Subject:[courier-users] Webadmin login screen contains invalid HTML markupActions...

Hello,

I installed courier 0.37.3 this weekend, and noticed that webadmin's login page displays empty in Mozilla 0.9.9+.

This is caused by invalid markup in the login page. Running http://validator.w3.org on it will give the following result:

Below are the results of attempting to parse this document with an SGML parser.

* Line 12 <http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hosttirol.com%2Fcgi-bin%2Fwebadmin&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline#line-12>, column 6:

| [#---#]| ^

Error: invalid comment declaration; check your comment syntax

* Line 9 <http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hosttirol.com%2Fcgi-bin%2Fwebadmin&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline#line-9>, column 2:

| <!--| ^

Error: comment declaration started here

* Line 14 <http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hosttirol.com%2Fcgi-bin%2Fwebadmin&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline#line-14>, column 6:

|</head>| ^

Error: end tag for element "HEAD" which is not open; try removing the end tag or check for improper nesting of elements

* Line 17 <http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.hosttirol.com%2Fcgi-bin%2Fwebadmin&charset=%28detect+automatically%29&doctype=Inline#line-17>, column 15:

|alink="#FF0000">| ^

Removing the [#---#] line from the comment will make the page (a) validate, save for an error about charset declaration missing, and (b) display correctly in mozilla.

Could this please be fixed, as it forces me to use Netscape 4.x to administer my e-mail server!? It would be nice if Courier emitted valid HTML everywhere
