Disabling a message for an element within a flag

Post by Daniel Lacroix »

Hi Albert,

I am getting this error message when validating ...

[83] The "iframe" element should not be used in a strict XHTML 1.0 document. Note that you may want to consider using a different DOCTYPE declaration that is more lenient and allows more element, such as an HTML 4.01 transitional DOCTYPE. For example, you may want to use the HTML 4.01 transitional DOCTYPE: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">. If you are using HTML Validator's integrated editor, then you can add this from the Tags menu or from the Tag Inserter.

I would like to disable the message only for the iframe element.

Can it be done?

Thanks.

Hi Daniel,

You can try editing the tag name program for iframe (107) using the Programs tab in the Configuration Editor.

Try changing this line:
runProgram(11,512,1024,65536,131072);

To this (remove 512):
runProgram(11,1024,65536,131072);

I would then save the new config file with a new name.

It's working.
Thanks Albert

How about this one

[82] The following attributes may not be used with the "form" element in a strict XHTML 1.0 document: "name" and "target".

For this one, I would like to disable the "name" attribute, since it's added automatically with .Net.

It tried to figure this one, but it's not obvious ... would you have any documentation, on how, one could do it?

Daniel.

You can do something similar, but for form (041). This will disable that check only for "form".

Change this line:
runProgram(1024,8192,65536);

to this (remove 1024):
runProgram(8192,65536);

Thanks Albert.

Does this last modification to the form tag, just disable the name attribute check within the form, or is it disabling more checks?

Thanks again.

Daniel.

Hi Daniel,

It will not do the check "for XHTML 1.0 strict, XHTML 1.1 and HTML 4.0x strict tags that may contain non-XHTML 1.0 strict, non-XHTML 1.1 or non-HTML 4.0x strict attributes". So it won't check to see if you used an attribute with "form" that is not allowed for XHTML 1.0 strict, XHTML 1.1 and HTML 4.0x strict documents. That includes the "name" and "target" attributes for "form". Elements other than "form" should not be affected.
