Note that this does not match what they all implement for HTMLOptionElement#label. 114467 2 ian 2014-11-04 00:40:05 +0000 > Note that this does not match what they all implement for > HTMLOptionElement#label. What do you mean by "HTMLOptionElement#label", exactly? Chrome and Firefox seem to work as specced (modulo treating label="" with the empty string as if the attribute was missing): http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/saved/3285 114471 3 zcorpan 2014-11-04 07:11:24 +0000 Foo#bar is shorthand for Foo.prototype.bar. 114476 4 Ms2ger 2014-11-04 08:56:52 +0000 (In reply to Ian 'Hixie' Hickson from comment #2) > modulo treating label="" with the empty string as if the attribute was missing That's exactly what I filed this bug for, yes. 115870 5 contributor 2014-12-03 21:30:52 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r8868.

I thought you were talking about setter behaviour, but you were talking about the getter behaviour. 115898 8 contributor 2014-12-04 01:25:13 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r8871.
