#161 tidy xhtml not strict
I am new to tidy, so please excuse me if this is not a
valid bug..I was trying to tidy up html and make a
valid xhtml (strict) file. Here is a testcase that
doesnt seem to pass the w3 validator.
If I use something like:
public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
String s = "<Html><body><![if test]><![endif]></body>";
ByteArrayInputStream tidyIn = new
ByteArrayInputStream(s.getBytes());
ByteArrayOutputStream tidyOut = new
ByteArrayOutputStream();
Tidy t = new Tidy();
t.setXHTML(true);
t.parse(tidyIn,tidyOut);
System.out.println(tidyOut.toString());
}
It gives me:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta name="generator" content="HTML Tidy for Java (vers. 26 Sep 2004), see
www.w3.org"/>

Tidy (vers Sep 26, 2004) Parsing "InputStream"
line 1 column 1 - Warning: missing <!DOCTYPE> declaration
line 1 column 7 - Warning: inserting missing 'title'
element
InputStream: Document content looks like HTML 2.0
2 warnings, no errors were found!
However, if I validate this against
http://validator.w3.org/
I get:

You have used character data somewhere it is not
permitted to appear. Mistakes that can cause this error
include putting text directly in the body of the
document without wrapping it in a container element
(such as aaragraph
) or forgetting to quote an
attribute value (where characters such as "%" and "/"
are common, but cannot appear without surrounding quotes). -
