[jira] Closed: (TAPESTRY-585) $ signs in generated element names / ids are illegal in XHTML

     [ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-585?page=all ]
     
Howard M. Lewis Ship closed TAPESTRY-585:
-----------------------------------------

    Fix Version: 4.0
     Resolution: Fixed

Did a lot of scattered work to identify where the $ was getting introduced and to remove it.  Leading '$' are not allowed and are stripped out, other dollar signs are converted to underscores.

Where Tapestry used a '$', it now (generally) uses an '_'.  However,
'_' is not allowed at the start of a NMTOKEN, so those are simply
removed.

Out of curiosity, what happens when there's a name clash?  I can
envision some apps relying on the $ being used in anonymous component
IDs that may break.

To a lesser extent, I know some of my HtmlUnit tests are going to
require changes because they expect the $x suffix for components
declared in loops.

In any event, I would probably make this change a prominent note in the
beta 5 release.
