More from Hixie on how different browsers handle the DOM
"Who would have thought that you would find Heisenberg-like quantum effects in an HTML parser. I mean, I knew they were obscure, but this is just taking the biscuit.
The problem is I now have to determine which of these four options to make the other three browsers implement (that is, which do I put in the spec). What do you think is the most likely to be accepted by the others? As a reminder, the options are incestual elements that can be their own uncles, elements who have secret lives in the rendering engine, elements that change their mind about who their parents are half-way through their childhood, and quantum elements whose parents change depending on whether you observe their birth or not." -- Hixie
