Bug 4391 – layout-tests/dom/html/level2/html/HTMLBaseElement01 and HTMLBaseElement02 fail

• Component: DOM
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Curt Arnold]

The test document used in the mentioned tests contained a BASE element which caused the relative 
URL's used to load the test framework and script to fail to resolve since the effective base URL was 
"about:blank".  In addition, HTMLBaseElement02 had additional relative URLs to images that were also 
affected and unnecessary to the tests.

The bugs have been logged to the W3C Bugzilla (http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?
id=1840 and http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=1841) and the fixes have been 
committed to the W3C CVS.

The attached tarball includes replacements for the two test files.  These should be identical to the tests 
as generated from a current snapshot of the W3C CVS with the exception of the call to 
layoutTestController.dumpAsText that was brought over from the WebKit modifications to selfhtml.js.

HTMLBaseElement01.js and HTMLBaseElement02.js should be removed as they are no longer used.  The 
corresponding -expected files should be updated by removing the files and running run-webkit-tests 
to regenerate them.
