Xhtml Strict Validation problem

[trigger_tre]

Hello,

I am currently redesigning my pro-bono church site to comply with current xhtml strict doctype web standards.

So far I pass validation until I try to insert the calendar on a page.

With the calendar inserted I fail with one error and 2 warnings. I am not so worried about the warnings, however I would like to fix the error so that my pages can be xhtml strict valid.

I understand that version 7 should take care of this however, that could be awhile from now.

I dont mind trying to fix it myself however I can't even find the file If womeone could point me in the right direction I dont mind trying to fix myself.

Here is an example page that passes strict validation:
http://harvestwhitecounty.com/newtest.php

Here is an identical page that fails stict validation due to the calendar:
http://harvestwhitecounty.com/newtestnew.php

If you click the "Xhtml" link at the bottom it will automatically refer you to the w3-validator for that page.

thanks.

This most likely can't be changed in the current version.

How would you correct this? (I'd look it up but I'm not in my office at the moment).

I was affraid of that.

I will dig a little more, however waiting for v.7 seems inevitable.

Just to be sure. Will Version 7 take care of the validation errors?

I read the post on it but it wasnt very descriptive concerning being valid doctype or not.

thanks,

Version 7 will allow for more modification of the output through the use of templates. So you will be able to fix the template, whereas now the calendar is generated all from code which is encrypted and not modifyable.

I am definently looking forward to v.7

As for the new template system... I wonder if it also accounts for the login pages?

It would be nice to have the actually index.php login page look like the rest of the sitemy site. (just to keep with the ebb and flow)

I know I can change the header so that it looks similar but its not exactly the same.

There may be a few minor Version 6 updates (there's one on the horizon). Can you tell me what needs to be changed to make this work for you?

The only error I get comes from the Strict doctype not excepting the width attribute in your coding for one of the tables that has the class="dayNamesRow" (not sure if its for saturday or sunday)

The link to the w3.validator test of my page is HERE

The actual test page is below if you would like to look at the source.

Could the width that is added to the table in question simple be added to the CSS file instead? Or would that have adverse effects?

I'm out of the office until Monday. If you will, open a support ticket then so we can look at possible solutions.

Will do.

Like I said in the other post (saw this one after), as a quick fix you could do the following.

PHP Code:

ob_start();
require("calendar/calendar.php");
$obCalendar = ob_get_clean();
$obCalendar = str_replace(" width=\"14%\"", "", $obCalendar);
echo $obCalendar; 


I've tested it and it works (it removes the width) but I haven't tried to get it validated. If you can check and let me know if there's other places that make the validation fail.
