Description Jay Priest 2004-03-10 11:36:34 UTC
Description of problem:
I changed the site output to XHTML and all is fine except when 
customising a portlet. The page only partially loads, and the bebop 
stylesheets [used by the portlet custom app] cause the rest of the 
page HTML to load in the customise text-area.

I havent an example, as camden wanted me to revert back to HTML 
output, but when you come to have a look at this, contact me and I'll 
temporarily change the workspace-index.xsl to XHML output to demo.

NB> This was in a 'theme' on the camden staging box

We recommend against outputting XHTML since it offers no concrete
benefits over HTML 4.0 and it has less widespread browser support.
Also, with free text entry fields (eg CMS body text) users will not
typically take care to enter XHTML, so the resulting complete pages
will not be wellformed even if the HTML from XSL template is.

If there are specific XSL changes you can provide, we can incorporate
them, but otherwise I'll close this as not a bug.

cheers Dan

thats cool - we had chosen HTML 4 for camden & generic templates - 
for the same reasons as you highlight, just that Arturo suggested I 
query
