Hello Lift community,
I tried to use html5 for my project but lift complains and do not
renders
the template.
All my responses should be html5, so I used the code from the Assembla
wiki:
LiftRules.docType.default.set((r: Req) => r match {
case _ if S.skipDocType => Empty
case _ if S.getDocType._1 => S.getDocType._2
case _ => Full(DocType.html5)
})
Now when I define the html5 doctype in my template I get an error,
that whitespace is expected.
I know Lift wants to use xml, but I read here on the list that html5
is fine too.
How must the templates look like?
with best regards

All of Lift's templates must be valid XML. HTML 5 supports well formed XML as well as the random HTML tags... if you're going to use HTML 5 with Lift, you still need to be sure your templates are well formed xml.

Hello David,
this was fast! Thank you. I did not know that.
When my template starts with a normal <html> tag it will not work.
Because of html5 I removed all the namespace declarations.
I added the lift namespace declaration but it still did not worked.
Firefox showed me the page as xml. After adding the standard namespace
again
(xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml") it worked.
I see in my firebug, the response has the right doctype html
definition as I configured Lift, ok.
But above this is the <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
declaration, is this expected?
Cannot tell if this is the problem why Firefox needed the default
namespace...
with best regards
