Default installation of JBoss Portal 2.6.3 does not validate as correct XHTML and CSS
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBPORTAL-1874
URL: http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-1874
Project: JBoss Portal
Issue Type: Bug
Security Level: Public (Everyone can see)
Components: Portal Core
Affects Versions: 2.6.3 Final
Environment: Windows XP SP 2, Java 6u3, JBoss 4.2.2 GA
Reporter: Piotr Kubowicz
Assigned To: Julien Viet
After deploying downloaded JBoss Portal 2.6.3, the main page does not pass validation with
http://validator.w3.org/ and http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/. As result, some browsers
may not display parts of pages (since they are invalid). Also other themes and layouts
provided by default suffer from incompatibility with XHTML and CSS standards.
Anyone can see this running the validator on public portal demo (there are more error
messages when you log in and then run the validation).
There are too many reasons to enumerate, but some of them include:
- index.jsp in generic layout includes "/layouts/common/modal.jsp", which causes
CSS stylesheet usage declaration (<link rel="stylesheet") being pasted inside
<body> tag (sic!!!)
- in URLs there are plain ampersand signs
(IdentityUserPortletWindow?action=1&org.apache.myfaces), whilst all of them should be
changed to & entities
- omitting alt attribute and closing / in <img> element in standard portlets
- duplicate id attribute inserted by one of portlets on the main page (not visible in the
demo)
In default Renaissance theme CSS (http://skocz.pl/jbosscsserrors):
- using "font: 11px" instead of "font-size: 11px"
- illegal combination "background-color: none"
I suggest including phase of XHTML and CSS validation in JBoss Portal development
lifecycle because you will encounter such problems with every new release as good Java
programmers need not to be good web designers. Besides W3C validators, watch output of the
error console in your browser (Opera and Firefox do their job well), since it displays
errors in all CSS files used on page, not only in the main CSS, as well as JavaScript
errors.

------------------------------------------
Plus: in portal-serwer.war/login.jsp:
1) you cannot have method="POST", it should be method="post"
2) you cannot nest <div> element inside <label> element; it should be just the
opposite: <label> should be inside <div>

Can you please submit a patch tested against:
- IE 5.5
- IE 6
- IE 7
- FF Windows
- FF Linux
- Opera
- Safari
Or some of those, please ?
Also it mustn't break backward compatibility (ie: any stylesheet applied on those
templates must continue to work as before)

I have done testing on Opera 9.25, Firefox 2.07 and IE 7 on Windows XP, everything seems
fine. These are only cosmetic changes so I don't expect any problems with them.

This patch includes fixes from the previous patch to login.jsp page, but also:
- makes form id and name consistent
- add <title> tag, which is required in XHTML (and without it page URL is displayed
in browser tab title; this does not look good)
- fixes printing "display:" when no login error message is present (display
property has to have value)
- fixes printing "null" when no login error message is present (it is hidden,
but voice browsers will read it and users of text browsers will see it)
- makes the page ready for internationalisation
(http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-1911) by changing page encoding to UTF-8
