*Contact emails* [email protected] *Specification* https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/images.html#available-images
*Summary* Allow same-document available-image reuse to bypass Cache-Control: no-store reload when the same src value is reassigned to an <img> element. Previously, Blink would re-fetch the image even though it was already decoded and available in the document. This aligns with existing Gecko and WebKit behavior. *Blink component* Blink>Loader <https://issues.chromium.org/issues?q=customfield1222907:%22Blink%3ELoader%22> *Web Feature ID* Missing feature *Motivation* Web interop fix. Chrome is the only browser failing the WPT for no-store image reuse on same-src reassignment. Filed by Mozilla. *Initial public proposal* *No information provided* *TAG review* *No information provided* *TAG review status* Not applicable *Risks* *Interoperability and Compatibility* Low. Sites relying on img.src = img.src to force re-fetch of a no-store image returning different content on each request would no longer see the image update. Kill switch feature flag available. *Gecko*: Shipped/Shipping *WebKit*: Shipped/Shipping *Web developers*: No signals *Other signals*: *WebView application risks* Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications? *No information provided* *Debuggability* *No information provided* *Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, ChromeOS, Android, and Android WebView)?* Yes *Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests <https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>?* Yes html/semantics/embedded-content/the-img-element/image-alternate-no-store.window.html *Flag name on about://flags* *No information provided* *Finch feature name* ReuseNoStoreImageOnSameSrcReassignment *Rollout plan* Will ship enabled for all users *Requires code in //chrome?* False *Tracking bug* https://crbug.com/486562295 *Estimated milestones* Shipping on desktop 147 Shipping on Android 147 Shipping on WebView 147 Shipping on iOS 147 *Anticipated spec changes* Open questions about a feature may be a source of future web compat or interop issues. Please list open issues (e.g. links to known github issues in the project for the feature specification) whose resolution may introduce web compat/interop risk (e.g., changing to naming or structure of the API in a non-backward-compatible way). *No information provided* *Link to entry on the Chrome Platform Status* https://chromestatus.com/feature/5206171399094272?gate=4728462755627008 This intent message was generated by Chrome Platform Status <https://chromestatus.com/>. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "blink-dev" group.
