9495 2010-04-12 06:13:28 +0000 Need links to text syntax in attributes index 2010-10-04 14:27:43 +0000 1 1 1 Unclassified HTML WG pre-LC1 HTML5 spec (editor: Ian Hickson) unspecified All All RESOLVED FIXED http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/index.html#attributes-0 P2 normal --- 1 tj ian ian mike public-html-admin public-html-wg-issue-tracking public-html-bugzilla oldest_to_newest 34762 0 tj 2010-04-12 06:13:28 +0000 In the attributes index table, recommend linking to the text syntax[1] where "Text" appears in the value column (even if it has an asterisk next to it, which should not be included in the link).

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Rejected Change Description: no spec change Rationale: The text syntax is about the serialised syntax, whereas the "text" in that table just means plain text in an attribute in the DOM, which isn't the same. 34928 2 tj 2010-04-13 09:46:08 +0000 Reopening with the same rationale as bug 9493; clearly I was wrong about what should be linked to (thanks for catching that), but _something_ needs to define "text" more clearly; as it is, the user of the spec casts around for more rules. In fact, most of what I wrote in that bug really should have gone here, please see comment #3[1].

Reopening just because of a typo in the "attribute-text" paragraph: << Except where explicitly stated, is no restriction on what text can be specified in such attributes. >> Needs "there" after the comma. (I need to get svn set up so I can generate patches for little things like this.) 34968 5 ian 2010-04-13 22:09:53 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.
