Description explorer09 2012-10-09 04:35:01 UTC 
In section 6.4 Void Elements, I think there are 2 more elements in HTML5 that should be in the list of void elements.

<wbr> and <track>

The content model of these 2 elements are both empty in HTML5, but why are they not in the list? No explanations are given there.

I am asking this because I want to know whether I can use minimised form (<wbr /> <track />) for these elements or not in the polyglot markup.
Comment 1 Eliot Graff 2013-04-08 04:42:23 UTC 
Added the two elements, per this request.

Thanks for catching this.
