Include URL parsing differences inside <a> tags #9

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Please include the different parsing rules that are applied in parsing URLs
inside <a> tags.
Eg, how are these parsed in different browsers:

<a href='/foo">
<a href="/foo&amp;">
<a href="/foo&quot;">
<a href='/foo&apos;'>
<a href='/foo%30'>

With the exception of last two, these are all invalid HTML, so I doubt any 
specific
<a> tag parsing comes into effect?

Moreover, both in the invalid, uncorrected form, and in a corrected version with
matching quotes, they appear to me to parse the same way in common browsers. 
Please
clarify?
