[Seaside] Questions regarding 2.7 deprecated api

[Michel Bany]

Hi,

I'm working on porting 2.7 to VW and I have questions about  
deprecated apis.
I checked the w3c dtd at http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1- 
transitional.dtd
(see WAHtmlRoot>>initialize) and found a couple of inconsistencies.

For instance

In the <table> element, attributes align and border are marked as  
deprecated
the dtd tells us they are valid.

In the <img> element, attributes border, width, height are marked as  
deprecated
the dtd tells us they are valid.

Even if Seaside was targeting for Strict XHTML 1.0, some of these  
deprecated
attributes would be valid.

What are the rationals ?

To me it looks as if the whole attribute stuff would deserve a redesign.
Would be nice if Seaside would use the real dtd to decide when to  
raise the
deprecated api exception and if Seaside would let developers decide  
what dtd
should be used (maybe no dtd at all to allow everything).

Michel.
