I just commited DOCTYPE sniffing (for the sake of bug-meter error-message accuracy). This is still in state of flux, but at least now the unescaped & inside URIs error messages that crowded the bug meter (aka. unrecognized entities) only appear for HTML4.01 and XHTML.
Hi Jorge, escaping special characters inside attribute values is required for older versions of HTML as well. Hence, I think Dillo should report these errors for all HTML version, maybe apart from "tag soup", i.e., HTML documents without doctype. (According to the HTML 2.0 spec, an HTML document without doctype shall be treated as HTML 2.0, but I don't know if anyone ever cared about this.) Maybe one could reduce the number of error messages, for example by reporting only the number of unescaped "&" inside each URI or by showing only the first such error etc.
The same code can serve for better checking XHTML.
Yes, this could be done, in particular if Dillo accepted XHTML served as such and not as text/html.
Has anyone more feedback with the new FLTK2 GUI downloads dpi?
