Make sure GeoServer generates valid XHTML
-----------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-3063
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-3063
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Task
Reporter: Andrea Aime
Assignee: Andrea Aime
Fix For: 2.0-beta2
Failure to comply to XHTML usually results in strange browser behaviour and CSS issues.
The Firefox HTML Validator (http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/download.html) can be used to check most of the failures. There are a few that I think we can ignore, such as:
- not adding "alt" attribute to images
- the xmlns:wicket="http://wicket.apache.org/" declaration
but just on the home page the tool spots two unclosed input elements and a div inside an <a> element (that should not be there).
There is also a validator in Wicket-stuff that can be used for the purpose in an automated fashion:
