Same thing if a worker creates a sub worker. This is similar to how the referrer of a background image linked to from a CSS stylesheet is the URL of the stylesheet, not the URL of a html Document. == Will get fixed with https://github.com/w3c/html/commit/79dfa8d9d8e671dd82f76475052d166de8ccdebb 75481 1 silviapfeiffer1 2012-10-06 10:51:20 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
