Resolution: Fixed > Do not generate name tags from section names > -------------------------------------------- > > Key: MPXDOC-158 > URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MPXDOC-158 > Project: maven-xdoc-plugin > Type: Improvement > Versions: 1.9.1 > Environment: ? > Reporter: Lukas Theussl > Assignee: Lukas Theussl > Fix For: 1.10 > Attachments: MPXDOC-158.patch, site.jsl.patch > > Original Estimate: 5 minutes > Remaining: 5 minutes > > In the current version of the xdoc plugin, a <a name="sectionName"> element > is generated for every sub/section from its corresponding > name tag. This may lead to an invalid HTML document if some sub/sections have > the same name, because according to the HTML 4.01 specs ( > http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/struct/links.html#h-12.2.1 ), anchor names must be > unique within one document. For the xdoc plugin this is not a big problem > because browsers usually ignore identical ids, but we are having troubles for > the pdf plugin (see MPPDF-40) where identical ids lead to a > build failure. > I suggest to generate an id from an optional id tag as in the following > example: > <section name="Section 1"> > <subsection name="SubSection" id="SubSection1"> > </subsection> > </section> > <section name="Section2"> > <subsection name="SubSection" id="SubSection2"> > </subsection> > </section> > so the section title is constructed from the name tag while the id tag (which > has to be unique) may be used to reference the section. > I attach a patch to achieve this, if this gets accepted I can easily adjust > the pdf plugin accordingly. > The only worry is backwards compatibility: xdocs that use the old feature of > referencing sections by names, will produce invalid links. > However, I haven't seen this feature documented anywhere, I don't think it is > widely used and therefore, it should not be a big problem. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
