-## html validation
-
- * A doctype should be added: do we want XHTML 1.0 or HTML 4.01 Trans as
- default?
-
- Need to choose a doctype that corresponds to what [[MarkDown]]
- generates. For example, it does generate <hr />
- So xhtml seems a good fit and I'm going to add that to the
- templates.
-
- One consideration of course is that regular users might embed html
- that uses deprecated presentational elements like <center>. At
- least firefox seems to handle that mixture ok.

-
- * If XHTML: In templates <hr> should become <hr /> etc.
-
- Done --[[Joey]]
-
- * Image wikilinks should provide an alt text (maybe '$filname wiki-image'?).
-
- Now it will be the text of the [[WikiLink]], which even allows
- setting a custom alt text like this: \[[my_alt_text|image.png]]

-
- * &'s in (cgi-)url's must be escaped as &amp;.
-
- Fixed --[[Joey]]
-
- * [ [inlinepage] ] gets wrapped in <p>...</p> which has a high chance of invalidating the page.
-
- Since markdown does this, the only way I can think to fix it is to
- make the inlined page text start with </p> and end with
- <p>. Ugly, and of course there could be problems with
- markdown enclosing it in other spanning tags in some cases.
- I've implemented this hack now. :-/ --[[Joey]]
-
-This page is now valid.
