Bulletproof XHTML

Is your XHTML bulletproof?

Jacques Distler's is. So is Yuan-Chung Cheng's. Dave Shea's working on it.

Kosut: The MTValidate plugin.
Pilgrim: MIME-type negotiation for Python, PHP, and static pages.
Distler: MIME-type negotiation with Moveable Type.
Distler: Validating comments.
Distler: The StripControlChars plugin.
Distler: Selecting text filters for comments.
Cheung: Chaining text filters.
Cheung: Using Chinese characters and MathML with application/xhtml+xml. Whoa.

The day's just wasting away, isn't it?

Comments

Everyone on your list has something great for this. But for my weblog tool (it’s PHP driven) there isn’t any good plugin at the moment (I’m aware of Simon’s class). So I’m actually forced to edit the few comments I have by hand.

Not that those are invalid but I just don’t like the
. Besides that, abbreviations aren’t converted either.

BTW, I like your writings.

Thanks very much Anne!

You’re right — many of these links are pretty MT-centric. If you happen to run across any more articles that would be of general interest, let me know and I’ll post them here.
