Specification: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/comms.html Multipage: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/#living-standard-—-last-updated-[date:-01-jan-1901] Complete: https://html.spec.whatwg.org/#living-standard-—-last-updated-[date:-01-jan-1901] Referrer: Comment: Dear diary, I think this website is wrong by claiming that last update was in the year 1901. Posted from: 94.220.132.229 User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_10_1) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/39.0.2171.71 Safari/537.36
Which Web site?
They are referring to how the id of the last updated header on every page of the HTML spec is "living-standard-—-last-updated-[date:-01-jan-1901]" <h2 id="living-standard-—-last-updated-[date:-01-jan-1901]" class="no-num no-toc">Living Standard — Last Updated <span class="pubdate">8 January 2015</span></h2>
IDs are opaque strings. They don't claim anything. Changing the ID would break links (e.g. the link in this bug).
I've changed the ID. If the ID is missing, you go to the top of the page, which is basically where this header is anyway.
Checked in as WHATWG revision r8891. Check-in comment: Minor fixes: make the ID for the <h2> saner, make the ID for the drag event section saner, fix some IDL syntax error https://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=8890&to=8891
