[WSG] W3C validator bug?
Hi, Since I made a post whose title included double-quotes on my WordPress-powered site, the W3C's validator has been whining at me: http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nickfitz.co.uk%2F because the page now contains double-quote-delimited title attributes whose value, from the validator's point of view, includes double-quotes. However, the actual source contains the relevant numeric character references (#8220; and #8221;), not the quote characters themselves. From my reading of the relevant part of the spec: http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/intro/sgmltut.html#h-3.2.2 the words Authors may also use numeric character references to represent double quotes suggest that the validator is wrong to treat the quotes in the title attributes as quotes - it could be said to have parsed them too early, if you will. Does anybody agree that this is a bug in the validator (in which case I'll file a bug report), or am I missing something? Cheers, Nick. -- Nick Fitzsimons http://www.nickfitz.co.uk/ *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Hi Nick, I think you are looking in the wrong place in your HTML source. You are correct that the double quote is an entity in the title, but the validator is saying the error occurred on line 137 which is the link to the comments section. The source there is: ... | a href=http://www.nickfitz.co.uk/2007/02/14/why-left-px-is- better-for-acc essibility-than-display-none/#comments title=Comment on Why left: -px; is Better For Accessibility Than display: none;12 Comments #187;/a/p There you can see the double quote is no longer an entity. The error seems to be in your version of Wordpress and not the validator. DOH! Yup, I was indeed looking in the wrong place and a hunt through the WP code shows that the post metadata displays the post title without passing it through the apply-filters() function. Thanks, Kepler; everybody else, sorry for the wild goose chase. Regards, Nick. -- Nick Fitzsimons http://www.nickfitz.co.uk/ *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Re:[WSG] A Linux Check please?
Hey Joseph, Yeah, the layout works fine here ! I'm running Iceweasel 2.0 on Debian etch. By the way, anybody can tell me if there is a difference in spaces between Linux and Windows ? Well, I have a little problem here. On Windows the layout which I design works really fine in Firefox and IE. But when I try it on Linux (on Firefox or any other browser) I can see a very very little annoying spaces ! Anybody here already had this kind of problem ?
