At least it was mostly copied from Netscape, and source for that is available as Mozilla Classic (from the cancelled Mariner project). I used it to figure out where HTML legacy color parsing come from.
- gsnedders 12y agoSadly, we know that what web compat relies on isn't quite what NN4(-ish) does, so the mere fact that that is available doesn't really help too much. :(
- yuhong 12y agoActually, the same thing is true for HTML legacy color parsing too, but the only difference there is a few lines of code. I think it is these lines that was added (from http://mxr.mozilla.org/classic/source/lib/layout/layimage.c#155 http://mxr.mozilla.org/classic/source/lib/layout/layimage.c#...): if (bytes_per_val > 4) { bytes_per_val = 4; }
- gsnedders 12y agoTable parsing is nowhere near that similar. It's almost certain IE's algorithm is largely different — it just obtains similar results to NN's in most cases.
