Hi Kevin,
I ran into something similar where I wanted my pages to by xhtml 1.1
strict, but Kid's FAQ explained the 4.01 Transitional for the HTML
serializer. I can accept that reasoning, but I was thinking that it
would be nice if there was some way in TG to be able to choose the
serializer. (i.e. HTML or XML) since Kid has both.
'I tried monkey patching turbogears.view.serializer, but that did not
work and is fragile anyway.
Not sure if there are API differences between the two serializers and if
that would cause trouble for TG. I guess some investigating is in order.
Anyway, just a thought. I can live with HTML 4 for now.
Thanks,
Krys
Loving TG BTW. :-)
