Description Stephen Gornick 2010-05-10 07:41:36 UTC
If the autobuffer is not allowed, then why does the output list autobuffer as an attribute?


Testing HTML5

=======================================================
Line 8, Column 115: Attribute autobuffer not allowed on element audio at this point.
" src="http://www.joshwoodward.com/mp3/JoshWoodward-BorderBlaster.mp3"></audio>

Element-specific attributes for element audio:
Global attributes
src
autobuffer
autoplay
loop
controls

Trouble attaching with original report.

The cause of this was that the validator.nu (HTML-checking) backend had a stale copy of the HTML5 spec. I've updated it now and pushed the change to:

http://qa-dev.w3.org:8888/

So if you re-test there, I think you'll find that the autobuffer attribute is no longer listed as a valid attribute (it has been removed from the spec).
