This <datalist> element's content model says ----Quote---- > Either: phrasing content. > Or: Zero or more option elements. ---- So if I read it correctly, the element cannot contain BOTH phrasing content and <option> elements. And this will contradict the statement saying that it can be intermixed. ----Quote---- > The contents of the element represents fallback content for legacy user > agents, intermixed with option elements that represent the predefined > options. ---- Maybe the content model should be changed to something like this: Either: phrasing content. Or: Zero or more option elements. Or both.
