valid xhtml and control names

Hi,

I am really struggling with using form control names such as "gs[]". This
will not valid but is tremendously useful in terms of the way that it is
handled by php on the server.

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Mike

What makes you think it is not valid? I just tried submitting an example to
the W3 validator and it accepted it as valid XHTML 1.0 Strict.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head>
<title>Test</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="get" action="test.ht ml">
<fieldset>
<input type="text" name="gs[]" value="1" />
<input type="text" name="gs[]" value="2" />
<input type="text" name="gs[]" value="3" />
<input type="submit" />
</fieldset>
</form>
</body>
</html>

First, I was reading an outdated post. Second, I tried that last night and
it would not validate. I must have misinterpreted the errors.
Thanks. Mike

Morning all, I'm having a wee problem with a project I'm working on at the moment. I'm leading my company into producing a website, based upon Web Standards, which will be created using XHTML and CSS, and powered by ASP.NET. My first problem, which I'm near to solving, was that ASP.NET doesn't produce valid XHTML output. We don't want to spend money on third-party components, and we can't wait for ASP.NET 2.0, so we needed to find a

Hi, I am having difficulty getting the ASP.NET framework to generate valid XHTML. My immediate problem surrounds user input in, for example, textbox controls. I consider characters such as less-than and ampersand perfectly valid in user input. So I've disabled request validation by adding the following to my web.config file.
