Description Mathias Bynens 2013-08-21 18:51:30 CEST

Here’s an example taken from the spec: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/text-level-semantics.html#the-data-element

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <title>Test</title>
    <table sortable>
     <thead> <tr> <th> Game <th> Corporations <th> Map Size
     <tbody>
      <tr> <td> 1830 <td> <data value="8">Eight</data> <td> <data value="93">19+74 hexes (93 total)</data>
      <tr> <td> 1856 <td> <data value="11">Eleven</data> <td> <data value="99">12+87 hexes (99 total)</data>
      <tr> <td> 1870 <td> <data value="10">Ten</data> <td> <data value="149">4+145 hexes (149 total)</data>
    </table>

Currently, http://html5.validator.nu/ throws many errors when this example is entered.

I get only 1 error for the sortable attribute. Sortable tables have been dropped form the spec.
