| From: Christopher Schultz [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] | Sent: Sunday, 07 January, 2007 09:56 | | At any rate, you should try to avoid anything that's not a W3C standard. Yeah, so stay away from Mozilla's little shortcuts like using document.getElementsByTagName('tag')['name'] (gEBTN() is defined to return a NodeList, not a NamedNodeMap). And be sure to avoid appending a new row to a table by just blithely calling tbl.appendChild(document.createElement(tr)) -- even through Mozilla accepts it and does what you might expect, it's wrong (that code will append a new child to the *table*, so it'll be treated as a second table body, so it won't show up) So use the W3C standard of tbl.lastChild.appendChild(document.createElement(tr)), like IE enforces. Sorry, I just get a little twitchy when people start mooning over Mozilla's W3C compliance. Sure, it's pretty compliant, and yes IE is a festering cesspool, but don't get suckered into the Well, it works on Mozilla/FF/NS, so it *must* be W3C compliant... trap. Every browser has it's little departures from the spec, keep your eyes open and test with every (version of every) browser you can get your hands on. - The information contained in this message is confidential proprietary property of Nelnet, Inc. and its affiliated companies (Nelnet) and is intended for the recipient only.

That may be true but to ignore the behavior differences especially when the target audience is using something other than you are is poor practice. One way to avoid most problems is to stay away from browser specific features and rely on standard markups and extensions as much as possible. You'll be looked upon with much more favor if you test in the most popular browsers and ensure they work and look good than if you start putting requirements on what browser the end user must use. - To start a new topic, e-mail: users@tomcat.apache.org To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

This is false. innerHTML is supported by most current browsers. Try this, just click the button: htmlheadtitle/title/headbody div id=divTest/div input type=button onClick=document.getElementById('divTest').innerHTML='It works'; /body/html Works in IE, FF and Opera at least, I don't have a Mac to try in Safari but I'd bet it works just fine.

I don't think it's exactly new for FF or Opera though, I suspect you'd find the above works in FF 1.0 though, and Opera back probably a few versions too. You would be correct to say innerHTML is not a standard (other than de facto perhaps), but to say it doesn't work in anything but IE is just not correct.

My advice on that is to make sure that you are only using javascript as added flavor, and to ensure that a non-javascript user can still accomplish everything (even if it is a bit less convenient). That's true about older browsers being left out in the cold, but at some point I think it's perfectly legitimate to stop supporting older versions. I don't think it's an egregiously bad move to not support 4.x browsers at this point. I think it's telling that a Google search for browser statistics, and then checking out the results on the first page, most of the statistics lists don't even mention anything older than 5.x browsers, and those that do show sub-1% usage levels. So, I for one am not losing any sleep by not supporting anything older than 5.x browsers :) - -chris Frank -- Frank W.

I didn't realize that innerHTML was one of the concessions that the Mozilla folks made when attempting to strictly adhere to W3C standards. At some point in the development of Mozilla, the team decided that they would die if they didn't support some of the tag soup that MSIE has allowed to fester on the web.

Pierre, jsp is compiled by tomcat into servlets. Tomcat then calls the servlet to service an incoming requests. The html that's embedded into the jsp pages is sent to the client as its is shown, along with any you are generating. Usually when people ask 'will it work in this browser' they are referring to different browsers interpreting the html, css standards differently.

I thought that the JSP was converted into HTML by Tomcat ? Regards, Pierre 2007/1/6, ben short [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Um your joking right? Tomcat dosent actually create any of the html, thats up to your servlets/jsp. Unless you mean the Tomcat manager webapp. I havent had any problems with it and have used a few different browsers to acces it. On 1/6/07, Pierre Goupil [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello, folks ! Does anyone know about Tomcat's generated HTML standards compliance ? In developpement, I'm using Firefox Konqueror, but in production they will be using IE, so... Can it be that I run into problems ? I'm using Struts, Spring JSTL (JSP, of course).
