How to modify a page

This site contains general information about HTML, but mostly it contains help for the following:

• HTML_Tidy errors and warnings,
• Accessibility warnings,
• OpenSP errors and warnings.

Currently a lot of OpenSP and Accessibility pages have missing samples or unclear descriptions. You are welcome to contribute and improve these pages, or you may add a new page for topics that interest you about HTML. To do this, click on the EDIT tab on the top of each page.

Wiki Page Structure

When editing a page, please follow these guidelines. For the following errors, the structure of the page is the same:

1. Title: There should be an error title on the top of the page
2. Cause: A cause that explains the reason for the error
3. Example: Some error samples. Often a bad sample and a good one that show how to correct the error will suffice
4. Solution: A short description of the fix for this error
5. References: URL References to W3C specifications or other interesting links about the topic.

Here is an example structure using the Wiki markup:

== Title == === Cause: === Describe the cause of the problem here. === Example: === <bad>A sample showing incorrect syntax</bad> <good>A sample showing corrected syntax</good> === Solution: === Describe the solution (or solutions) here. === References: === * Describe the link: http://link.goes.here/

Wiki Markup

The pages use a standard Wiki syntax. For a quick help, look at:

• Wikipedia Cheatsheet: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Cheatsheet
• Wikipedia Help: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Contents
• MediaWiki Full help: http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Wikitext

In addition to the above syntax links, and 2 tags: <good>, <bad> for showing the good and bad samples.

You can of course ask questions in the DISCUSSION Tab of the error if the page is not clear.

Test
