Hi WhatWG and friends! I am currently making an AI to create HTML. In the process, I discovered a logical problem: HTML is not clearly defined. Not as far as I know anyway.
A proper definition of HTML would include collections of sample HTML source plus IMAGES of how they look rendered. That, my AI could work with. Also, I think this is very important to have - I vividly remember all those years of fighting with browser inconsistencies and the very undefinedness I am talking about that still exists. (More on my blog at tinybrain.de). Q: Does such a test suite for HTML exist? If not, it is time to create that. Alternatively, what one could create is a virtualized browser. My AI could also learn from that, basically. But a virtualized browser is a complicated piece of software, and there is no proper infrastructure for virtual programs yet (another lack in IT today). So I assume a test suite of sources + images will be easier to make right now. Let's define HTML properly! Cheers from Hamburg, Stefan
