javascript error returned when quotes are missing #14

Closed meganf closed 10 years ago

The following error message comes back when quotes are missing from an attribute value in the HTML5 doctype

Error in event handler for 'undefined': SyntaxError: Unexpected string at _logMessages (chrome-extension://bbicmjjbohdfglopkidebfccilipgeif/validity.js:106:8) at chrome-extension://bbicmjjbohdfglopkidebfccilipgeif/validity.js:119:6 at [object Object].dispatch (extensions/event.js:179:28) at extensions/renderer_extension_bindings.js:99:24 at [object Object].dispatch (extensions/event.js:179:28) at Object.

This also happens for the following tag:

w3c validator says: Bad value 0; URL='/errors/noscript' for attribute content on element meta: Expected an unquoted IRI reference, but saw ' instead.

NOTE: Removing these quotes fixes the issue, but Validity should gracefully handle these errors. Maybe this is a general problem when parsing quotes in attribute values?
