ISSUE-54: tools that can't generate <!DOCTYPE html>

doctype-legacy-compat

tools that can't generate <!DOCTYPE html>

State:
CLOSED
Product:
HTML 5 spec
Raised by:
Julian Reschke
Opened on:
2008-06-26
Description:
Of XSLT's output modes (XML/HTML/TEXT), none can currently be used to produce the HTML5 doctype string, as defined in <http://www.w3.org/html/wg/html5/#the-doctype>.

Obviously it would be good if XSLT can be used to generate valid HTML5 documents.

Thus, either the current (required) doc type in HTML5 should be reconsidered, or XSLT should be updated to support an HTML5 output mode.

See also <http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=5803>.

We seem to have consensus:

ISSUE-54: <!DOCTYPE HTML SYSTEM "about:legacy-compat">
30 Jan 2009 08:26:23 +0000

Ian Hickson notes that he updated the spec on Jan 30th, 2009 to use the "about:legacy-compat" approach:

Quirks mode testing data for various doctype strings:
http://philip.html5.org/data/doctypes.html

Shawn Medero, 4 Sep 2008, 16:26:40

There was concern on the 2008-08-04 telecon that a potential doctype string would have quirks mode issues: http://krijnhoetmer.nl/irc-logs/html-wg/20080904#l-287

Using Philip's test (http://philip.html5.org/data/doctypes.html) this string:

<!doctype html public "">

limited-quirks: IE 6, IE 7
non-quirks: FireFox 3, Safari 4, and IE 8 Beta 2

Shawn Medero, 4 Sep 2008, 16:39:44

One more test:

non-quirks: Opera 9.52

Shawn Medero, 4 Sep 2008, 16:45:20

Testing with the http://software.hixie.ch/utilities/js/live-dom-viewer/

<!doctype html>, I see the following results:

rendering mode:
CSS1Compat: IE 6, IE 8 beta 2, Firefox 3, Safari 4 developer preview, Opera 9.52

<!doctype html public="">, I see the following results:

rendering mode:
CSS1Compat: IE 6, IE 8 beta 2, Opera 9.52
BackCompat: Firefox 3, Safari 4 developer preview

* Notes: Regarding IE 8 beta 2, I did the test with "compatibility mode" on & off - same results.

Shawn Medero, 4 Sep 2008, 17:35:41

Julian Reschke has found info on a similar problem with ASP.NET -- need a pointer still.

Shawn Medero, 23 Oct 2008, 08:24:06

http://www.contentwithstyle.co.uk/content/xslt-and-html-5-problems

"Problem is: XSLT 1.0 doesn't support the HTML 5 to generate a doctype, and the output encoding meta tag that it selfishly applies is not valid in HTML 5 either. Any ideas anyone?"

Original plus comments shed light on what authors are doing.

Shawn Medero, 12 Dec 2008, 21:12:13

Julian opened this bug: http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6336

Shawn Medero, 8 Jan 2009, 17:37:01

It is been suggested that this issue effects the .NET toolkit... but we need more info as to what the problem is. Julian originally bought this to our attention... probably best to ping him again.

Shawn Medero, 8 Jan 2009, 17:40:50

updating to pending review, since we seem to have consensus around the 30 Jan proposal

Dan Connolly, 19 Feb 2009, 04:50:12

The consensus is likely conditional on the registration being performed. Next action is to get registration; if that doesn't happen we will re-evaluate design.
