Search tag and XHTML 1.0 Compliance
Posted: Wed Nov 30, 2005 10:43 pm
I included the "search" tag in my template and it was specified as XTML 1.0 strict, but whenever I attempted to validate the page I was getting several of the following error messages in the code generated by the "search" tag:
XHTML has a requirement to enclose each of the elements in a containing element. I found suitable for my purpose. In the script function.search.php in the plugins directory, I modified the last line of the smarty_cms_function_search function to read ...
BTW: This is CMSMS 10.4.
As far as I can tell this doesn't cause any problem in validating the page as HTML 4.01 strict, not sure about other standards.
This works for me, but your mileage may differ.
Code: Select all
