Details

the following input element does not render unless nested inside a form element. Used to render in build 16. input type=text and select elements display correctly. ----------------------------------------------------------- <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en"> <head> </head> <body> <input type="button" value="test" onclick="alert('ah.. you found me')" /> </body> </html>
Very true... IE 5 does this. Is it in the spec? <makes note to self to read HTML 4 spec sometime> Gerv

I doesn't render because it isn't getting into the content model. If I dump the content model I get: docshell=0137EEA0 html@02733208 refcount=3< head@027325B8 refcount=2< > body@0277DF28 refcount=3< > > reassigning

Okay, this is a strict DTD issue. Note: Strict DTD will not be supported in mozilla. This bug should go off once strict DTD is yanked. Btw, I see the button "test" in my tree ( with strict DTD off ). Here is the content model: docshell=01C7BEA0 html@01CBBC58 xmlns=http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml xml:lang=en refcount=3< head@01CBCCC8 refcount=2< > Text@0325BB90 refcount=3<\n> body@0325C138 refcount=3< Text@03394EC0 refcount=3<\n> input@033979EC type=button value=test onclick=alert('ah.. you found me') refcount=4<> Text@033867D0 refcount=3<\n> > >
