Specification: http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/sections.html Multipage: http://www.whatwg.org/C#outlines Complete: http://www.whatwg.org/c#outlines Comment: remove extra 'e' at end of misspelled word 'outlinee' Posted from: 91.37.217.197 User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_6_8) AppleWebKit/534.57.2 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/5.1.7 Safari/534.57.2
It's not misspelt; it's the "element that is being outlined", i.e. the outlinee. If you have a better suggestion I'm eager to use it instead, since people keep getting confused by this.
Went with "outline target".
Checked in as WHATWG revision r7671. Check-in comment: Try renaming 'outlinee' to 'outline target' to see if it makes more sense to people. http://html5.org/tools/web-apps-tracker?from=7670&to=7671
