Description David Kilzer (:ddkilzer) 2008-04-10 13:24:53 PDT
* SUMMARY
An HTML document containing only an <isindex> tag does not render the <isindex> tag.  (It's also missing from the DOM).

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch Safari/WebKit nightly.
2. Open URL:  data:text/html,%3Cisindex%3E

* RESULTS
No <isindex> element is drawn.  Using Hixie's Live DOM Viewer (see URL on this bug), there is no ISINDEX element in the DOM.

* REGRESSION
Unknown.  Will test on Safari 2.0.4 on Tiger 10.4.11 later.

* NOTES
See also Bug 7139.  :)

Not a regression from Safari 2.0.4 on Tiger 10.4.11--same behavior occurs there.

This will be fixed by the HTML5 TreeBuilder (bug 41123).

Yep.  It's indeed fixed by the HTML5 parser.
