mimetype

hey guys!

i found into the mimetype.php, located in the includes folder, a crazy markup of the DOCTYPE. the same crazy markup was in RN 2.4.x, too. there is an explanation for why this was not only written in php? such a spell, I do not even know of you. Smile

near line 100:

Code:

if (DOCTYPE == "strict") { ?>


<!DOCTYPE html


     PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"


     "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">


<?php } else if (DOCTYPE == "frameset") { ?>


<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN"


   "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-frameset.dtd">


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">


<?php } else if (DOCTYPE == "math") { ?>


<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0//EN"


               "http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/dtd/xhtml-math11-f.dtd">


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">


<?php } else { ?>


<!DOCTYPE html


   PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"


   "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">


<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">


<?php } ?>


<head>


<?php


if(!isset($dhMETA)) $dhMETA = array('title' => array(1 => ''));


if (strlen(trim($dhMETA['title'][1]))>0) {?>


   <title><?php echo $dhMETA['title'][1]; // nukeSEO(tm) Dynamic HEAD ?></title>


<?php } ?>


<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="<?php echo $mime ?>;charset=<?php echo $charset ?>" />

in this way is not much clearer?

Code:

if (DOCTYPE == "strict") {


   echo '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">'."\n";


   echo '<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">'."\n";


} else if (DOCTYPE == "frameset") {


   echo '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Frameset//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-frameset.dtd">'."\n";


   echo '<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">'."\n";


} else if (DOCTYPE == "math") {


   echo '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/dtd/xhtml-math11-f.dtd">'."\n";


   echo '<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">'."\n";


} else {


   echo '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">'."\n";


   echo '<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en" lang="en">'."\n";


}


   echo '<head>';





if(!isset($dhMETA)) $dhMETA = array('title' => array(1 => ''));


if (strlen(trim($dhMETA['title'][1]))>0) {


   echo '<title>'.$dhMETA['title'][1].'</title>'."\n"; // nukeSEO(tm) Dynamic HEAD


}


   echo '<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="'.$mime.';charset='.$charset.'" />'."\n";


?>

I agree that reads much better and the current file is somewhat a mess, imo. No promises as some of our priorities are still being ironed out, but It's likely that file will be removed and/or replaced by a better method in the next major release.

Was looking for info on mimetype and found this old post. Just wanted to add for anyone interested that you can have a theme-specific mimetype file in themes/YourTheme/mimetype.php

This will completely replace the mimetype file that came with RN.

Which is the only statement, which I found:
[ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

But yeah, there is a way to add it.
