Default quotation marks in a new language section #8

Closed r12a closed 4 years ago

r12a commented 4 years ago

In addition, the default quotation marks for the q element are not set to the appropriate characters by the browser when the element appears inside a Dutch section of a page that has a different overall language. This is currently per the HTML specification (both W3C and WhatWG). There is an issue raised against the WhatWG version for this to be changed.

Marking as advanced, because use of the q element is optional (quote characters can be used instead), and it can be styled using CSS for the general case.
