fix($http): update httpBackend to use ActiveXObject on IE8 if necessary

2014-02-01T00:52:42+00:00

window.XMLHttpRequest is not always available in IE8 despite it not running in quirks mode,
in which case Angular should be using the ActiveXObject instead. Just checking the browser
version is taking too many shortcuts.

2014-01-31T19:38:06+00:00

promise returned by `$q.reject`

fix($compile): retain CSS classes added in cloneAttachFn on asynchronous directives

2014-01-31T17:45:35+00:00

Previously, classes added to asynchronous directive elements during the clone
attach function would not persist after the node is merged with the template, prior
to linking. This change corrects this behaviour and brings it in line with synchronous
directives.

fix(a): don't preventDefault on click when SVGAElement has an xlink:href attribute

2014-01-22T19:51:47+00:00

Before this change, an SVGAElement with an xlink:href attribute and no href or name attribute which
was compiled by the angular HTML compiler would never be clickable, due to the htmlAnchorDirective
calling event.preventDefault() due to the missing href attribute.

This change corrects this behaviour by also testing the xlink:href attribute if the element in
question is determined to be an SVG anchor tag (with the href property having type SVGAnimatedString)
