Bug Report: there is no accept-charsets attribute in form!

Post by Charybdis »

Version: HTML Pad 2007 8.3.1.81

Auto-completion inserts the accept-charsets attribute in forms, but it should insert accept-charset instead.

Wrong:

Code: Select all

<form action="http://www.example.com/tm/?md=register" method="post" accept-charsets="ISO-8859-2">
Correct:

Code: Select all

<form action="http://www.example.com/tm/?md=register" method="post" accept-charset="ISO-8859-2">
Very, very annoying bug.

Yes, you are right in that the only choice in the auto-complete menu is accept-charsets. As far as I know, this is valid XML code that allows listing more than one accept-charset tag. Perhaps there should be two choices in WB, accept-charset and accept-charsets.

Accept-charsets did not work for me in plain HTML. However accept-charset works.

So this could mislead people, and they will not know why does not work the character encoding (because they assume that accept-charsets if valid).

Agreed, this should be changed, unless there is a valid reason I don't know about.
