547448 - HTML Reference on MDC needs to be finished

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Developer Documentation Graveyard :: General, defect)

Description

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X 10.5; en-US; rv:1.9.1.7) Gecko/20091221 Firefox/3.5.7
Build Identifier: mozilla developer center documentation

I would be happy to contribute to these doc pages as soon as I am more well versed in html; but I am not, which is why I was reading the doc pages, ha ha.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/div

and 

https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/select

are wonky; many other pages are not written.  I will attempt to correct these on my own as soon as I am sure of what I am doing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Just go to https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/select
2.Then go to https://developer.mozilla.org/en/HTML/Element/div
3.Viola!
Actual Results:  
In one page, the language clearly isn't english (I had just started taking a medication, and was worried I was going crazy) and in the other the formatting is irregular.  Kohei (last edited by) probably forgot a </>. 

Expected Results:  
It should have been in english and properly formatted.  In fact, the docs should have been complete, but I will make efforts to rectify that myself.

Thank you, and everyone else working on mozilla development, for the wonderful work you are doing.  Keep it up!

Yeah, the HTML reference on MDC is nowhere near complete right now.

Comment 2

[Florian Scholz (Open Web Docs)]

With the exception of some obsolete or not yet implemented elements, the HTML reference is quite complete now. Is something important missing that is within the scope of this bug?

Comment 3

[Eric Shepherd [:sheppy]]

There are a few elements not yet documented, although they're all obsolete or unimplemented (in Firefox) ones:

command
frame
frameset
isindex
nobr
noframe
rp
rt
ruby

Those still need to be documented, for completeness's sake.
