Title: Website Help!
Post by: Alice on March 29, 2007, 09:40:13 AM
What does this mean?

XML error message: The value of attribute "href" associated with an element type "link" must not contain the '<' character.

go into your code and delete all the "<'s"  What could go wrong?

XML error message: The value of attribute "href" associated with an element type "a" must not contain the '<' character.

when you have in your template code of this type :

<a href="<data:post.url/>">Read more!</a>

To correct this error change the code to the following :

<a expr:href='data:post.url'>Read more!</a>

Thanks dazie.  That kind of explains it, but not really.  I found that too - changed what it said to change and still got the error.

I've given up and started using crappy HTML and fudging things.

Do who for what?   Yeah XML/XHTML requires the markup to be correct.  HTML was "flexible" and browsers have do deal with whatever HTML they get as gracefully as possible.

I would guess that you have a missing quote within the <link> tag it is complaining about.  If you actually need to use a < within the href attribute, you need to use %3c in its place so it doesn't cause the XML parser to bitch.
