This is an archived snapshot of W3C's public bugzilla bug tracker, decommissioned in April 2019. Please see the home page for more details.
In the algorithm for Safe Passing of Structured Data (2.8.5), the spec has the following lines: ↪If input is an Object object Let output be a newly constructed empty Object object. In the second line, the reference to "Object" is a hyperlink that targets the HTMLObjectElement. My guess is that this is just a mistake and does not imply that HTMLObjectElements should be cloneable via this algorithm. Please clarify this point if indeed HTMLObjectElements should be cloneable, or remove the hyperlink otherwise. Thanks.
