27757 2015-01-05 21:23:37 +0000 [Shadow]: how is the autofocus attribute supposed to be handled? 2015-05-27 03:02:19 +0000 1 1 1 Unclassified WebAppsWG HISTORICAL - Component Model unspecified PC All RESOLVED MOVED P2 normal --- 26365 28552 1 mail hayato annevk hayato mike public-webapps public-webapps-bugzilla oldest_to_newest 116805 0 mail 2015-01-05 21:23:37 +0000 The section "6.2 Focus Navigation" [1] does not specify how the autofocus attribute [2] is to be handled if set on an element within a ShadowRoot. As of now Chrome and Firefox consider all elements at page load, including the ones in ShadowRoots when looking for an element with autofocus. That, however, is not the behavior I expected from an encapsulated DOM. What I expected is the same behavior the dialog element presents in showModal in steps 8 - 10 [3].

That wouldn't change current meaning, but make things a bit more clear (for authors, I guess) 119515 4 hayato 2015-04-15 06:30:18 +0000 Yes, we can. Looks the autofocus was mentioned at https://github.com/w3c/webcomponents/commit/b9f45ee237536f461a0526c1c0b070ac63c1ce6b. However, there is no mention at Focus Navigation section. We have to fix somehow. 120511 5 hayato 2015-05-27 03:02:19 +0000 Moved to https://github.com/w3c/webcomponents/issues/97
