nowrap not XHTML 1.0 compliant

[Kevin Lawrence]

Hi

What should be used instead of nowrap in a table cell? VS2005 advises me
to use a newer construct...

Thanks

I just googled "xhtml 1.0 nowrap" and found this page
http://www.blooberry.com/indexdot/history/xhtml.htm

which says
Stand-alone attributes must be expanded (eg: <td nowrap>cell</td> becomes
<td nowrap="nowrap">cell</td>)

it might just be that you need to do nowrap="nowrap" to be compliant. Not
sure.

I am sure that standalone attributes aren't XML (and thus XHTML) compliant.
All attributes must have a quote-enclosed value, and I do know that for HTML
standalone attributes, the XHTML rule is to assign the attribute as the
value, so I think it'll solve ur problem.

I use this for spans: <span style="white-space: nowrap;">...</span>. It's
XHTML 1.0 compliant. I would imagine it works for table cells, too.
