Hi, In bug 1317937 I intend to unship the feature of <a> elements acting the same way as <area> elements in image maps.
This functionality was specced in HTML 4, but no other browser implemented it and was removed from HTML 5. Timothy (:tnikkel) tried to do it before, but it got blocked on getting telemetry for this (bug 1350532). Given that didn't advance for 8 months, that it blocks (or at least simplifies a lot) longstanding bug 135040, which always bites again and is a nice source of FIXME comments[1], and the fact that this is not implemented anywhere else and is not in any spec anymore, we think it's reasonable to just remove it, and we don't expect any webcompat fallout from it. Let me know if there's any concern about doing this. -- Emilio [1]: http://searchfox.org/mozilla-central/search?q=135040 _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
