dropzone failed to get traction among browser implementers. Having it in the specification is confusing to Web developers who may attempt to use it, only to discover that it is not supported. WebKit and Blink implemented a prefixed version, webkitdropzone. The prefixed version is going away from Blink [1]. WebKit has no objections to the attribute getting removed from the spec [2]. Fixes #2331. Tests: * web-platform-tests/wpt#5052 * web-platform-tests/wpt#5053 [1]: https://www.chromestatus.com/feature/5718005866561536 [2]: #2331 (comment)

The
dropzoneattribute is being removed from the HTML specification in whatwg/html#2402 and should be removed from WPT. This is not a trivial find-and-remove because we need to make sure that the tests we remove aren't intended to cover other functionality.For example, Blink had tests that used
dropzoneand also covered the interaction betweenDataTransfer.effectAllowedandDataTransfer.dropEffect, which had to be rewritten in https://codereview.chromium.org/2729353002/This issue will track my efforts to sift through all tests that contain
dropzoneand update or remove them.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
