Ruby is not used only for furigana/yomigana. I know one example from a very popular Japanese novel: <ruby>赤眼の魔王<rt>ルビーアイ</rt></ruby> This is not the only example. I'm confident we could find many case from some Japanese novels. Probably your next word is "It is not typical." or "Statistics, please.". But unlike Xidorn Quan, I'm not interested in what WHATWG people are doing because I know they are not serious about ruby at all. Feel free to mess around with the ruby spec. > So as long as the spec is going to require UAs to resort to magic > behavior, I think the magic could instead just be "autohide any > ruby annotations for kana characters". How to determine what ruby annotation corresponds to what base character if the character count does not match? (Again, I'm not interested in your answer. I know whatever case the WHATWG spec cannot deal with is not "typical".) -- vyv03...@nifty.ne.jp _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
