That's fairly non-specific, unless you really mean that you don't want "A" lowercased. > ISTM that the 3rd/4th placed hyphens were banned so the domain name > system had an extension mechanism, and that was used for IDNA (xn--).

I don't think it's that big, there's plenty of other things disallowed that we should always be able to find something, if it comes to that. I ended up doing some more work on this and created a bunch of tests and filed various browser bugs. Not applying ToASCII to ASCII-only input is its own can of worms, due to input such as "xn--a" then round-tripping poorly. https://github.com/whatwg/url/issues/267 has the relevant details and pointers. -- https://annevankesteren.nl/ _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
