RC3: Incorrect HTML code

ckit · Post by **ckit** » Sat May 21, 2005 2:35 am

Using the HTML Validator 0.5.9 extension in Firefox,
I noticed XnView has a incorrect <tr> tag towards the end of the HTML file.
The tag should be a closing tag </tr> not opening tag.

Good to see that someone actually looked into the HTML generation. Pierre has made real changes in this area and with the right CSS, the pages generated can look really nice.

SOLVED

If I get my inspiration back I will try to make nice css set for HTML templates.

I runned html pages through HTML tidy now I am sure it's not there anymore

but the doctype is invalid
"Line 1, column 60: invalid formal public identifier "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en": invalid public text class"

should be
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en" "http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/loose.dtd">
Theres more of these doctype defins but loose.dtd probably fits just fine for simple page.

4.1 strict or xhtml is the way to go...

I've just made a check with HTML Tidy which is included in PSPad.

There have been various issues:

== In Template "_Default - Frame"

index.html:
- DOCTYPE should be Frameset//EN.
- Upperlowercase of DOCTYPE
- Empty src="" for frame2 (not solved, yet, think this should point to the first image or a dummy page (another template page).

thumb.html
- DOCType (see above)
- <i>,<h1> were uppercase (minor issue)

page.html
- Misplaced </td>
- <i>,<h1> were uppercase (minor issue)

== In Template "_Default - Frame"
Basically same problems as above.

I have zipped and uploaded the corrected HTML template. The DOCTYPE might be still wrong.

Thanks. I made whole set of those. Take a look
If memory serves well strict don't work with frames. (look down

)

I forgot that there are two typy of HTML templates with frames and not frames.

So that could be strict for simple and frameset for Frame =)

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Frameset//EN"
   "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/frameset.dtd">

My original post has been fixed in RC4.

You can replace the tags <div align="center"> and </div> by using the following code in the CSS file.

table.tabc { border: 0px; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center }

Now in the HTML file....
<table class="tabc" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">

You can also kill "border="0" in the table tags as well.
Also you can choose any class name (I used "tabc")

I'm learning CSS myself at the moment.

i'm not sure border:0; is valid css. Use border:none; or border:0px;

also don't forget to add a meta tag for character encoding

Hello ! Bonsoir,
- That is true… I use CSS for a long while now, even as so "huge" files in some Tutorials / Help folders…

- ckit could give a glance on the help-file of MicroSulphur :

Code: Select all

C:\windows\HELP\HTMLREF.CHM

that you get when installing the (free) HTML Help WorkShop program.

It isn't very “fresh” and I couldn't find updates @ M$', but it's a good base.

{ Aside : It's available for you still !

}

Kind regards,
Claude
Clo
