The size attribute, if specified, must have a value that is a valid non-negative integer greater than zero. If the multiple attribute is present, then the size attribute's default value is 4. If the multiple attribute is absent, then the size attribute's default value is 1." I have attached a few test cases. They all pass if a size is specifically set, but all seem to report 0 if size is set to an invalid value or not set at all. Seems to me that the spec says the default should be 1. Either all browsers need to change their implementations, or the spec needs to define the default value as 0 instead of 1. 38048 1 ian 2010-08-27 23:09:07 +0000 EDITOR'S RESPONSE: This is an Editor's Response to your comment.

For more details, see this document: http://dev.w3.org/html5/decision-policy/decision-policy.html Status: Accepted Change Description: see diff given below Rationale: I've added a clarifying statement to the spec, but the spec was correct — you were testing the IDL attribute, which is defined separately (and has no default). 38050 2 contributor 2010-08-27 23:13:29 +0000 Checked in as WHATWG revision r5380.
