In case you consider support of all new HTML5 tags, including <header>, I would be willing to provide a new set of patches: - first patch to rename `CGI#header` to `CGI#http_header` (breaking downward compatibility) - second patch to provide full HTML5 support at once Regards, Marcus =end ---------------------------------------- Feature #6637: Add HTML5 support to CGI https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/6637#change-29677 Author: stomar (Marcus Stollsteimer) Status: Assigned Priority: Normal Assignee: xibbar (Takeyuki Fujioka) Category: Target version: =begin The attached patch adds support for HTML 5, providing the doctype <!DOCTYPE html> and the tag helpers for the new HTML elements (article, section, ...). Changes were made in * `lib/cgi/core.rb' * `lib/cgi/html.rb' Tests were added to * `test/cgi/test_cgi_core.rb' ((*Notice:*)) the new HTML5 `header' element has ((*not*)) been added, because it collides with the already defined CGI#header method that creates the HTTP header block. To avoid unreflected addition of this element, a test has been included to make sure that CGI#header won't break. Detailed list of changes in `html.rb' (in comparison to HTML 4 strict): * doctype changed * new elements added * removed elements: tt, big, acronym * void elements: area, base, br, col, command, embed, hr, img, input, keygen, link, meta, param, source, track, wbr * new elements with optional end tag: optgroup, rt, rp See the Editor's Draft of the HTML5 specification (15 June 2012): ((<URL:http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec/>)). =end -- http://bugs.ruby-lang.org/
