Details

The onerror attribute is marked as deprecated. However, I don't understand why.

Image loading errors sections does not contain any notes about it. Internet searches also came to nothing. This is confusing.

@teoli2003 as per https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/Img#browser_compatibility the onerror is marked as deprecated for the img element - can you answer why? I'm asking you because you added this data in https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/pull/388

It is also shown as deprecated in caniuse but that could just be a data copy from MDN

@dartess

My PR to remove the deprecation flag from onerror was just merged, this can (finally!) be closed. Our long national global nightmare is over.

(And in fact, the MDN <img> page is already updated!)

Thanks, @ferdnyc for your contribution and persistence to get this fixed. Closing this one because the related browser-compact-data PR is merged.
