Meta Tags on the wrong place?!

Hi
I've got a Problem concerning Html Validation and the position of the metatags.
The code phpwcms generates ist the following one:
Code: Select all
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<!--
phpwcms | free open source content management system
created by Oliver Georgi (oliver at phpwcms dot de) and licensed under GNU/GPL.

//-->
<html>
<head>
<title>Tanelorn - Offizielle Seite | Willkommen bei Tanelorn</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<script src="phpwcms_template/inc_js/frontend.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="phpwcms_template/inc_css/frontend.css" />
<meta name="description" content="Heavy Metal, Band, Live, Power Metal, Home">
</head>
Unfortunately, the position of meta name="description" is not html valid. How can I change the position or what am I making wrong?

It is caused by the "self-closing" XHTML tag for "link" in the "head" section of the HTML document which causes the parser to infer the end of the "head" section and the beginning of the "body" section (where "link" and "meta" are not allowed; hence the reported error):
Code: Select all
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="phpwcms_template/inc_css/frontend.css" />

I am guessing that you could:
1. Edit the "self-closing" tag for "<link rel=... />" (in your version of phpWCMS) to the HTML 4.01 convention
-OR-
2. Rearrange the coding, to place "<meta name=... >" above the "self-closing" tag.
( #2 would seem the "preferred" way! )

Could you post how you re-arrange your meta data codes?
I couldn't find the correct place to do that.
Thank you
P.S. version: 1.2.6

Backend -> Admin -> templates -> "select your template" -> html head: <head>

I don't think that will re-arrange the code.
Here are the codes in content.func.inc.php
Code: Select all
// add possible redirection code (article summary) to $block["htmlhead"];
$block["htmlhead"] = render_PHPcode($block["htmlhead"]);
$block["htmlhead"] = $content["redirect"]["code"].$block["htmlhead"]."\n"."\n<!-- position A-->\n";
//$block["htmlhead"] .= '<meta name="generator" content="phpwcms v'.$phpwcms['version']."\">\n";
// insert description meta tag if not definied
if(!stristr($block["htmlhead"], '"description"') && $content["struct"][$aktion[0]]["acat_info"]) {
$block["htmlhead"] .= '<meta name="description" content="';
$block["htmlhead"] .= html_specialchars($content["struct"][$aktion[0]]["acat_info"])."\">\n";
}
// insert keywords meta tag if not definied
//if(!stristr($block["htmlhead"], '"keywords"') && !empty($content["articles"][$aktion[1]]["article_keyword"])) {
if(!stristr($block["htmlhead"], '"keywords"') && !empty($content['all_keywords'])) {
$content['all_keywords'] = explode (",", $content['all_keywords']);
$content['all_keywords'] = array_map('trim', $content['all_keywords']);
$content['all_keywords'] = array_diff($content['all_keywords'], array(''));
$content['all_keywords'] = array_unique($content['all_keywords']);
$block["htmlhead"] .= '<meta name="keywords" content="';
$block["htmlhead"] .= html_specialchars(implode(', ', $content['all_keywords']))."\">\n";
}
// new $block['custom_htmlhead'] var (array) for usage in own rendering stuff.
// you will be able to use $GLOBALS['block']['custom_htmlhead']['myheadname']
// always check if you want to use same head code only once
if(count($block['custom_htmlhead'])) {
$block["htmlhead"] .= implode("\n", $block['custom_htmlhead'])."\n";
}
As you can see the custom_htmlhead is after the meta keywords.
However, the result is the meta keyword is displayed after the custom_htmlhead text ( the place you reply above).
I've tried to re-arrange the codes, but it couldn't do anything.
Any idea?
Thank you
