Hi all,
I'm trying to figure out how to format the body of annotations for
annozilla, and there doesn't seem to be a standard in place. Right now,
Amaya 7.1 is creating annotation bodies that look like:
<html>
<head>
<title>Annotation of whatever</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>some body text goes here</p>
</body>
</html>
this sort of annotation 1) has no doctype and 2) has no namespace. as
such, when annotest.w3.org serves this document up with mimetype
"application/xhtml+xml", poor mozilla becomes utterly confused. seeing a
standards-compliant mimetype, it tries to render in standards compliance
mode. however, without a namespace and/or doctype, there's no styling
info, and the whole process gets hosed.
so, I suggest that we have our clients, especially amaya, put a namespace
and/or doctype in the body html.
what do you all think?
regards,
Doug
