MDN URL

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Global_attributes/inert#browser_compatibility

What specific section or headline is this issue about?

The BCD table

What information was incorrect, unhelpful, or incomplete?

Looking at the BCD table at the bottom of the inert HTML attribute page, it looks like it's fully supported.
However, the we-features entry disagrees with this: https://web-platform-dx.github.io/web-features-explorer/features/inert/

The discrepancy comes from this BCD key: api.HTMLElement.inert.ignores_find_in_page which isn't supported in Safari because of a bug: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=269909

What did you expect to see?

The BCD table at the bottom of the MDN page should show a row for this key, so that developers know what to expect.

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

No response

Do you have anything more you want to share?

This is purely targeting BCD right?

I actually don't know. The data is already in BCD. So I'm not sure why it's not visible on that MDN page. I assumed that maybe we needed to add some missing configuration on the MDN page for it to show. But maybe it's on the BCD side?

The HTML attribute has no such sub feature documented. The API does: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLElement/inert so it shows up there. Perhaps you want it to be duplicated in both places.

Ah that's a great find! I hadn't seen this was on the API. Yes we should duplicate I think.
So this should be moved to BCD.
