In DOM4, all nodes have a document at all times. DocumentType nodes can now be moved across document boundaries so that the node can be added to a Document after being created. Firefox stable and since recently Blink already follow DOM4 here while IE10 does not (yet).

I don't think there is any compatibility issue with this. 922121 2 eoconnor 2013-08-28 11:26:30 -0700 SGTM. 922133 3 ap 2013-08-28 11:50:09 -0700 This is just crazy. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 99244 ***
