@dmsnell dmsnell commented Oct 20, 2023

Trac ticket: Core-60215

Adds support to the HTML Processor for the following elements, enabling the handling of list elements in HTML:

  • UL, OL, LI
  • DT, DL, DD

Previously, the HTML Processor would bail when encountering any of these tags. Now it will properly handle them and their complicated rules.

  • Add comment at top of HTML Processor indicating new tag support.
  • Needs a comprehensive suite of tests due to the complicated nature of list rules.
  • Add docblocks to new tests.

I ran the suite from #5794 against this PR and this case fails:

|             "a"

Here's the failure:

I'll see if I can figure out the test failure. My previous comment was wrong (the expect/actual were inverted), I've updated it.

I've rebased this.

I pushed a test and a fix for the issue the html5lib tests found. I believe has_element_in_specific_scope had a flipped boolean when it finds a tag in the termination list. Just like if it reaches HTML, the search ends without having found a the tag in scope and the search ends in failure.

This fixes the tests.

I'm happy with this, I think it's ready to ship. We've given it a good amount of testing.

Thanks!

I believe the > is included to indicate it's a quote. These are quoting the HTML standard directly.

Confirming what @sirreal wrote. These are linked to the HTML5 living spec by words to make it easier to search, and the > is attempting to indicate that it's a quote. It also corresponds to every block within the step_in_body() function.

I'm happy to entertain suggestions to improve the linking, but I don't want to make it more difficult for people to cross-reference the spec by removing these quotes. Unfortunately the spec doesn't add anchors to each of these sections so there's no clear link (which is one of the original reasons I added the quotes, beyond the obvious that it puts the intention of the spec at the front in the code).

   Adds support for list elements in the HTML Processor.

This patch adds the blanket exclusion from the HTML API compatability
layer after they were removed and started blocking updates from Core.

The PHP files in the compatability layer are merged and maintained in
the Core repo and all changes or updates need to happen first in Core
and then be brought over to Gutenberg as built files. From Gutenberg's
perspective they are no different than NPM packages.
