SGML Parser doesn't like <script> contents?

Duende · Dec 24, 2004

While sitting in a puddle Neal scribbled in the mud:

So we must use XCSS, right? And XJavascript, XFlash, and lay it all out
with Xtables in an Xframeset!

Looks like the way to go. I'll be changing all my sites over next year.

Wait - what if they come out with YHTML?

Hm - I can imagine the different kinds of positioning ability with
that one ..

Can somebody point me to a page that asks for full enforcement of true XHTML?

Why do you persist with this useless attribution line after you've been
asked to change it?

What does that mean in English?

Great, you've found a HTML doctype declaration, now what does this have
to do with XHTML?

The hazards of Copy/Paste.

SHB:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

And I was just feeling so good about everything getting past the parser....

Pete, you seem to be purposely ignoring all the requests for you to
fix your newsreader to get rid of that silly "RE/" attribute. Surely,
Forte Agent 2.0/32.652 can be set to include the person's name whom
you are quoting. Please do so.

Otherwise, have a Merry Christmas.

Correct.

How does this look?

See how my post says: "(Pete Cresswell) wrote:" ?

Make yours do the same, with the attributed name of the person you are
replying to. I'm sure Forte's Help will tell you how to do this.

In Forte he should go to Options > General Preferences > Posting

On %date%, %from% wrote:\n

To include other variables such as the Message-ID or Newsgroup see the
Help file under "Composing an Introduction String. There's about a
dozen variables that he can use, but only a few are useful. He can
also change the non-variable text to other silliness that some posters
occasionally use.

This code:
--------------
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<base target="40thPix_DisplayArea"/>
<title> Click on a small picture...</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Master.css"/>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/>
</head>

<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
document.write("<p id='ThumbNavListloading'>Loading thumbnails, please
wait...<\/p>");
.......
</script>
--------------

makes the W3C's SGML parser flag the 'document.write' line with
-------------------------------------
Line 12, column 45: document type does not allow element "p" here

...nt.write("<p id='ThumbNavListloading'>Loading thumbnails, please wait...<\/p>

The element named above was found in a context where it is not allowed. This
could mean that you have incorrectly nested elements -- such as a "style"
element in the "body" section instead of inside "head" -- or two elements that
overlap (which is not allowed). [...]
Seems like it's not buying the <script> command - but the code works, so
*somebody* is recognizing it.

Can anybody tell me where I've sinned?

This validates with 2 warnings but don't know what the scrpit will do

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<base target="40thPix_DisplayArea" />
<title> Click on a small picture...</title>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="Master.css" />
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
</head>
<body>

<script type="text/javascript">
document.write("<\p id='ThumbNavListloading'>Loading thumbnails, please wait...< \/p>");
</script>

</body>
