--- Comment #4 from John Gregg <[email protected]> --- The "hidden" attribute is valid HTML5, not a deprecated legacy feature from earlier HTMLs. I am not concerned with how Writer exports into HTML, only how it interprets HTML on input. That is, among Writer's many supported input file formats (raw text, Word doc/docx, etc.) it certainly knows how to import and render HTML5. It knows, for example, to italicize text in the <i> tag, or that <p> encloses a paragraph (however that ends up being represented in its native ODT/ODF format). It comes as an unpleasant surprise, then, that the "hidden" attribute is ignored. If there is some way of hiding text in the native ODT/ODF format, then on import from HTML, the "hidden" attribute should be converted to Writer's native way of suppressing text. I think it would be better for Writer to throw the "hidden" text away entirely, just delete it upon import from HTML, rather than its current behavior of displaying it as if there had been no "hidden" attribute at all. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
