[jira] Commented: (DOXIA-131) HtmlTools.encodeId makes id lower case

    [ http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/DOXIA-131?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_103870 ] 

Dennis Lundberg commented on DOXIA-131:
---------------------------------------

I have checked the different standards and have not found any evidence that ids need to be lower case. So I added a test case and changed encodeId() to not change case anymore. I also added tons of JavaDoc.

Is that enough or did you have any other documentation in mind, Lukas?

> HtmlTools.encodeId uses Character.toLowerCase to convert its argument to lower case. I don't see the reason for that since upper case characters are legal in id's (see http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/types.html#type-name ). In particular, it's a problem with anchors/links in the xhtml sink (see DOXIA-47 ), especially if we want to create anchors from section names, to maintain backward compatibility with m1. Is there a special reason for the toLowerCase or can we remove it?
