Replying to [comment:71 alecm]:
> Regarding the mdash validation error. I'm using the validator here:
http://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_input which is of course experimental
for HTML5, but I suspect other people will use it. I view the source for
the front-page in my browser and copying and pasting it into the text box.
The validator automatically detects that the page is HTML5 and utf8. It
has an issue with the mdash that Plone puts in the title tag, as well as
with the http-equiv="Content-Type" meta tag. I don't think these are
terribly important since the validator.nu validator appears to be the
better one.
Thanks for the explanation, Alec. Then, I suppose this is very minor
issue. I validate from Firefox, using WebDeveloper Tools' "Validate local
HTML" feature. It sends the local site's (in our case running on
localhost:8080/Plone) output to the official w3c validator as well. In
this case there are no validation errors and the document is validated as
fully valid HTML5 document. Dunno, maybe the ways they process the direct
input is different, but since validator.nu doesn't raise an error as well,
I tend to think the 'direct input' feature of the official validator has
issues.
So, I suppose, we can conclude that the ticket is really ready for merge
:)
