Re: [cc-devel] Malformed HTML in CC licences

Unfortunately simply adding the DOCTYPE declaration for XHTML+RDFa isn't sufficient to make it validate. The document contains namespace declarations like xmlns:cc="http://creativecommons.org/ns#"; which are not valid per the DTD. Admitedly some validators choose not to give warnings abo

Most of the anchor tags with name attrs are actually found in the translations themselves and not in the deed templates, and can't be changed easily right now. So, it will have to wait until later. On Tue, Jan 10, 2012 at 5:43 PM, Jonathan Palecek wrote: > Alright;  normal deeds pass the w3c val

Alright; normal deeds pass the w3c validation tool now without warnings or anything. Deeds for public domain tools will have a single attribute error, which I will remove shortly. On Tue, Jan 10, 2012 at 4:51 PM, Nathan Yergler wrote: > No good reason that I can imagine, probably just legacy (

Ignoring the attribute errors, the deeds should be well-formed now. The template file common to most of the deeds and the one common to the public domain tool use different doctypes from one another. In the later case, the doctype is xhtml+rdfa. I've opened up a new bug ticket for this - code.cr

Yikes. Regardless of whether they're well formed as XML, these do need to be well formed HTML to fulfill the promise that they operate as linked data documents. In the case of the extraneous span close tag, that looks like a bug in the template (http://code.creativecommons.org/viewgit/cc.engine.git

2012-01-04 Thread Richard Smith
Some of the current generation of CC licences including http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/3.0/ are malformed, whether parsed as HTML or XML. These are not problems with the extra RDFa attributes that are to be anticipated (and only affect the validity but not the wellformedness of
