For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Did Not Understand Request Change Description: no spec change Rationale: Could you elaborate on exactly what you mean here? Is this just the PARAM/null thing? Are we sure Java needs this?
* don't instantiate the plugin if the element's document is not in a browsing context or is not fully active * pass the parameters in insertion order * PARAM:null * wait with instantiating the plugin until end tag has been parsed * kill the plugin if the element is removed from the document * whatever else is done for <object> but not for <applet>; I'm sure I've missed something. As for what's needed or not for compat, I'm not sure, but it seems better to use the same rules for both unless web compat requires differences.
