[Gnash-dev] Testcases needed for html edittext

[dolphinling]

I'd like to try implementing html support in edittext. Alexis' SWF Reference has 
a section on what's supported by the proprietary player: 
http://sswf.sourceforge.net/SWFalexref.html#tag_defineedittext

However, it doesn't say what the propriety player does with invalid texts. If we 
want compatibility, that's a very important thing to know.

So does anyone know where I could find out what the proprietary player does 
with, say, an unclosed <i> tag, or misnested tags, like 
<i>text<b>text</i>text</b> ?

If there's nowhere online already, I'd be happy to make up a big list of things 
to be tested (this would be a VERY big list... it's amazing how many ways HTML 
can be invalid). However, I'd need someone else to make the actual tests and run 
them, since I don't know how to use any swf creation software.




A small sample of the TYPES of things I'd need tested:

<i unfinished tag</i>
<i>unclosed i element
<i>mis-<b>nested</i> tags</b>
<i><b>unclosed element inside closed element</i> more text
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/";><li>list in a hyperlink</li></a>
<a href=http://www.gnu.org/software/gnash/>unquoted attribute with
non-alphanumeric chars</a>
<i>close tag for non-open element</b></i>
<xx>invalid element</xx>
<i><xx>invalid element in italics</xx></i>
<xx><i>italics in invalid element</i></xx>
