<font size="2" face="sans-serif">[running eprints 3.3.13]</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">on our way adding bootstrap to our repo, we stumbled over the DOCTYPE declaration. While </font><a href="https://validator.w3.org/"><font size="2" face="sans-serif">https://validator.w3.org</font></a><font size="2" face="sans-serif"> reports ARIA-caused errors (unknown role=nav stuff), </font><a href="https://validator.w3.org/nu/"><font size="2" face="sans-serif">https://validator.w3.org/nu/</font></a><font size="2" face="sans-serif"> shows (correctly), that the XHTML-Transitional declaration used in EP3.3.x is not HTML5 conformant and we should better reduce to </font><tt><font size="3"><!DOCTYPE html></font></tt><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">So what do you think?</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">- Where is the right place to change the DOCTYPE best? It seems that the module perl_lib/EPrints/XHTML.pm changes the DOCTYPE declaration in the default.xml template to</font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif"><!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "</font><a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"><font size="2" face="sans-serif">http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd</font></a><font size="2" face="sans-serif">"></font><br>
<br>
<font size="2" face="sans-serif">- Should EPrints support HTML5 in future versions? (EPrints 3.4)</font><br>
