• Resolution: FIXED
• Component: WebKit Website

http://webkit.org/ is missing link to key resource for new WebKit contributors / developers. Here is a link to WebKit documentation by Apple, this should be linked, probably in the Documentation section:

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/DisplayWebContent/DisplayWebContent.html

I don't think this is the file you meant to attach. This is not a patch.

[Jack Wootton]

Prior to this patch file being submitted I was
advised the only way I could request the website be updated was to
raise a bug and attach a patch file.  The conversation acting as a
precursor to this patch file is fully available on the webkit mailing
list.

Jack, you need to create a patch to the HTML file that you want changed.  Describing the change using plain text is not acceptable.  This will require that you check out the "source" for the WebKit site, modify the HTML, then run "svn diff" to create the patch.

Thanks for being so patient, Jack.  I'm going to mark this is as reviewed and land it with a slight change.
