Patch against the CVS REL1_4 code. (1.44 KB, patch)

Description Anders Wegge Jakobsen 2005-02-03 07:04:48 UTC
Apparently the W3C validator does not like an empty <ul></ul> pair.
The URL above will lead to the validation page. The problem lies within
CategoryPage.php, where an <ul> is emitted at the start of each column on
the page. Each time a starting letter is put into the column, the list is closed
with </ul>, and reopened again with <ul>. This is a problem at the
start of each column, since this leads to en empty <ul></ul>. The
attached patch against CVS REL1_4 solves this problem.

And yes, this is a minor cosmetic issue, but as I claimed that MW code was clean
on a danish webdesign newsgroup, I had to fix this, at least on my own Wiki. The
patch is already installed on my test Wiki,
<http://playwiki.wegge.dk/Kategori:Teknik> without problems.
