Description gyrobo 2009-03-27 20:09:48 CET

The Validator.nu HTML Parser reports an error when it encounters an optgroup element containing a standard attribute like ID, CLASS, LANG, etc.

These attributes should be valid for all elements.

Thanks for catching this. The cause was just an oversight -- I suspect probably a regression due to some patch I submitted that changed the optgroup attribute model.

Anyway, it's fixed now in the source repository:
http://svn8.cvsdude.com/vvc/whattf/syntax?view=revision&revision=391

It may be a few days before that fix actually gets deployed on validator.nu

Comment 3 Michael[tm] Smith 2009-03-30 16:09:25 CEST

tested with latest v.nu deployment, and test case passes, so moving this to resolved/fixed
