lazyloading attributes coming to Chrome

Post by TomHTML »

Starting in Chrome 75 (and currently available in Chrome Canary under a flag), the browser will handle lazyloading of images and iframes, with "lazy", "eager", and "auto" values for a "loading" attribute. Whatwg seems on track to standardize it, so it looks like yet another thing to validate.

Thanks! I'll add support for the "loading" attribute in the next CSS HTML Validator update.

UPDATE: Added (for next update)!
