Not HTML5 compliant?

[richard....@gmail.com]

I really do not understand why the framework designers chose to make the markup completely non compliant with HTML 5.  If you want to use custom attributes, XHTML provides a standard way of doing so.   Is it really that difficult to declare a couple extra namespaces in the markup to include the XHTML namespace and a namespace for AngularJS with a prefix of ng?

I am disappointed.

You can use naming based on 'data-' prefix like <button data-ng-click="save()">save</button> which is quite nice I think ..

Don't be disappointed, you have several choices to use attributes or
elements, you can even use namespaces if you want to. Check out the
variants here:
https://github.com/angular/angular.js/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#1.0.0rc1

Removing the requirement for the namespace simplifies things but as Andras pointed out you can still use them. I'm somewhat of a purist myself but decided to go with the flow and now I just worry if I'm closing tags properly and let the validators and IDEs crimp. Angular is just too awesome to let these things bother IMHO.

Hi Richard,

this topic was discussed already last year:

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/angular/rusco/angular/K122XWmvlI8/iWMVZfCPjlgJ 

This is my definition of AngularJs = The spirit of XHTML2 + The spirit of Flex/XForms pragmatically disguised in HTML 5 clothes :-)

Hi Richard

We are HTML5 compliant. Read this: http://docs-next.angularjs.org/api/angular.module.ng.$compileProvider.directive

In short if you don't like this: <button ng-click="..."> then just do this <button x-ng-click="..."> or this <button data-ng-click="..."> or even this <button ng:click="...">.

they all have their advantages and disadvantages. Chose what best fits your needs.

It's great that Angular shifted from formal namespace to dashed-attributes (as a default). It means that Selenium can effectively functionally test app-stacks using it - http://paulhammant.com/2012/04/09/testing-knockout-and-angular-with-selenium2 whereas is it could not easily do so before because of the colons - http://paulhammant.com/2012/03/15/angular-and-selenium-again

Excellent.   My interest is renewed.  The front page of the site doesn't make this apparent hence my initial post.

So many choices these days... ember, knockout, angular  all interesting but of most importance is selecting one that will remain active for some time to come.
