I'm with you there Colm (I even got the Zeldman beanie lol), hence the
question about getting valid code from a CMS ;)

DRMWVR MX Pro 2004 you can validate as xml but it coughs when it finds CF
tags. Better to have a look at http://w3.org/MarkUp/ especially run pages
through http://validator.w3.org/detailed.html with xhtml doctype.Good book
is
'Designing with Web Standards' Jeffrey Zeldman or books by Eric Myers. There
are some surprising workarounds and gotchas like instead of the verbose
Flash embed tag use the object tag as in <object
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="your.swf" width="100"
height="67">
<param name="movie" value="your.swf" />
</object>
Also the css you use should be validated as well at w3. Check out the
excellent html-kit free editor at http://www.chami.com/html-kit/ having a
cool cfmx functions extension it also has TIDY to check/format correct
xhtml/xml/html

Subject: [work] Re: [CF-Dev] XHTML compliance
- see footer for list info -<
...I've been using soEditor for a long time but problem is having to clean
up the code it produces to make it XHTML compliant.
I use JTidy to tidy up the html generated by the MS dhtml edit control
(soEditor and some others rely on this). Even if you get an editor which
produces clean xhtml (new version of FCKEditor is supposed to), you'll
still need something like JTidy to deal with rubbish people paste from
elsewhere. Some editors will attempt to clean up on paste, but I've yet to
find one that does a reliable job and you still have the problem of people
entering html directly, either because their browser is not supported by
your editor or they just use the source view yoke.
I can send you a copy of the code I use off-list if you want, or you can
get it by downloading SpeckCMS from www.speckcms.com, there's a tag called
spTidy that is called from the Html property.
Mark
