[TYPO3-project-formidable] FORMIdable & XHTML

[Luc Muller]

Yep...

we already think about that *a lot*
some people go crazy about this point, now they're under medications... some 
other... well...

In fact some people... at the W3C "randomly" decided that you CAN'T use 
"["and "]" in you Id's
but some other people thought that using "[" and "]" could easily turn POST 
vars into table... this is used in FORMidable

in this way... FORMidable can be fully valide at the W3C except for the ID's 
points

except the facts some people says that we can't use those chars, FORM 
validates everypoints of the W3C...
id's stuff do not makes accessibity problems...

we're just wondering WHY did the W3C takes a such standard... if any's got 
ID, but when validating, you can see that it just not respect any writing 
conventions... no semantic problems or strutural problems just non 
conventional...
