Xurion Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 Hi all. I know this isn't a problem but I'm curious how I would remedy this warning I am recieving when I validate my xhtml in w3's html validator. The warning concerns the charset for "Direct Input" elements (basically text fields) on the page. This is the warning I get: Unlike the “by URI” and “by File Upload” modes, the “Direct Input” mode of the validator provides validated content in the form of characters pasted or typed in the validator's form field. This will automatically make the data UTF-8, and therefore the validator does not need to determine the character encoding of your document, and will ignore any charset information specified. If you notice a discrepancy in detected character encoding between the the “Direct Input” mode and other validator modes, this is likely to be the reason. It is neither a bug in the validator, nor in your document. I'm looking for a way to get around this warning. I'm quite thorough when it comes to validation, and this is the only thing left. Does anyone know how to prevent this warning? Thanks in advance Xur~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
