Subject: [ruby-core:48843] [ruby-trunk - Bug #7110] CGI: Add support for HTML5 <header> tag


Issue #7110 has been updated by stomar (Marcus Stollsteimer).


I really think for the proposed patch 2.0 would be the best place.

@zzak:

I can not judge how big the impact of renaming CGI#header would be.

BUT: Your proposal would mean that the <header> tag would have to be treated differently to all the other HTML tags (#h1, #form, #br, ...), which for the users of the tag maker would be a fairly unexpected behaviour.

Personally, I would prefer consistent behaviour for all tags.

In case the decision goes with introducing a special method for this single tag, I would suggest #header_element (maybe #header_tag) instead of #html_header, which to me rather signifies the doctype, html meta data, etc.

=begin
These patches add the <header> tag to CGI's HTML generation methods, finalizing the support of HTML5, see #6637.

Note that the old CGI#header method is renamed to CGI#http_header. CGI#header now generates a HTML5 header element.
