I think adding search to the HTML standard makes more sense overall. The thing I hate about search like this is that they don't work with JS turned off (e.g. terminal browser). Why not just add a JSON search component to HTML itself?
- bastawhiz 5y agoBecause there's no one-size-fits-all solution for search. It's arguable that such a thing wouldn't even suit the needs of a small fraction of folks who were interested in a similar feature. Plus, if it was added to the spec, then Safari users wouldn't be able to use it.
- encryptluks2 5y agoThere is though.. hence why they call them web standards. Nothing I hate more than each website implementing a non-standards way of doing things. If Safari doesn't want to stay current with web standards then so be it. That is their prerogative. If a client-side JSON search component was added to web standards then I have a feeling that eventually they'd have no choice but to adopt.
