Check-in comment: Clarify what 'failed' means in importScripts(). https://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=8873&to=8874 116883 3 annevk 2015-01-07 08:51:12 +0000 That's almost certainly not what's implemented though. HTTP 404 error is executed for scripts. Only actual network errors cause failure. 116930 4 ian 2015-01-08 18:45:16 +0000 We should fix that for importScripts(), unless someone relies on it. 116944 5 annevk 2015-01-09 06:27:16 +0000 Why? What's the advantage? And what set of status codes should we accept instead post-redirect? 200-299? 116979 6 ian 2015-01-09 23:35:06 +0000 The advantage is just to reduce the amount of script that gets executed when the author isn't expecting script to be executed. Just like honouring MIME types or magic signatures. 123270 7 annevk 2015-09-22 06:55:52 +0000 https://github.com/whatwg/html/pull/166
