On line "Buggy native", c denotes problems when using Node.cloneNode on templates or nodes that contain templates; i denotes problems when using Document.importNode on templates or nodes that contain templates. The polyfill fixes those problems.
On "Polyfill *" line, will have correct prototype HTMLTemplateElement (unlike browsers on "Polyfill " line).
Templates included in subdocuments (such as HTMLImports) need to be bootstrapped before being usable by calling:
``js`
if (window.HTMLTemplateElement.bootstrap) window.HTMLTemplateElement.bootstrap(otherDoc);
Polyfilled templates are not as inert as native templates. For examples, scripts will be executed and images will be loaded.
In some rare situations, the HTML parser may break the template content. For example:
`html`
a b
will give you an empty template. To handle such situations, you can create the template element with JavaScript:js
var template = document.createElement('template');
template.innerHTML = 'a b
`
or use a
`
and prepare the template with JavaScript:
`js
var script = document.querySelector('#table-fragment');
var template = document.createElement('template');
template.id = script.id;
template.innerHTML = script.text;
script.parentNode.replaceChild(template, script);
