sv&amp;fs=1"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8aJjMOy-Ops&amp;hl=sv&amp;fs=1"></object>		</div>
	</body>
</html>"

This seems to happen on a very irregular basis with the html5 engine. 

I restart it on a regular basis, which lowers the likeliness of this bug, somehow.

I haven't seen this bug bite in a few weeks, so changing to "worksforme".
