Maybe parsing float algorithm should be changed to allow double-precision attributes? Otherwise, these attribute should be float.

I guess Opera and Webkit allows double-precision float for attributes (Gecko doesn't). So, should we change the rules for parsing a floating point number or move back those IDL attributes to the float type? 46034 2 ian 2011-02-25 08:10:29 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment. If you are satisfied with this response, please change the state of this bug to CLOSED. If you have additional information and would like the editor to reconsider, please reopen this bug.

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Accepted Change Description: see diff given below Rationale: Oops, the parsing rules were supposed to have changed to double-precision, except I made a mistake when doing that change. I've updated the spec accordingly. (It's not expected that browsers will have caught up with that change yet, and we might still change it back.)

Check-in comment: oops, forgot to change s/single/double/ here when updating the spec to use double-precision everywhere (see r5373). http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=5914&to=5915 53699 4 mike 2011-08-04 05:16:27 +0000 mass-move component to LC1
