Section permalink scope change?

Open r12a opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Here's one example of 26 drafts where we used to be able to link to either the topic heading, using §, or to the related issue, such as # 89: https://www.w3.org/TR/beng-gap/#issue89_segmentation

A recent change has broken this. See for example: https://www.w3.org/TR/nkoo-gap/#issue14_cursive

Now the permalink seems to be applied to the whole line, making it impossible to link to the issue. This is a serious breakage and will affect, as i mentioned, many locations in many specs. Can we please revert to the previous situation?

  • ReSpec version: 29.0.4
  • [x] I did a "hard refresh", but it's still busted.

The change was made to improve accessibility with the guidance of the Aria folks.

Let’s see if we can find an alternative way to address the breakage in the i18n specs.

Adjusted the markup for all of our documents so as to separate out the link from the heading. This is therefore no longer an issue.
