Have a node that contains only text. Add a DOMCharacterDataModified event listener 2. Change the node's contents using innerHTML What is the expected result? DOMCharacterDataModified does not fire. The W3 spec (http://www.w3.org/TR/DOM-Level-2-Events/events.html) says, "Fired after CharacterData within a node has been modified but the node itself has not been inserted or deleted." I didn't think innerHTML would adjust the existing textNode; I thought it would replace it with a completely different node. What happens instead? DOMCharacterDataModified does fire. I made this jsFiddle to demonstrate: http://jsfiddle.net/newtang/kysTm/15/ and created this StackOverflow question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6528511/domcharacterdatamodified-not-firing-consistently-across-firefox-and-chrome-who-i It appears that Firefox is handling this situation correctly, but ultimately, I'm more interested in consistency across the browsers. 1503183 1 lforschler 2019-02-06 09:18:31 -0800 Mass move bugs into the DOM component. 1888372 2 ahmad.saleem792 2022-08-02 06:18:35 -0700 Following is output of all browsers: *** Safari 15.6 on macOS 12.5 *** DOMSubtreeModified DOMNodeInserted DOMSubtreeModified *** Chrome Canary 106 *** DOMSubtreeModified DOMNodeInserted DOMSubtreeModified *** Firefox Nightly 105 *** DOMNodeInserted _________ I am not clear on web-spec but this is output across all browsers, please mark this bug according. If it is bug and Firefox behavior is aligned with web-spec then it can be changed to "New" status but if Safari is correct then it can be marked as "RESOLVED CONFIGURATION CHANGED" or something.
