Description Mark Pilgrim (Google) 2011-04-13 12:12:24 PDT 
Similar to bug 58465, but I'm opening a separate bug for this because I'm not sure if we're wrong. (The spec is unclear on this point, or if the spec is clear, I haven't found the right sentence to prove one way or the other.) Mozilla throws in this case, but WebKit does not, so someone is definitely wrong.

Spec says that several things can be the empty string, but this is not one of them. Compiling patch.

Discussion with SickingJ leads to the conclusion that the spec will be changed to explicitly ALLOW name to be an empty string. Closing this bug.
