HTML validation with struts tags

[Gezza Hall]

Hi guys.

I'm trying to get my HTML to validate to HTML standards, but my form elements are failing.

Example:
The following line in my code:

 <html:text name="myForm" property="myProp"/> 

translates to:

 <input type="text" name="myProp" value=""> 

This doesn't validate, as there is no closing slash, ie

 value="" /> 

Any suggestions please?

Hi

Try this :

<html:html xhtml="true">

Using this tag in a page tells all other html taglib tags to render themselves as XHTML 1.0.
As a result, the closing brace will be added when closing elements.

I believe the html struts tag has adhered to the HTML standards. The end tag for input element is not required, in fact I believe it is "forbidden".

Input Element

I am not sure if this is what you are asking. So I hope it helps.
