Hello, I am author of (x)html completion scripts and related (php, css, javascript). I'd like to ask what you think it should like.
At the beginning I was pushing for one default: XHTML 1.0 Strict. Bram didn't like it and now there are two: fot &ft='html' HTML 4.01 Transitional and for &ft=='xhtml' XHTML 1.0 Strict (user can still choose another version with b:html_omni_flavor variable - this improvement may be not yet in snapshot/cvs/svn). Bram still doesn't like it. According for him completion should be more flexible and not limited to some standard. For me it defies whole idea of omni-completion - completion suggestions should be precise. Problem with (X)HTML is there are many standards but creation of messy compilation from them has no sense. Vim is superb program and should support writing of good code - according to standards. To make this support full it could look: - provide data files for most of (X)HTML standards: - HTML 3.2 Strict (for legacy pages) - HTML 4.0 Transitional - HTML 4.0 Strict - HTML 4.0 Frameset - HTML 4.01 Transitional - HTML 4.01 Strict - HTML 4.01 Frameset - XHTML 1.0 Transitional - XHTML 1.0 Strict - XHTML 1.0 Frameset - XHTML 1.1 That is 11 data files, ca. 45kB each (5kB packed) - total 500 kB (55kB) Add functions for detection of DOCTYPE to ftplugins for xhtml and html. Still there is usability problem for creation of new files. Maybe some general completion for insertion of DOCTYPE and setting appropriately completion. TIA for comments. m.
