[Plugin: AddToAny: Share/Bookmark/Email Button] html5 validation errors from AddToAny

  • Getting the following errors when validating a site under HTML5 rules that are coming from HTML generated by the AddToAny plugin:

    The frameborder attribute on the iframe element is obsolete. Use CSS instead.

The scrolling attribute on the iframe element is obsolete. Use CSS instead.

    and

    Bad value https://platform.twitter.com/widgets/tweet_button.html?url=http%3A%2F%2Fkelekona.local%2F~ken%2Fwordpress%2Farchives%2F157&counturl=http%3A%2F%2Fkelekona.local%2F~ken%2Fwordpress%2Farchives%2F157&count=horizontal&text=Amazon%20Affiliate%20link%20test%20Post: for attribute src on element iframe: DOUBLE_WHITESPACE in QUERY.

    Looking at the source related to this error, for the ‘text’ parameter there is a trailing space that should be escaped with %20

    The frameborder attribute will be removed (except for IE) in the next release.

    Unfortunately the scrolling attribute is still needed for cross-browser compatibility, otherwise scrollbars will appear in some browsers. Please see the FAQ notes in the next release regarding W3C validation.

    Unfortunately WordPress doesn’t offer a back-end function for setting & getting the current theme’s doctype, otherwise this would be a simply resolvable issue. At least it’s a very minor issue. Search engine crawlers, etc. won’t have any issues crawling your site due to a slightly obsolete attribute.
