RE: Failure due to generating markup using document.write() or ...

Hi Christophe 

I'm not sure I understand your email

1) What action are you recommending?

2) What does  " But the current failure has not been accepted, eventually."
mean? 

Thanks 

Gregg

Subject: Failure due to generating markup using document.write() or ...



In 4.1.2 we have a "Failure due to generating markup using document.write()
or document.writeln() to write unparsed content" (previous name: "Failure
due to generating markup using methods for writing unparsed content"). 
Apparently, document.write() does not cause problems as long as the html
that is inserted is well-formed and semantically correct. There are problems
when you use client-side script to generate HTML that doesn't meet the
guidelines in some way, or modifying good HTML code in a way so that it no
longer meets the guidelines. This is very general, unless you create one
such (scripting) failure for every success criterion where it is applicable.
But the current failure has not been accepted, eventually.

Regards,

Christophe
