Description

Demo jsFiddle

I don't know if it's a bug or the intended behaviour, but it sure would be very handy to have this functionality so we don't have to track every DOM manipulation for potential form insertions.

It doesn't work, at least in Chrome 20, with or without jQuery:

The invalid event is not bubbling.

Can you point me to the current standard? The w3c site says WebForms2 has been superceded by HTML5, which says nothing about this event.

I haven't been able find information about it either. The closest thing I've found it's the XForms invalid event which does indeed bubble. I wonder why they decided to disable it in HTML5.

I guess this ticket should be closed, as the problem is not about jQuery anymore.

Thank you for your comment!
