Neither am I, and to prove it, I just discovered that the </input>
ending is NOT valid in HTML strict. I'll update the JIRA issue.
As for discovering the doctype, I'm not sure.

Subject: Re: [Stripes-users] Input tags generate invalid html
So, here's my question. Is there a way for Stripes to know the DOCTYPE
you are using without having you re-state it in some stripes specific
tag? I ask because of the two valid alternatives you give at least one
is invalid XHTML. I'm not completely up on this but aren't there cases
where you just cannot generate HTML that is valid HTML 4.0 and valid
XHTML at the same time?

I already created a JIRA issue for this. I'm not sure if it's bad form
to also post an email. Here's the JIRA issue
URL:http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-556
Hello, If I use an input tag like this:
<stripes:text name="website.url" size="30"></stripes:text>
It'll generate some html like this:
<input name="website.url" type="text" size="30" />
But, if your html is using a doctype like this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";>
That form is actually invalid. It should instead generate HTML like
this:
<input name="website.url" type="text" size="30">
Or this:
<input name="website.url" type="text" size="30" ></input>
Here is a validator that you can test this with: http://validator.nu
<http://validator.nu/>
Paste this html into it to see for yourself:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";>
<html>
<head><title>title</title></head>
<body>
<form action="na">
<div>
<input name="website.url" type="text" size="30"/>
</div>
</form>
</body>
</html>
This HTML will validate after you remove the trailing / on the input
tag.
