The API docs for HTMLImports says

In a native HTML Imports, document.currentScript.ownerDocument references the import document itself. In the polyfill use document._currentScript.ownerDocument (note the underscore).

Given the changes to HTMLImports in this release, is this still suppose to work in 0.1.4?

After upgrading to 0.1.4, inside a script tag in my import file document.currentScript is null while document._currentScript is undefined.

Changing my code to get the doc from HTMLImports.currentScript fixed everything for me.

The HTMLImports polyfill should ensure that "document._currentScript" is universally available (of course document.currentScript is correct but it's not possible to correctly polyfill so we opt for _currentScript).

I can't seem to reproduce this issue. A test case would be extremely helpful, thanks.

Here's a basic test. Create the two following files and bower install polymer 0.1.4.

index.html:

<html>
    <head>
        <title>HTML Imports Test</title>
        <script src="bower_components/platform/platform.js"></script>
        <link rel="import" href="bower_components/polymer/polymer.html">
        <link rel="import" href="my-import.html">
    </head>
    <body>
        HTML Import Test<br/><br/>
        These values are captured in the imported script and then displayed here in the parent doc.<br/><br/>
        <code>
            <div><strong>document.currentScript = </strong><span id="noPrefix"></span></div>
            <div><strong>document._currentScript = </strong><span id="prefixed"></span></div>
            <div><strong>HTMLImports.currentScript = </strong><span id="htmlImports"></span></div>
        </code>
    </body>    
</html>

my-import.html

<script type="text/javascript">
    var parentDoc = document;
    
    // Display current script values on parent page
    parentDoc.getElementById("noPrefix").innerHTML = "" + document.currentScript;
    parentDoc.getElementById("prefixed").innerHTML = "" + document._currentScript
    parentDoc.getElementById("htmlImports").innerHTML = "" + HTMLImports.currentScript
</script>
