(from discussion in bug 4820) Attached is a test matrix for invalid HTML entities with results for several browsers. Apparently, different browsers have little in common here, yet Safari matches none of them. Perhaps, this should be improved.

What a great table. The code for all this is inside htmltokenizer.cpp.

Our goal here is to match the HTML5 spec. How does a WebKit nightly compare to Firefox 4 beta?

Looks like we match Firefox 4 on everything except: &#4294967393; &#18446744073709551713; &#79228162514264337593543950433; &#x100000061;
