Description xwisdom 2009-10-21 01:31:59 UTC 
Hello,

I've noticed that NetBeans does not support HTML 5 tags nor does it validate the page based on the doctype. A page with
<DOCTYPE html> will display a "Unknown Tag" indicator when I enter the <canvas> tag.
Comment 1 xwisdom 2009-10-21 01:32:21 UTC 
Testing in 6.7
Comment 2 Marek Fukala 2009-11-13 09:50:30 UTC 
XHTML 5 support - it's already filed enhancement #169779

doctype based validation - it does, but there is a bug #170580 -  [68cat] Support for short HTML doctype which is exactly your case.

Thanks for the feedback
