s9y 0.9-alpha2 output is NOT valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional

[infynyteloop]

Hi,

I upgarded from 0.8 to the latest nightly of 0.9 yesterday.

With 0.8 my blog ( http://serendipity.thoughtfulchaos.com/ ) used to validate cleanly as XHTML 1.0 Transitional but with 0.9 it does not. Check out http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1 ... chaos.com/

The problem is in the HTML code for the form for selecting multiple categories. The method should be 'post' and NOT 'POST'. I spent 5 minutes trying to pinpoint where this piece of code resides but since I am not familiar with s9y internals I failed.

Could you please look into this? (btw where does that piece of code reside?)

There is 1 more problem I noticed with the new multiple categories feature. When multiple categories are selected and the 'Go!' button clicked the resulting page shows posts from all the selected categories but the page title shows only the 1st category that was selected. Can it be changed to reflect all the selected catgories?

Thanks.

P.S. My site is still strictly beta so dont pay too much attention to the mess.

P.P.S This is the right place to post such things, isn't it?

Hi!

Thanks a lot for letting me know about this issue. I have fixed and committed it. The file to lookout is in include/plugin_internal.inc.php

The title of the multi-category page can be changed, it is a thing left on our todo-list and just needs some poking and picking. If you care to investigate, the fix needs to be made in index.php around line 279

And yes, you definitely picked the right forum here, thanks!

Regards,
Garvin

I like your template...any chance of making it downloadable?

[garvinhicking]

No, I'm sorry. That template is for myself only

But great to hear that you like it
