I've tried Mozilla, and I've don't find any options saying that the
code generated will be XHTML compliant. Mozylla generate <br>, <hr>,
<img>, ...
Based on suggestions I've received, I've tried nvu. And nvu has an
options allowing you to generate XHTML files that kid can manage.
Fine!!!!
BUT
I cannot use the ${variable} notation ????!!!!???
Each time nvu convert it to a "%7B" ;-(.
Thus one of the goal of Kid: give back a kid file to a designer, does
not work with nvu.
Thus Kid, and his requirement to use strict XHTML, is annoying.
Am I the only one having such problems ?
Thanks
