Given the new parsing rules for comments (all those internal discussions...) I was trying to write some testcases for how they are defined now.
# <p><!-- -- -->PASS<!--></p> However, from the specification it is not entirely clear what should happen with <!--></p>. Well, perhaps it is, but then I'd like that to be changed. If we take the problematic snippet: # <!--></p> It seems that per <http://whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#marked> "<!--" starts the comment. It seems that per <http://whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#comment> all characters that follow and are not a dash have to become part of the comment. Is that correct? So if I would modify the testcase to say: # <p><!-- -- -->PASS<!--></p>FAIL And directly after "FAIL" it is EOF (or a few end tags later) it would never show up, right? Given that most browsers show "FAIL" or "<!-->FAIL" for: # <p><!-->FAIL</p> A change might be in order. Or perhaps someone explaining to me what I did wrong when reading the specification. -- Anne van Kesteren <http://annevankesteren.nl/>
