AppendHTML() w3.org Validation

[info@isis.it]

Hi,
i have a problem with the method appendHTML(), specifically with the w3 validation. It can happen that sometimes there is not valid html (For example: <p>Text....<p></ p></ p>),and then the page is in error:

Code: Select all

The element 'p' in namespace 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml' has invalid child element 'p' in namespace 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'. List of possible elements expected: 'http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:a http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:br http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:span http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:bdo http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:object http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:applet http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:img http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:map http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:iframe http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:tt http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:i http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:b http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:u http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:s http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:strike http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:big http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:small http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:font http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:basefont http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:em http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:strong http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:dfn http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:code http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:q http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:samp http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:kbd http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:var http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:cite http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:abbr http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml:acronym http://www.w3....

My question is whether it is possible to bypass this control or manage it in some way ?
In addition, there is a method to check if the text is OK or not to w3 validation? So we can periodically clean the database without the user crashed the system

Thank you

Hi,

Thanks for your inquiry.
It looks like your html code is not well-form. You can try this code

Code: Select all

doc.XHTMLValidateOption = Spire.Doc.Documents.XHTMLValidationType.None;


before calling AppendHTML() method. But I'm afraid that this error will occur still. Because the tag </ p> cann't be parsed. It means that you need to correct your html code. You can try

Code: Select all

html = Regex.Replace(html, @"\</\s*(\w+)\s*\>", "</$1>");


or other regex to fix it.
