           Summary: :invalid is being applied too early
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: All
               URL: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/105727/web/invalid.html
        OS/Version: Mac OS X 10.6
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: webkit-bugzilla at alanhogan.com


:invalid is being applied to form elements before they are attempted to be submitted, even while the user is typing.  If I type "f" to begin "foo at example.com", the input element will already turn red. This is like telling the user they are making a mistake before they actually have. For that reason, I will use the novalidate attribute until Webkit no longer tells my users they are wrong prematurely.

(In some cases I cannot seem to reliably reproduce, :invalid is even being applied before the user focuses in the element.)
