You can get DNNMEnu XHTML compliant, but there was a problem with a previous version, where it rendered non XHTML compliant content for the W3C validator.

The default skin only has warnings, no Errors.

So the XHTML a browser sees was compliant but the output to the validator wasn't (it was treated as a "down level browser")

Should be fixed in DNN 5.1.1, but toi be honest I did not check it yet.. (I use the HTML Validator extension for FF to do my testing)

Just found this excellent templated menu, I simply loved it:

Yep, that was it. I upgraded the site to 5.1.1 and after a minor panic attack when I lost my Nav, I got it straight and the page is now passing W3C with only one error, and that's getting generated by a third party module whose developer has already offered to take a look and resolve the 'issue' (W3C is complaining about an attribute being capitalized).

Been waiting a loooong time to play with DNNNav 2.0 and the new class selectors!

I had actually forgotten about that video. I'd watched it way back when DNNNav 2 was in beta, guess I have some homework over the weekend.

One other question - I'd mentioned this in an earlier thread, but I keep getting an annoying dotted-border around my DNNNav object when the mouse is clicked (verified as showing in Firefox 3.5.1). A site displaying this can be found at http://smc.dev.netmds.com (I'm not thrilled with the look, but a committee made the decisions, not me).

The code for the menu (both ASCX token and CSS Styles) were adapted from Lee Sykes' recent article on styling DNNNav, but I've seen this effect before in my style-from-scratch DNNNav elements. I've checked the code against the Extropy skin, and I don't see any styles that could create such an effect, like a border style. It reminds me alot of the box we'd see back when the object/embed issue was being addressed with Flash media a couple years back... Thoughts?

Quick Update:  I tried a couple tricks, the a:focus { border:0; } trick, and tried focusing the CSS selector more precisely, but the way I've fixed it (for now, I guess) was to add:   * {border:0;} to my skin.css file. I'm hoping this doesn't cascade badly and cause more problems, but it works for now I guess.

Try this:

/* get rid of those system borders being generated for A tags */
a:active {
  outline:none;
}

:focus {
  -moz-outline-style:none;
}
