Description

How to get XHTML 1.0 Strict output

PmWiki tries to produce HTML output validating the standard "XHTML 1.0 Transitional". This page collects tips on how to produce output that would validate a different standard, "XHTML 1.0 Strict".

Tables

No more allowed table attributes: bordercolor, bgcolor, align (for the whole table). Use CSS styles instead.

Alignment of cell content is allowed.

Lists

%item value=x% is no more allowed. There seems to be no XHTML 1.0 Strict compatible method to set an item number in an OL.

[[<<]]

[[<<]] is suggested in the Images documentation to clear floats. PmWiki 2.2.26 generates "<br clear='all' />". Pm suggests

    Markup('[[<<]]', 'inline',
        '/\\[\\[&lt;&lt;\\]\\]/',
        "<br style='clear: both' />");

as a replacement.

An alternative to [[<<]] is "%p clear=left% ". Note the blank after the %, there has to be some character, e.g. blank or &nbsp;.

You need an entry

    $WikiStyleCSS[] = 'clear';

in config.php to enable the 'clear' attribute.

Mini

Mini uses the "border" tag for images. Remove it with

 $Mini['ImgFmt'] = '<img class="mini" src="%1$s" title="%2$s" alt="%2$s" />';
