Hi All,
I've been looking through the spec for clarification on whether URIs can
be used inside the name= attribute on form elements:
<input type="text" name="http://ex.org/ns#name"...
in addition the following syntax:
name="uri[uri]"
Any clarification?
The <input name> attribute is described in
http://whatwg.org/html#attr-fe-name where the only conformance
requirement is:
"If the attribute is specified, its value must not be the empty string."
and I don't believe there are any other restrictions on it, so any URI
(and any other string) except "" is allowed. (You might want to also
avoid the names "isindex" and "_charset_" since they have special
processing behaviour in certain cases, though.)
