Description Travis Leithead [MSFT] 2015-08-06 20:53:06 UTC 
Edge (soon) and Chrome will allow <template> in <frameset>, whereas the spec currently forces the tag to be ignored.
Comment 1 Anne 2015-09-04 11:18:00 UTC 
This sounds like a bad idea.
Comment 3 Dominic Cooney 2015-09-04 18:21:34 UTC 
Anne, what is a bad idea and why? Do you have any context on why this changed when merging templates into HTML?
Comment 4 Anne 2015-09-04 19:38:57 UTC 
Probably best to ask Ian. Making <frameset> parsing more complicated doesn't seem worth the effort however.
Comment 5 Hayato Ito 2015-09-07 04:20:12 UTC 
I think Blink can change the behavior if the current spec is what we can agree on.
I'd like to wait for the conclusion of this discussion.
Comment 6 Ian 'Hixie' Hickson 2015-09-07 05:01:04 UTC 
<frameset> only allows <frameset>, <frame>, and <noframe>. The spec seems pretty clear about this. Without a really, really good reason I don't think we should change it.
Comment 7 Simon Pieters 2015-09-08 05:40:24 UTC 
In particular, since <frameset><script> drops the script, it seems most sensical to drop <template> also. Framesets are non-conforming so there's no use case.
Comment 8 Travis Leithead [MSFT] 2015-09-09 16:36:53 UTC 
OK, I've also filed a bug to remove Edge support for this scenario. Thanks all. (ref: VSO4512370)
