Description Anne 2013-02-27 07:10:54 UTC 
The interface has been nuked from Firefox a while ago. It's not needed for web compatibility.

https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29641 is the bug on WebKit.
Comment 1 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2013-04-12 21:29:48 UTC 
Ok, we'll try.

Comment 4 Erik Arvidsson 2013-04-15 21:19:30 UTC 
Just to be clear, the interface for basefont should be HTMLElement (and not HTMLUnknownElement)?
Comment 5 Anne 2013-04-15 21:29:43 UTC 
HTMLUnknownElement seems slightly preferable. Basically only recognizing the token in the parser for it being a void.
