Don Brown resolved WW-1649.
---------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: (was: 2.1.x)
2.0.8
Assignee: Don Brown
I fixed the POST issue and the spaces before the /> The id/name issue will
have to wait as that is a pretty big can of worms that deserves its own ticket.
An innocent change to be more compliant breaks all sorts of stuff, as I found
out once when I changed Struts 1.

> XHTML produced using css_xhtml template is not valid XHTML. I have found two
> basic issues, and one suggested modification:
> 1. Form method should be "post" not "POST".
> 2. The attribute "name" is deprecated in favor of using "id". This issue
> seems to be more difficult to deal with given that there seem to be many
> places depending on name. The following elements should NOT use name
> attribute: a, applet, form, frame, iframe, img, and map. However, it should
> also be noted that many Javascripts, including some Ajax toolkits, rely
> heavily on the DOM method getElementById rather than getting them by name,
> making it more important to encourage the use of id over name.
> 3. This one is more the for the sake of using xml/object binding tools, wsdl
> generators and such: When creating empty tags, the /> should have a space
> between it and the content like so:
> Less good <br/>
> More good <br />
> I have not looked much deeper than a simple form with two selects, so I
> cannot say if I may be missing others. I use the W3C XHTML validator often in
> testing, which makes it fairly easy to detect problems with xhtml validity.
> thanks
