I believe we can allow arbitrary content to go fullscreen, along the lines of what Robert O'Callahan has proposed on this list, if we impose sufficient restrictions to mitigate the above risks. In my opinion, the following measures would likely be sufficient: A) Have a distinctive

[whatwg] Sortable Tables

2010-07-01 Thread Christoph Päper
It’s a common task outside HTML to sort tables by one or more of its columns. There does seem interest among web content providers in making tables client-side sortable since there are several Javascript solutions to do just that, eg. http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Sorting,

One part of (2) [well, debatably part, but related to video streaming] is the lack of visibility into stream behavior. I can't ask the video element questions about dropped frames, bitrate, etc. This is incredibly useful in Flash for getting streaming feedback, and means I really don't know how

That would be great. I guess it's unclear to me how the UIs would differ for video.ogv#t=40,50 and video.ogv#t=40 In particular it seems strange to me that video.ogv#t=40 represents the whole range from the selected point to the end of the video, given that most commonly when wanting to point

Glad to see my post spurred some good discussion - I'll try to address topic by topic below, but one of the great points made is that some of the functionality YouTube needs from browsers probably doesn't belong in the HTML5 spec (e.g. streaming, content protection). I'm happy to take those
