This is a 404. This entry came from wiki migration in #1132. I can't figure out what this ever was, but am pretty sure we should drop it from BCD.

My investigation says whatwg/html#2342 removed it.

Thanks for digging that up! Sounds like it was only ever shipped in Gecko, and it was removed here:

This came from #2877. As a Firefox API for internal use only, we can remove it.

I think this should be paired with removal of https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/blob/master/html/elements/isindex.json.

https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/isindex says "All major browsers have now removed <isindex>" but not when.

Per whatwg/html#1095 support was removed from Edge and Chrome back then, and Firefox was planning to remove. That happened here:
mozilla/gecko-dev@217ac88

WebKit support was dropped here:
https://trac.webkit.org/changeset/205858/webkit

So yes, this is far enough in the past that we can drop it from MDN/BCD.

It's covered in #6955 but I can also do it here. Do you prefer to do it here?

Nah, let's leave it in the other PR, I didn't know it was covered there.
