           Summary: The display of form controls with 'disabled' attribute
                    is not following the spec
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Layout and Rendering
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: gkonyukh at google.com

According to the W3C spec, "A form control is disabled if its disabled attribute is set, or if it is a descendant of a fieldset element whose disabled attribute is set and is not a descendant of that fieldset element's first legend element child, if any." (See http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec-author-view/attributes-common-to-form-controls.html#attr-fe-disabled for more information).

If a form element is a descendant of a fieldset with attribute 'disabled', it is still displayed as enabled.

Here is an example of HTML that exhibits the bug:

<fieldset name="clubfields" disabled>
 <legend> <label>
 <input type=checkbox name=club onchange="form.clubfields.disabled = !checked">
 Use Club Card
 </label> </legend>
 <p><label>Name on card: <input name=clubname required></label></p>
 <p><label>Card number: <input name=clubnum required pattern="[-0-9]+"></label></p>
 <p><label>Expiry date: <input name=clubexp type=month></label></p>
</fieldset>

(See http://dev.w3.org/html5/spec-author-view/the-fieldset-element.html#the-fieldset-element for more information on expected behavior).
