Hi,

I am working to get my site w3c valid, I am using 2.0.18 but I find a error in the news module 1.56.
This error I receve
Warning  Line 165Column 96cannot generate system identifier for general entity "PHPSESSID" .

…s/index.php?storytopic=1&start=5&PHPSESSID=1c187618bb63a73974ebad4776eeec


I think the fault is the '&' , I already looked in the themplates but I can't find what I have to change to get it right.

Has anybody a idea ?

greets,
siko

I noticed I have the same error's with other modules ,like xfguestbook 2.50, extgallery 1.01, wfdownloads 3.1 .
I have not enough knowledge to say the problem lies when these modules generate(?) or use(?) "PHPSESSID".

It is indeed the &, that causes these kind of problems in the validation. It should be encoded as & amp; (without the space) by passing it trough the appropriate php function (htmlspecialchars) and settings . To get it right, changements may be needed in the core and/or the module.

Modules do not generate PHPSESSID and I don´t know how it is getting there.

There are newer versions of both of these modules; perhaps the coding had been altered with them?

Does it mean I have to look in the core of the news module ? Because in the templates I found nothing.

How can I see the assignment that it generate "PHPSESSID" in the code.

@ trabis

so that means it lies in the core of XOOPS ?
