1128047 - audio element without valid source is not rendered but focusable

Status: NEW

(Core :: Audio/Video: Playback, defect, P3)

Description

[Rodney Rehm]

Attachment: gecko-audio-broken.html

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.10; rv:35.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/35.0
Build ID: 20150108202552

Steps to reproduce:

I added an <audio controls> element to the DOM but gave it an invalid <source>


Actual results:

I did not see the audio element rendered on screen, but the element was focusable and reachable by pressing the tab key


Expected results:

The audio element should stay visible and somehow make clear that doesn't have a valid source to play. This would be in line with the behavior of the video element. (Also the behavior experienced in Chrome)

I have tested this on Mac OS X 10.10 with Nightly 46.0a1 and I can reproduce the problem.

Perhaps we're not doing something to register the element properly in the layout until the source is set?

Likely we won't get to this soon. Help from the layout team is week.
