You implemented both. .URL should be dropped. If .URL continues to be supported, content may be authored that relies on it existing, which means it will be harder for you to remove it the later you remove it, and will cause incompatibility problems for other browsers. 540408 1 ap 2012-01-23 00:14:37 -0800 It's just a mistake in the specs that URL got renamed to url. Totally inconsistent and unhelpful, given that this happened after implementations shipped based on earlier spec versions. 540413 2 Ms2ger 2012-01-23 00:45:23 -0800 Then you should have complained at the time, not implemented both. That's just harmful to all of us, and frankly irresponsible. 540595 3 ap 2012-01-23 09:15:21 -0800 Complain like this <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/1129.html>? 541131 4 zcorpan 2012-01-23 22:24:04 -0800 Yes. Had you complained a bit earlier, maybe we would have got our way (I also preferred "URL" at first, but didn't get any backup except from Hixie). I then gave in and Opera switched to "url", and the spec changed. *Then* you complained, but evidently it wasn't persuasive enough (or it was too late) to convince us or Mozilla to change back, so "url" is what it is. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/0332.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webapps/2010AprJun/0563.html 1954976 5 annevk 2023-05-12 08:05:16 -0700 Bug 248787 and bug 248781 took care of this.
