Reto Bachmann-Gmür closed CLEREZZA-548.
---------------------------------------
Resolution: Not A Problem
ü is not defined in XHTML, use the unicode character ü instead. Beside
that it would be not trivial to add the doctype declaration it seems
unnecessary to have the browser load this entity/character definitions from the
dtd (actually not directly but from
http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-lat1.ent which is referenced in the DTD).
> Missing DOCTYPE declarations on Clerezza pages lead to XML errors in Firefox.

> Key: CLEREZZA-548
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLEREZZA-548
> Project: Clerezza
> Issue Type: Bug
> Environment: Ubuntu 10.10, Firefox 3.6.17
> Reporter: Daniel Spicar
>
> When pages use HTML entities (e.g. ü) in their source Firefox 3.6 fails
> to render the page because of an error (in FF error console):
> "XML Parsing Error: undefined entity"
> This can be solved by adding a DOCTYPE declaration at the top of that page.
> e.g.
> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
> "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd";>
> However it seems that none of the SSP generated pages in Clerezza do that and
> I am not aware of how to do it in SSP. If I add it to the SSP source I get an
> exception when the SSP is parsed:
> ScriptException rendering ScalaServerPage:
> org.apache.clerezza.scala.scripting.CompileErrorsException: <script1>:17:
> error: in XML literal: '-' expected instead of 'D'<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC
> "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" ^<script1>:17: error: in XML literal: '-'
> expected instead of 'O'<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
> Strict//EN" ^<script1>:65: error: input ended while parsing XML}
> I think this issue is pretty serious because when a page contains HTML
> specific entities (like umlauts, < will work as it is allowed in all XML
> documents) it will just not render or only render partially in Firefox. Also
> there is no clear indication that this error occurs unless you check the FF
> error console (which is easy to forget). I also tested with Opera which
> didn't have the issue. But it seems it is not a Firefox bug that we do not
> declare X(HT)ML documents correctly.
