[jira] Created: (TAPESTRY-935) Improve BASE tag for IE

Improve BASE tag for IE
-----------------------

         Key: TAPESTRY-935
         URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-935
     Project: Tapestry
        Type: Improvement

  Components: Framework  
    Versions: 4.0, 4.0.1, 4.0.2    
 Environment: IE 6
    Reporter: Andreas Andreou
 Assigned to: Andreas Andreou 
    Priority: Minor
     Fix For: 4.0.3


IE is very sensitive to the way the BASE tag is written. This can affect correct rendering of CSS rules + javascript execution.
See http://tacoscomponents.jot.com/BugReporter/Bug86 , http://drupal.org/node/44934 , http://mg.to/2006/04/29/your-body-is-in-your-head for more.

In a word, IE expects the BASE tag to be rendered as <base href='...'></base> .
We currently render it as <base href='...'/>

The cross-browser, XHTML + HTML4 compliant solution would render:
<base href='...'/><!--[if IE]></base><![endif]-->
