["Michael Jumper (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Michael Jumper commented on GUACAMOLE-367:

app missing closing tag on the following element:

{code:html}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="app.css?v=0.9.13-incubating">
{code}
{quote}

The end tag is not missing here, as the {{<link>}} tag in HTML5 is self-closing. The end tag is intentionally omitted. See:

{code}

This is odd. Assuming that this is due to the HTML not having an end tag for each {{<link>}}, it doesn't make sense that the HTML would be being sent through an XML validator at the Java side. The HTML is not XML, nor does the server side of the webapp need to parse its own client-side content. Only the browser need parse that.

Could your CAS server perhaps be set up incorrectly, responding with HTML from an endpoint which CAS expects to respond with XML?
