I wrote a module in DNN 3.2, works great, the boss says move it to DNN 4. So I download the 4.0.3 source, mainly because I'm not yet confident enough in my DNN ability and shy away from anything that says "release candidate" like 4.3.2.

When I compile the source, I get a ton of hydra-headed errors - fix 10, recompile, and 20 more appear. Things like "<br>" now needs the closing "/", "cellPadding" contains upper case letters, stuff like that. Sure, I can take several hours and fix them all, or try to do a mass find-and-replace which I usually manage to screw up just enough that finding and fixing THOSE problems consumes the time I saved by using the mass replace.

Anyway, am I missing a setting in VS or something? DNN is so cool, but if everybody else gets these types of errors, then somebody (even me) ought to volunteer to load up a cleaned-up version of the source. Somebody please tell me I'm doing something wrong...

Thanks.

I suspect that you tried to compile the site with xhtml compliance enabled (either via the drop-down or in the web.config ) . At present we use legacy, so if you an xhtml DTD setting then you get warnings.
