> Struts 2 forms with the XHTML template seem to have some XHTML compliancy problems.
> The <s:submit> tag inside <s:form> produces invalid XHTML. The submit tag produces code like this:
> <td colspan="2">
>   <div align="right"><input type="submit" id="SettingsSubmit_0" value="Submit"/></div>
> </td>
> The problem is that the "align" attribute of the div tag is deprecated since HTML 4.01 and is not valid XHTML. This can be fixed by including the align attribute to the td tag as such:
> <td colspan="2" align="right">
> Using validation in forms produces invalid XHTML code. The required attribute "type" not specified in the produced script tag:
> <script src="/../struts/xhtml/validation.js"></script>
> This can be corrected by including the type attribute as such:
> <script src="/../struts/xhtml/validation.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
> The form tag generates this code:
> <form namespace="/pages/webui" id="SettingsSubmit" name="SettingsSubmit" onsubmit="return validateForm_SettingsSubmit();" action="/../SettingsSubmit.jspa" method="POST">
> There are some problems here:
> 1. There are no "name" attribute in XHTML. This can be fixed by removing it completely and only using "id".
> 2. There is no "namespace" attribute in XHTML. I don't know how this can be fixed. I use an edited template that does not produce the "namespace" attribute at all.
> 3. "POST" should be written in lowercase, i.e. "post".
> All of these issues can be fixed by editing the XHTML template files. I can provide my own modifications if needed.
