Visit the xhtml page at http://www.battlenet.com.cn/ or http://inputtools.appspot.com/main.py 2. In the address bar, type: "javascript:alert(document.activeElement);" Expected: The alert dialog tells document.activeElement is not undefined. Actual: The alert dialog tells "undefined". 432182 1 dominicc 2011-07-05 03:12:17 -0700 document.activeElement and document.all are defined on HTML documents, see for example: <http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#dom-document-activeelement> <http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#dom-document-all> XHTML documents are not HTML documents (open the web inspector on one of those pages and look at document.constructor, for example, and compare it with the document.constructor of a HTML page such as this one.) So I think it is correct for document.activeElement and document.all to be undefined in an XHTML page. 432329 2 ap 2011-07-05 10:50:20 -0700 This is incorrect. All documents in an HTML5 compliant engine must implement HTMLDocument interface, see <http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/#documents-in-the-dom>. 504742 3 fddima 2011-11-17 04:28:47 -0800 I agree with Alexey. Even more - now activeElement it is part of partial Document interface. And it is blocker for custom UI toolkits to use XHTML instead of HTML. 662890 4 sonny.piers 2012-07-04 05:33:41 -0700 Any update on this? 734660 5 bedney 2012-10-04 07:08:09 -0700 XHTML5 is the XML formulation of HTML5 and is being used out there. It'd be nice to get this fixed. Anything I can do to help? (I'm not a C programmer, but I can write tests, etc.).
