I'm of the opinion that we should use exactly one attribute for this feature. The thing is, srcN isn't a list, it's a list of lists. Consider the following srcN for a fixed-width image with art direction: <img src-1="(min-width: 640px) 0.5x ph...@0.5x.jpg, 1x ph...@1x.jpg, 2x ph...@2x.jpg" src-2="0.5x photo-c...@0.5x.jpg, 1x photo-c...@1x.jpg, 2x photo-c...@2x.jpg"> I guess one could combine it all into one attribute, e.g. by introducing "||" as an 3rd separator, in addition to the existing "," and ";". For example: <img srcset="(min-width: 640px) 0.5x ph...@0.5x.jpg, 1x ph...@1x.jpg, 2x ph...@2x.jpg || 0.5x photo-c...@0.5x.jpg, 1x photo-c...@1x.jpg, 2x photo-c...@2x.jpg”> I assume authors would just create a new line for each list. That is basically what you do with src-1 and src-2 as well in your example. Writing both beyond each other wouldn’t be very helpful for readability either. I personally do not see where authors would really care if the lists are in two attributes or one. It seems rather a matter of taste or even believe. The point is that srcset can be extended to support more as you suggest in your example. Greetings, Dirk But that seems rather harder to read... - R.

The parsing aspect isn't particularly new - parsing data-* attributes presents the same problem. You just need to filter the list of attributes on the element to look for things with a src- prefix. I've heard direct feedback from Yoav, implementing in Blink, that it's not a big problem. Just because it was not a big problem in one engine, it doesn't mean it won't be in other engines. If we're supporting src-N attributes in WebKit, I'd like to see N to have a small upper bound; e.g. 10. so that we can enumerate all parsed attributes statically at the compilation time. Out of curiosity, what would be the benefits of such a restriction? We're considering to implement an optimization that takes the advantage of parsed attributes being a finite set at the compilation time. Having this feature will make it much harder to implement such an optimization. Note that data-* attributes don't need to be parsed since it doesn't synchronously update Element's internal states. - R. Niwa Will setting the limit on the number of possible attributes at 99 still enable that optimization? Many people (on the RICG's IRC and on Blink-dev) feel that setting the limit to 9, even if it'd be enough today, leaves fairly little space for future evolution. Setting it to some random number between 10 and 99 feels arbitrary to me. So, will 99 be OK with you? _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org<mailto:webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org> https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev _______________________________________________ webkit-dev mailing list webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org<mailto:webkit-dev@lists.webkit.org> https://lists.webkit.org/mailman/listinfo/webkit-dev
