Xhtml Strict Links Tip - A problem might accure

matak
If you try to put a link that has an & in your xHTML strict page, you need to change & to & in order for the page to be xHTML Strict..

eg..

I'm sorry I must be missing something, I don't see any difference between the two? it may be because of the browsers but idk.

Yes i edited the post, just replace the & with '&a m p;' bolded, without spaces..

But there is a problem to this though, although I think some php scripts fixed this, anyways, if your using php scripts that generate links and use them on your xhtml 1.0 strict page your going to come up with an error with the use of & and not coding it as such. also all xhtml validates that as an error if you use & instead of it's code when producing links, again if you code your php script properly then you won't have to worry about that error showing up.

@SM, you might provide explanation to how to avoid this error with PHP. urlencode() didn't work right for me. i read on w3 standards but it seems like you have to modify php.ini in order to avoid errors with these kind of links.
maybe just using preg_replace on your link generator script would be a good solution...

  8. Html And Xhtml - serving the right kind (11)
    Right now I have a site, which I've made XHTML 1.0 Strict. I am sending it as

    browsers. Anyway, I started thinking that I'd much rather send proper HTML 4.01 to browsers that
    don't understand XHTML instead of XHTML pretending to be HTML 4.01. It's not really a
    problem with IE, because it is made to handle badly written sites, but who knows, some browser that
    can handle HTML, but not XHTML, may be (correctly) parsing CODE <p> Hello <br />

  14. Encoding And Xhtml Requirements - (2)
    OK, so after reading a lot of contradicting information I decided to ask. How should document

    suggests the server should send the encoding in the content-type header. The problem with this that
    I see is that you can't always make a blanket judgment about what encoding pages will be in. Is
    it simply suggested to use .htaccess files (or equivalent) for this, then? I am led to believe that
    most (all?) browsers will ignore a content-type meta tag. Is there another in-file o...

    and right row with the input tag) and those rows aligned to look nice (left row= right aligned and
    right row=left aligned), how can we keep order with our fancy style sheet? Thanks in advance....

  22. Xhtml Dtd - can you set it up? (5)
    Can you set up the document type definition in order to create your own tags in XHTML? (Just as it
    happens with XML). I have been learning XML and DTD, and as i actually DO find it useful, i think
    its even more useful the fact that a language (like HTML) already strongly accepted, has its own
    structures defined. Its just sometimes you need to add a little adjustment here and there. So i
    ask if theres a way to define this in XHTML, your structures of tags and attributes and all that. I

    add another page or anything, I dont want to have to open 8 pages and make the change to all of
    them. Is there another way, like having some kind of external style sheet, and bieng able to update
    that and have it carry over to all the other pages? As far as I understand, you can only have CSS
    code in a external stylesheet, and all the link infomation is in the actual page itself....
