What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

incomplete but required
<base href="https://www.example.com/" />

<base target="_top" href="https://example.com/" />

What did you expect to see?

new heading
Off-page and In-page anchors

new content
<base> would require related(?) developments in HTML6. Through technological expansion, <base> tags may help site visitors to contextually organize browser in-tab and off-tab browsing. We require 2 universal user controls to enable user contextual selection for exactly 2 on-off toggles in all browsers. Toggle 1 concurrently cycles in-tab/off-tab browsing to content within the currently active page. Toggle 2 concurrently cycles in-tab/off-tab browsing to content on any other active Internet page. HTML <base> arguments would continue to over-ride the new in-tab/off-tab browser user control toggles, protecting existing technologies and security conventions.

Regardless...

new heading
<base> argument syntax hierarchy FURTHER development required

description missing
It is important that <base href[="https"] target="_blank"> be followed by <base target="_self">. These two base values on the same page regulate off-tab and in-tab navigation. Those links with the https target will open html page addressess in new tabs. While links with the # target will open bookmarks on the same base targets [plural] page in the same browser tab. Each base target argument must be placed in a separate <base> element tag. E.g. ,

example missing
<base href[="https"] target="_blank">
```

Do you have any supporting links, references, or citations?

No-Response

Do you have anything more you want to share?

2024 May 12, Safari 17.4.1 requires that both <base> targets must be placed in the following order. First, base href[="https"] target="_blank" followed by the base target="_self". So that the browser can access described html document external _blank and interna _selfl link behaviors. Thus deploying the herein described ease-of-use Base URL element metadata accessibility efficiencies.

What specific section or headline is this issue about?

Introduction
<base>: The Document Base URL element
'There can be only one <base> element in a document.'
This is patently incorrect information, and conflicts with section ‘Multiple elements’, that follows, below.. Apple Safari has clearly demonstrated that two (2) <base> tags are essential to control normal browsing activity.

Further... It is noted that this html base element development is occurring during several months of globally disruptive cyber attack against all Region 3 online activity. Such that national Region 3 (Americas) governments are pushing public WARNINGS to all citizens. The warnings that the mobile devices and that the television stations broadcast state that,
"All citizens must engage all online activity with special caution."

Web pages like apple.com and caniuse.com are redirecting to full page frozen tabs with extremist white supremacy emblems, and so on. So while the <base> tags target href[="https"]-and-target="_self" dual page header deployments work well and seem logical together, at this time we may feel safer, if we wisely set aside improvement, briefly. Recheck security, and then proceed TODAY to update this MDN page with caution.

QUESTIONS !!

  1. What 2 terms license or distinguish <base href target> vs. <base # target> kinds ?
  2. Are "href" and "ID" good names ?
  3. Regardless,, how many kinds of <base> exist (i.e., hiis triage shows 2 or 5 kinds)?
  4. Can MDN objectively group all of the <base> element kinds in a list ?
  5. Will HTML6 finally support same-page <base> forks?
