Two little bugs

Post by maravizzo »

Hi,
First of all I want to say that I'm enjoing very much the new version of HTMLpad, it's really great.

I found two bugs:
1) When working in XHTML if I insert an image from the image button it works correctly with the "/>" end, but if I insert it from the file explorer it ends with the HTML "border="0">"

2) When working with very long pages it happens that the scrollbar reach the end before the page ends (see image below): then one has to select the text to scroll down. I noticed this problem also in the previous version. It happens often but not allways: I haven't understood what cause it exactly... I'm using windows XP sp1

I could not reproduce the problem. As soon as you can provide exact steps to reproduce this, I believe we will be able to fix it right away.

File explorer currently allows you to drag files in. You can use Cut / Copy commands from the context menu to muve the file around the folders.

I am still not able to reproduce scrollbar problem. Please if you encounter this again, send me the file.

Any progress on the border="0" when dragging images from the explorer in xhtml strict? It correctly closes the img tag but it still inserts border="0" instead of alt="".

I know this has been brought up a number of times. It's no big deal but it would be nice to have it corrected.

Thanks,
Will

What's wrong with having border="0" ? I like it, I use it and it seems okay to me...

Now for alt, although it is required by standard, many (most) developers do not use it, so I would not like to force it.

Now there is another way, to make this selectable (as an option) but it is a new feature and would take some time... after more important things are done.

Instead of on/off option(s), maybe you can let the user specify the exact set of attributes as a string. Of course, when the feature bubbles up to the top of the list.

Not to be a butthead but 'border' has been deprecated since html 4 and alt is required for all xhtml doctypes - whether developers use it or not. I have no 'problem' with border, I'd just like it not to show up when the document is in an XHTML mode. Seems like everything else in the program magically knows when the doc is XHTML and inserts things accordingly. this is the only exception that I know of.

Thank you,
Will
