Hello,
I am trying to validate some jsp pages and keep coming up against one
problem. I have some form tags that are being generated by the Struts html
lag library. The problem, when I run the source through the W3C html
validator is that it keeps saying that the attribute name is invalid for the
given doctype. However, when I check the w3scools html 4.01 reference, it
says that name is a valid attribute for the form tag.
Now for a little background.
Here is the doctype that I am using:
<!doctype html public "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
here is the error that the validator is displaying:
Line 130, column 11: there is no attribute "NAME"
<form name="PartySearchForm" method="POST" action="foo.html">
I always thought that name was a valid attribute. Any ideas what is going on
here?
