Any help on how to make the Announcements Module W3C compliant? The error message I've been getting is complaining about the &tabid instead of &tabid and I have no idea where to change that. It might not even be related directly to the Announcements module but to the way DNN is handling the link building.

Thanks!

Alessandra

what versions of dnn and the annoucement modules are you running? If you're running a version prior to  4.06.02  of announcements I recommend upgrading (The 4.06.02 version of announcements is marked as xhtml compliant (http://www.dotnetnuke.com/tabid/125/default.aspx) )

I seem to recall the & change was made quite a few versions of dotnetnuke back, what version are you running?

duh, i meant the 04.00.01 version (it requires 04.06.02 as a minimum dnn version). I'm not sure what's happening, as I thought that that version of dnn in combination with that version of the announcements module should be xhtml compliant (at least in the public face) e.g. take a look at http://www.dotnetnuke.com/tabid/125/default.aspx, if you view the source you'll see the linkclick requests all use the correct encodings. Please make sure you haven't simply posted static text.. If you still have problems please record the problems at the public issue tracker @ support.dotnetnuke.com so someone can take a look at it for a future release.

I thought so too, that why I was so surprised to find that out. The link you send above indeed has the LinkClick.aspx encoded, but this page doesn't have the Announcements module in it. If you see this page: http://www.dotnetnuke.com/News/Announcements/tabid/703/Default.aspx, you will see the LinkClick does not encode.

Warning Line 155, Column 672: cannot generate system identifier for general entity "tabid"

…w_submissiondetails.aspx%3fid%3d247&tabid=703&mid=1344" target="_self">read m

An entity reference was found in the document, but there is no reference by that name defined. Often this is caused by misspelling the reference name, unencoded ampersands, or by leaving off the trailing semicolon (;). The most common cause of this error is unencoded ampersands in URLs as described by the WDG in "Ampersands in URLs".

Total pain. I know...
