Link Manager 3.0 Support Thread

[rottiejoe]

Hi

I have a question with regard to markup validation errors due to links manager. Please see below;


# Error Line 147, Column 36: XML Parsing Error: attributes construct error.

<img src="images/Fashion.gif"alt="Fashion." title=" Fashion. " width="72"

# Error Line 147, Column 36: XML Parsing Error: Couldn't find end of Start Tag img line 147.

<img src="images/Fashion.gif"alt="Fashion." title=" Fashion. " width="72"

These are all due to links manager and although I have looked using my VERY limited PHP skills I cannot find the file which is causing these two errors to happen . Hope someone can help because the site otherwise is complient.

thanks

Rottie

URL for your site?

Hi
wwwveroniqueknitweardotcom

[clydejones]

on which page(s) is this happening?

Hi Clyde,
On the links page.

[clydejones]

I just checked the links category page and All of the links pages and HTML Tidy didn't show this warning anywhere.

The only warning I did see was about using &amp; instead of &.

So I'm not sure where it is coming from.

One place to look would be:

includes/functions/links.php

and check this line of code

$image = '<img src="' . zen_output_string($src) . '" alt="' . zen_output_string($alt) . '"';

Hi Clyde,

Changed this line of code to;
}
// alt is added to the img tag even if it is null to prevent browsers from outputting
// the image filename as default
$image = '<img src="' . zen_output_string($src) . '" alt="' . zen_output_string($alt) . '"';
if (zen_not_null($alt)) {
$image .= ' title=" ' . zen_output_string($alt) . ' "';
}

And everything is fine.
The code that was there on that line was;

}
// alt is added to the img tag even if it is null to prevent browsers from outputting
// the image filename as default
$image = '<img src="' . zen_output_string($src) . '"alt="' . zen_output_string($alt) . '"';
if (zen_not_null($alt)) {
$image .= ' title=" ' . zen_output_string($alt) . ' "';
}

very similar except for spaces. I have no idea why this brought up validation errors but it did using the validator at w3c.
Thanks for the help Clyde
