Iwao AVE! updated STS-751:
--------------------------
Attachment: stripes-html4-input-0.1.jar
It's been a while and Timothy might have finished his patch, but please let me
add another possible solution.
The attached stripes-html4-input-0.1.jar is an extension that makes Stripes
generate html4-compatible input tags.
Note that it is just a proof-of-concept and is incomplete at this point
(_sourcePage and __fp hidden tags are self-closing) because the core FormTag is
not designed to be subclassed.
To use the extension :
1. drop the jar into /WEB-INF/lib directory (Stripes 1.5.3 is required).
2. change the 'uri' attribute of taglib directive that declares stripes tags
from
http://stripes.sourceforge.net/stripes.tld
to
http://stripes.sourceforge.net/stripes-html4-input.tld
Although it requires minor optimizations to the core tags to complete, it does
not require neither a new option nor local forking.
Couldn't it be a better solution to the problem?

> Key: STS-751
> URL: http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-751
> Project: Stripes
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Tag Library
> Affects Versions: Release 1.5
> Environment: No specific OS required; no specific Java version
> required; etc...
> Reporter: Nikolaos
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: stripes-html4-input-0.1.jar, stripes-xhtml-patch.tar.gz,
> stripes-xhtml-patches.tar.gz

> HTML and XHTML documents have some key differences.
> For example - if we consider the <input> tag:
> - In HTML, the <input> tag has no end tag e.g. <input name="website.url"
> type="text" size="30">
> - In XHTML, the <input> tag must be properly closed, like this <input />
> e.g. <input name="website.url" type="text" size="30" />
> Stripes 1.5.x however does not have a mechanism to discern whether or not to
> properly close tags or not and as such takes the safer approach which is to
> explicitly close tags as it results in valid XHTML and is not an error for
> HTML but results in a warning when validating HTML documents. Although the
> latter is not a critical issue it does result in needless or unnecessary
> complaints when validating and as such is an annoyance albeit minor.
> Struts since 1.x has solved this issue quite easily by allowing the inclusion
> of the xhtml="true" attribute to mark that closure is required (false
> indicates no closure). In this manner authors of XHTML and HTML documents
> are equally satisfied in not having any errors or extraneous warnings.
> Timothy Stone had reported this issue and classified it as a bug here:
> http://www.stripesframework.org/jira/browse/STS-556?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=11931#action_11931
> The issue was rightly closed as "Not a bug" as most of the discussion was
> based on a non-w3c validator which yielded results that considered the
> validation unsuccessful which is not the case with the w3c validator (not to
> mention that it is irrelevant whether or not XHTML is considered dead or we
> should align to HTML 5 - etc...).
> As such this issue report is a re-statement of the above closed issue
> reported as an improvement and setting the stage for patch to be attached.
