176115 - document.writeln, document.cookie fail in XHTML11

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 111514

(Core :: DOM: Events, defect)

Description

[Niklas Dougherty]

document.write and document.cookie (possibly other methods as well) do not work
in files served as application/xhtml+xml. I can't find any information about
obsoleting these methods in DOM2 HTML (which is targeted at XHTML 1.0 and thus
should work fine with XHTML 1.1); they are listed in the HTMLDocument section.

The JS Console says there are no such functions.

Attachment: Test case

This file's javascript works in a text/html framework, but not in
application/xhtml+xml.

Comment 2

[Boris Zbarsky [:bzbarsky]]

That's because we don't even create an HTMLDocument for application/xhtml+xml. 
We create a normal Document.
