> Allow HTML5 doctype to be printed
> ---------------------------------
>
> Key: TAP5-1040
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAP5-1040
> Project: Tapestry 5
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: tapestry-core
> Affects Versions: 5.2.0, 5.1.0.5
> Reporter: Alexander Kiel
> Assignee: Josh Canfield
> Priority: Minor
> Fix For: 5.3.0, 5.2.5
>
> Attachments: added_ability_to_print_the_HTML5_DOCTYPE.patch
>
>
> According to the HTML5 Working Draft [1], the doctype to be used in the case
> you are using the HTML syntax is:
> <!DOCTYPE HTML> case-insensitive
> Unfortunately the class org.apache.tapestry5.dom.DTD doesn't allow doctypes
> with empty public and system identifier. It is also not possible to output
> the DOCTYPE legacy string <!DOCTYPE HTML SYSTEM "about:legacy-compat">,
> because some parser internal to Tapestry tries to resolve the system
> identifier. The best thing, I was able to output is the full HTML 4.01 strict
> doctype:
> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN"
> "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
> It is allowed in HTML5 as obsolete permitted DOCTYPE string, but not desired.
> It would be very simple to allow for what empty HTML5 doctype in
> org.apache.tapestry5.dom.DTD.
