XHTML support in Aida 6.0

Dear all,

I just added the XHTML support to Aida and now the website in new design
http://aida.eranova.si:8000/, which is done in XHTML 1.0 Transitional,
pass the HTML validation 100%.

Default webpage doctype is HTML 4.01 Transitional, but you can set in
your App the doctypes with following methods:

* setHTML401Strict
* setHTML401Transitional
* setXHTML10Strict
* setXHTML10Transitional

You can even mix doctypes in your app, every view can have its own doctype.

In case of XHTML doctype, the HTML code will be generated properly, with
self closing tags ( /> ) where appropriate (like in page breaks: <br/> )

There is also a method WebElement>>isXHTML to check, when you are
composing the XHTML page and when a HTML one.

Best regards
Janko

Very good and very important for interfacing to post-processing tools.

Thanks, Janko.

Hi Janko,

I don't have time to look at the code right now, but how do elements
render HTML 4 or XHTML? Is there an external XHTMLELements package or
something?

Cheers!

Nico

No, you just set a page to be XHTML and all elements will know how to
render correctly for XHTML. Which means mostly to close the standalone
tags like IMG and BR with /> instead of > .

Look at method #tagClosing to see, how is this implemented in practice.
