Description schkovich 2010-03-11 09:49:33 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 201003110200 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.* ]

Dojo Toolkit provides a way to declare instances of any class via markup in 
page. Those attributes are marked as html errors: Unknown attribute dojoType of
tag <div>. Although this is true, when using Dojo declarations extensively,
real problems are masked in number of warnings about Dojo declarations. 

It would be awesome if Dojo declarations could be validated in HTML and PHP
editor.

I'm not a DOJO expert, but shouldn't be the DOJO's attributes marked with some namespace?

Something like

<html xmlns:dj="http://dojo.com/dojo">
<div dj:dojoType> ... </div>

I'm not saying I cannot fix that somehow if there is no other way though...
Comment 3 schkovich 2010-03-12 10:54:26 UTC 
I've spoked with Dojo guys on IRC. They are quite categoric about xml: not all html documents support xml namespaces, so dojo doesn't use them.

However we discussed option to generate the list of attributes. Will such list be helpful?
Comment 4 Marek Fukala 2010-03-12 12:16:20 UTC 
Definitively, once I have it, I'll create some kind of "default html namespace" extension infrastructure and possibly user configurable UI and create an implemenetation for the DOJO. 

Please also ask the DOJO guy if there some non standart tags recognized by the DOJO engine.

Thanks in advance.
Comment 5 schkovich 2010-03-12 16:36:09 UTC 
Great. In which format you would like the list to be given? json, xml, csv? 

Any ideas about a way to update such list?

I depends on the data complexity and also how you mean that. Whether you think updating of the list in some form in the netbeans source when it changes on the DOJO side or you ment modifying the list by users. I was thinking about some relatively simple UI in html editor options. If it is just a list of tags and for each tag a list of attributes it shouldn't be that hard.

> Great. In which format you would like the list to be given? json, xml, csv? 
Again - depends on data complexity. I'm find with any of these.

At the moment I see no way how to resolve this problem.
