Summary0006796: Webpages generated do not produce "Valid HTML"
Description

Many warnings even errors are generated in almost all the pages. Certainly the pages work. But I find it important that all page validate if a DOCTYPE is used.

Additional Information

/main_page.php - After the name of the user in the title, there's an empty span begin generated.

This makes it impossible to refer to each element by a valid name and automate the application

midhat, if you are trying to automate the application, perhaps you'd be better off using the SOAP API included with version 1.1 and later? And if that's not good enough, you would surely be better off writing PHP scripts that directly access the Mantis API rather than screen scraping Mantis itself?

I agree with jreese suggestion. However, I think we should still provide valid XHTML. However, that said, I can't see us spending a lot of energy there. However, if you or others like to submit a patch, then we can apply it.

Hello,

I've fixed the empty span error (due to title being left blank for a page by default), along with a couple of other html/xhtml errors.
