In preparing for the Douai release, I noticed that HTML validation was not being
performed on anthology build products; that’s something I’m going to have to add. Did
a manual validation on Douai, and fixed lots of issues in their CSS and their template
file. Also tried validating with the latest unstable beta release of vnu.jar and found it
is complaining about upper-case letters in data-* attribute names; this is a legitimate
concern, so I’ve written and tested a function that will convert e.g. a TEI copyOf
attribute to data-copy-of; once this release is done, I’ll switch that in and
deal with the fallout, which will be significant.
On Thursday did more passes through CSS looking for errors; a couple were fixed. Simplified the search page for Douai by suppressing filters with only one member, and removed an obsolete version of vnu.jar from the repo.
On Friday, fixed an overnight validation problem and consulted with NH on an identity transform.
