Iwao AVE! commented on STS-751:
-------------------------------
Timothy,
I apologize if my last comment sounded like insulting.
That must be because of my poor English skills and nothing more than that (I
had been editing the comment since last week trying to make it 'lighter'
somehow, but failed apparently... it's a shame).
Any contribution by you or Nikolaos (or anybody) should be respected and I
really do.
I also understand that the decision had been made as a result of IRC discussion
and I always respect the community's decision.
I just thought it's better to leave a comment expressing different opinion as
there seemed to be no one disagreeing.
Like you, I am just another user who wants to make Stripes better, sometimes by
avoiding complexity.

I still don't get your explanation about the local modification part.
Using OSS is OK, but using customized OSS is treated like a security risks or
something?
Sorry for my ignorance, but it doesn't make sense to me.
Regards,
Iwao

>
> Key: STS-751
> URL: http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-751
> Project: Stripes
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tag Library
> Affects Versions: Release 1.5
> Environment: No specific OS required; no specific Java version
> required; etc...
> Reporter: Nikolaos
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: stripes-xhtml-patch.tar.gz, stripes-xhtml-patches.tar.gz
>
>
> HTML and XHTML documents have some key differences.
> For example - if we consider the <input> tag:
> - In HTML, the <input> tag has no end tag e.g. <input name="website.url"
> type="text" size="30">
> - In XHTML, the <input> tag must be properly closed, like this <input />
> e.g. <input name="website.url" type="text" size="30" />
> Stripes 1.5.x however does not have a mechanism to discern whether or not to
> properly close tags or not and as such takes the safer approach which is to
> explicitly close tags as it results in valid XHTML and is not an error for
> HTML but results in a warning when validating HTML documents. Although the
> latter is not a critical issue it does result in needless or unnecessary
> complaints when validating and as such is an annoyance albeit minor.
> Struts since 1.x has solved this issue quite easily by allowing the inclusion
> of the xhtml="true" attribute to mark that closure is required (false
> indicates no closure). In this manner authors of XHTML and HTML documents
> are equally satisfied in not having any errors or extraneous warnings.
> Timothy Stone had reported this issue and classified it as a bug here:
> http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-556?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=11931#action_11931
> The issue was rightly closed as "Not a bug" as most of the discussion was
> based on a non-w3c validator which yielded results that considered the
> validation unsuccessful which is not the case with the w3c validator (not to
> mention that it is irrelevant whether or not XHTML is considered dead or we
> should align to HTML 5 - etc...).
> As such this issue report is a re-statement of the above closed issue
> reported as an improvement and setting the stage for patch to be attached.
