Description Jesse Costello-Good 2006-11-17 09:56:27 PST
For parity with Firefox:

var req = new XMLHttpRequest();
req.open("GET", "test.xml", false);
req.overrideMimeType("text/xml");
req.send(null);

var doc = req.responseXML;
assertEquals("utf-8", doc.xmlEncoding.toLowerCase());
assertEquals("1.0", doc.xmlVersion);
assertEquals("yes", doc.xmlStandalone);

Where test.xml is:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?>
<data/> 
Comment 1 Alexey Proskuryakov 2006-11-17 10:28:59 PST
Once we get xmlEncoding, we should start using it in XMLHttpRequest ("If the data is a Document, it MUST be serialized using the encoding given by data.xmlEncoding, if specified and supported, or UTF-8 otherwise").
Comment 2 Jesse Costello-Good 2006-11-17 22:49:56 PST
XMLDocument.cloneNode() seems to always return null.
Comment 3 Alexey Proskuryakov 2006-11-17 23:36:28 PST
Could you please file a separate bug for cloneNode()? It isn't related to XML declaration properties, so it's unlikely that they will be implemented/fixed together.
Comment 4 Alexey Proskuryakov 2006-11-19 06:52:03 PST
Filed <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=361198> for xmlEncoding behavior in Firefox, which seems wrong to me. XMLHttpRequest behavior isn't clear either - Firefox doesn't do what the spec says, and I'm not sure what we should do; asked on the webapi WG mailing list.

The patch doesn't include changes to dom/xhtml/level3/core results - svn-create-patch chokes on these, probably because of the UTF-16 test that I re-added.

One thing I don't like in this patch is that I had to add wk_ucfirst to both JS and ObjC generators - I couldn't make it work when it was in CodeGenerator.pm (calling it as $codeGenerator->wk_ucfirst resulted in something weird like "CodeGenerator->HASH(...) being printed to the output). Leaving this to someone more proficient with Perl for future cleanup.

Thanks to the Safari team for being so responsive regarding requests for better
advanced AJAX support. Safari is quickly becoming a 1st class AJAX platform.

Mass moving XML DOM bugs to the "DOM" Component.
