I have demoed Tidy to a number of people in the past, and one of my
favorite
presentations is to take a single-line "document" containing only:
<li>This line starts with a bullet!
and running it through Tidy. A few days ago, I did this demo and saw
something
I had never seen before. Here is the XTHML it generates:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title></title> <body>
<ul style="margin-left: -2em">
<li>This line starts with a bullet!</li> </body>
</html>
Note the style attribute inserted into the ul element. ???
When viewed in the browser, it reads " line starts with a bullet" --
truncating
the word "This" as expected. Tidy wasn't given any options (like -clean).
I
trust this is just a bug -- I hope Tidy doesn't start inserting unrequested
style attributes into elements! :)
