User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.6a) Gecko/20031030 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Win98; en-US; rv:1.6a) Gecko/20031030 The example URL shows that the <style> element has been moved to the <head> of the document. This causes problems in some applications, such as the HTMLArea engine (http://dynarch.com/htmlarea/example.html), which relies on the DOM matching the source's described layout. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. go to the mentioned example URL Actual Results: the page demonstrated that the <style> element has been moved from the <body> without this action being requested. Expected Results: Mozilla should have left the structure of the document as it was described in the source.
I think/hope this is going to be marked as either INVALID or WONTFIX (<http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/present/styles.html#h-14.2.3>). Especially since I heard Mozilla supports too many quirks already.
INVALID. In HTML, the <style> element isn't valid in <body>, only in <head>. This is true even if you insert it after the load completes.
