Hello,

Great articles.. I tried getting into Issue 25, but had to backtrack as I've been out of the DNN scene for quite a while. I backtracked to Issue 19 ( than went back to issue 7 to install the HouseMenu), and than went to Issue 20 to fix the XHTML issue (still in 4.6.2)..

By than, everything should be fine.. But I keep on getting one error on the Simple Red Leaf Skin.

The Markup Validation Service from W3C give me the following:

Line 33, Column 160: document type does not allow element "div" here; missing one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag.

…-->



Any ideas how to resolve this? I couldn't find anything in regards to this..


Regards,
Danny

Hello Lee,

Thanks for getting back to me. I managed to figure things out with that one, but upon a new install and a more deeper look into the Issue 20 problems, in DNN 4.6.2., I am getting the following error:

Line 79, Column 91: document type does not allow element "table" here; missing one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag.

…ary="SignIn Design Table" width="160">


Any ideas? I noticed in the Login.acsx (I suppose the new substitution for Signin.acsx from previous versions) there were some references to the "Design Table", but the widths did not match, so I left it at that.

This error is caused because a table is placed within a span tag (shoul be a div). I'm trying to find the file that causes this. I'l let you know if i find it.

Got it! it's a forgotten property in the source code in login.ascx.vb:

  Private Sub DisplayLoginControl(ByVal authLoginControl As AuthenticationLoginBase, ByVal addHeader As Boolean, ByVal addFooter As Boolean)
            'Create a
to hold the control
            Dim container As HtmlGenericControl = New HtmlGenericControl()

            container.ID = authLoginControl.AuthenticationType
           container.TagName = "div" added by KISSsoft

Thanks for the info, I will give that a go.

I've just been experimenting with version 4.6 .2 and it's good that the default.aspx file now only needs a meta-tag adding to the file in order for it to be compliant. - I have been chatting with Cathal Connolly and hopefully the needed meta-tag should be added into the next version, so in future no changes should need to be made to the default.aspx file.

I've been digging some more: in the login module (with OpenID and/or LiveID enabled) lots of new xhtml incompatibilities have been introduced :-(

f.e. illegal attributes like csssel, csshover for the tabcontrol etc. But...i'm going to make this version xhtml complient!
