Personally I think it's better than either <picture> or srcset alone. But I don't think it's good enough even so, it still has problems:
* It's verbose (but less-so than <picture>). * It has two attributes that could easily be confused as doing the same job. There's little clear logic as to why they're split, from an authors viewpoint. * It bakes design properties into the mark-up. They will be the wrong breakpoints come any re-design. That last one is killer for me. And I've no idea how to address it either :s -Matt On 28 May 2012 17:23, Mathew Marquis <[email protected]> wrote: > > On May 24, 2012, at 3:58 AM, Florian Rivoal wrote: > >> On Wed, 23 May 2012 21:18:25 +0200, Scott Jehl <[email protected]> wrote: >> >>> With this proposal, could "src" be used on a source element if you don't >>> need the features srcset provides? >>> >>> Or maybe, would that just be equivalent to srcset with a single source >>> listed? >> >> I have no strong preference for src vs srcset with a single source and no >> density >> qualifier, but yes, one of them should be available. >> > > I’m a little uneasy at the silence following Florian’s proposal.
