Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: core Group: 1.2 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Benjamin Hawkes-Lewis (webben) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Valid hidden field for XHTML 1.0 Strict Initial Comment: Currently, the hidden field inserted by Wicket for submitting data via JavaScript without a submit input or button (e.g. with a drop down selection, or a link) does not validate as XHTML 1.0 strict, where all input elements - even hidden ones - must occur within a block-level element such as p, div, or fieldset. Of these, a <div> is the most unobtrusive option. A 'style="display:none"' inline CSS attribute must be added, both to override custom styling of divs and because otherwise the div might be turned into whitespace (see http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-699). So here's a patch for wicket.markup.html.form.java's onComponentTagBody method to generate the div automatically. Personally, I feel that this div and the hidden input field - which exist only to service JavaScript and have no other semantic function that I know of - should be added to the DOM by external JavaScript called from the using component as required. I recognise however that this would involve additional testing. But in the meanwhile we can at least follow the letter if not the spirit of the relevant standards. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=684977&aid=1489178&group_id=119783 ------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
