| Summary | 1788: Support HTML.next and ECMAScript.next (idea staging issue) | ||||
| Description | This issue discusses assorted functionality from HTML and JavaScript standards, or proposed standards, that are not yet available for us to deploy. Once available either 2005 should be updated, or a new issue created. ~~~~ Context menus (see 2442 and https://www.sitepoint.com/whats-new-in-html-5-1/) <details> and <summary> elements for use with Comcode 'hide' tag (see https://www.sitepoint.com/whats-new-in-html-5-1/) Allow new form elements or parameters in fields and forms APIs, e.g. for 'month' inputs Use screenshot API for rendering block widgets in the WYSIWYG editor (i.e. a block would show as a screenshot of how it looks, without all that HTML dumped inside the editor) Tie into native syntax highlighting for 'code' Comcode tag, without need for Geshi addon (see https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/next#Syntax_highlighting_for_.3Ccode.3E_elements) Use native WYSIWYG for quick reply (low-bloat, fast, but simple upgrade over textarea) (see https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/next#.3Ctextarea_type.3D.22wysiwyg.22.3E) Use Combobox in place of our own manual one (see https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/next#ComboBox) Mark up quote/cite attributions correctly in Comcode output (see https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/next#Attribution_element_for_blockquote.2C_q_and_cite) Mark up locations using new element (see https://www.w3.org/wiki/HTML/next#.3Clocation.3E_element_.28like_.29_for_expressing_geo_information.2C_eg_with_attributes_lat.2C_long.2C_altitude) Default function parameters (see https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/default_parameters). Other features of ECMAScript.next that improves our code standards (as legacy JS code is always messy and we want to do what we can to clean it up). ~~~~ We won't be using TypeScript/Babel/CoffeeScript/Dart - it's very important to not make webmaster-life/hosting difficult by being early adopters of complex stacks. | ||||
