RE: AW: [cgmo-webcgm] getObjectExtent tests

[Lofton Henderson <lofton@rockynet.com>]

Hi Stuart,

I don't know what is happening.  Using "Validate by file upload," I got the 
same result as Ulrich -- many errors.  See his attached screen shot and his 
message below (where he said that all errors disappeared with removal of 
the XML declaration.  See also his comment about the 'meta' element.)

So I tried the Validator tab "Validate by Direct Input".   In a plain text 
editor, I did SelectAll on getObjectExtent.htm (attached), and pasted the 
resulting 111 lines into the Validator's direct-input window.  I got the 
same results as you -- passed!  Actually, one warning that said "Using 
Direct Input mode: UTF-8 character encoding assumed".

Very strange ... the same file fails on my system (and Ulrich's) by upload 
option, and passes (but check 'meta'!) with direct-input option.

Perhaps Thierry or someone else knows what is happening.

-Lofton.
