Re: P3P Implementation Problems

Mr. Boyle,

The fourth line of your policy reference file is like:
<POLICY-REF about="http://www.1to1.com/w3c/policy.p3p">

Could you change it to:
<POLICY-REF about="http://www.1to1.com/w3c/policy.p3p#1to1.com Privacy Policy">

Then, it would become P3P-compatible.
(And, the validator would accept it.)

"#1to1.com Privacy Policy" is the value of `name` attribute of
the <POLICY> element.
(Multiple <POLICY> elements can be included in a <POLICIES> element.
 So, you need to use fragment identifier to specify a certain <POLICY> element.)

    Regards,

Subject: P3P Implementation Problems


I recently generated a privacy policy and I am trying to implement it on my website.  I have stored the reference file as
/W3C/p3p.xml and the full policy as /W3C/policy.xml.  I have even added links within my index page as suggested.  However when i go
to validate my page i get the error :
"/w3c/p3p.xml has some warnings or errors.
Error: The URI fragment identifier (#xxx) is necessary to specify a POLICY element in a POLICIES element"
Any suggestions?
My reference file is as follows:
<?xml version="1.0" ?>
- <META xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2001/09/P3Pv1">
- <POLICY-REFERENCES>
- <POLICY-REF about=http://www.1to1.com/w3c/policy.xml>
  <INCLUDE>\*</INCLUDE>
  <COOKIE-INCLUDE name="*" value="*" domain="*" path="*" />
  </POLICY-REF>
  </POLICY-REFERENCES>
  </META>
