Description Jeff Schiller 2007-09-14 08:44:52 PDT
Safari 3.0.3 Beta

Clicking the link opens a new window (target="_top" should replace the top-most frame as Firefox, Opera and IE+ASV3 do.

Confirmed difference in behavior between Firefox 2.0.0.6 and Opera 9.22 versus a local debug build of WebKit r25545 with Safari 3 Public Beta v. 3.0.3 (522.12.1) on Mac OS X 10.4.10 (8R218).

As part of fixing this, I made sure we passed all the SVG WG test cases.  This one is relevant to this code change, but the test seems wrong:
http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/Test/20061213/htmlEmbedHarness/full-linking-a-07-t.html

specifically:
The bottom-most (blue) arrows links to the same external SVG file, but with xlink:show="replace". Both the left and the right blue arrows should produce the image of the linkingToc-t.svg in a new frame.

The left arrow should not open a new window, as xlink:replace behaves like target="_self" according to the xlink spec.

One remaining question is "who wins?" when you have conflicting attributes, such as target="_self" and xlink:show="new".  Currently I've coded things so that target always wins.

Landed on the feature branch as r25729.

You should be able to verify once the build shows up at:
