[snip] The NISCAIR opac is actually a rather poor example. It falls short of W3C standard compliance - see https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fopac.niscair.res.in%2F
Right now, the validator is returning a 500 error for that OPAC, and a direct attempt is timing out (504 from a CentOS server) so I can't see the results.
(Remark: Ignore the the first 2 info and the first error message in the above output, every Koha instance will have these. The rest should be fixed by the implementer)
What are these "2 info and the first error message"? Our Koha instance does not have any errors, warnings, info (due perhaps to the evolution of !doctype from XHTML to HTML[5]): <https://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fopac.navalmarinearchive.com> On the other hand, we have a "wish list" project to try and look into the CSS -- the jigsaw.w3.org validation is intimidating :=} Best -- Paul

Perhaps because we're all piling on that OPAC to look for errors. I think the point of the conversation isn't to criticize that particular OPAC (they didn't volunteer) but to recommend that as people approach the job of customizing their OPAC they keep validation in mind as a testing tool.

If you're genuinely asking a question, rather than snarking about upgrades: The HTML5 specification no longer considers "unapi-server" an acceptable value for the attribute "rel" on <link> elements. This has no effect on the functionality of the OPAC. -- Owen -- Web Developer Athens County Public Libraries http://www.myacpl.org
