Hi everyone,
I rewrote the Navigation section of Window Object 1.0 to be painfully
exacting about the conformance requirements, including detailed
algorithms for performing navigations, etc. I believe most of this is
technically accurate given my testing, but most of it is open to
revision based on results from the test suite.
I also added in History since there was consensus that it should be
added, in fact I put it in the same section since it had to rely on
many of the same definitions and algorithms.
The main problem with the new text is that it is really really dry.
Lots of lists of steps and function-like syntax, not much friendly
prose. But I think navigation actually is quite complicated, and it
takes a fair amount of detail to specify it in a truly interoperable
way.
Anyway, comments welcome even though there are still a handful of
pieces missing. Let me know especially if the text is hard to
understand or appears to overconstrain implementations.
Regards,
Maciej
