Description joe 2010-11-20 09:52:49 UTC 
Sorry, didn't know what component or severity to use.

HTML5 validation fails when a style element contains html comments and the following text: "empty-" (as in the CSS property "empty-cells".

The following is a valid document that will fail:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8"/>
<title>Christina Hardyment - Author and Journalist</title>
<style>
<!-- 
table { empty-cells:hide }
-->
</style>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>

The example document no longer fails, so I'm assuming this has been fixed at some point.
