#51 NUnitASp performs web requests when using XHTML
Hi, I'm using a verion that I built by compiing the
HEAD from the souce code in CVS and I turned on a
sniffer and found out that when my ASP.net 2.0 pages
are set to use XHTML 1.0 like this:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xht
ml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
...
</html>
NUnitAsp makes the following reuqests to the web:
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-lat1.ent
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-symbol.ent
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml-special.ent
XHTML is the default for ASP.Net 2.0 pages, if I
change back the DOCTYPE to DHTML 4.0 like this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0
Transitional//EN">
<html>
...
</html>
Then the problem goes away. The issue is that we
would loke to use XHTML but all those extra web
requests end up slowing down the tests.
Cheers

This bug is related to bug 1027754.
I'm seeing similar problems that manifest as a DTD
validation error ("The remote name could not be resolved")
when I use NUnitAsp offline (no internet connection). I'm
guessing that adding the DTDs programmatically somehow to
the XmlDocument so it can resolve them when it calls Load
would fix this bug (no longer needing to make outside
calls to resolve the DTD), and also eliminate the issue in
bug 1027754 where it fails to parse a given DTD.

I found that NUnit.Extensions.Asp.WebPage.ParsePageText()
can be modified with a null XmlResolver to fix this issue:
try
{
this.document.XmlResolver = null; // <-- add this line
this.document.Load(reader1);
}
turns out others on the web have had this problem and used
this approach to fix it.

When the machine has no internet connection, these request will result in an obscure failure of all tests:
NUnit.Extensions.Asp.DoctypeDtdException :
Problems with DOCTYPE DTD: <Timeout für Vorgang überschritten>. Your DOCTYPE is
probably incorrect. If you're not sure what the DOCTYPE should be, use <!DOCTY
PE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN" >, Visual Studio .NET's d
efault.
