On the W3C validation for BaylissGallery.com ( W3C Validation Link ), we are getting an iframe error on the HikaShop Content Module for the Featured Product.

Could you implement HTML5 compliant changes in your next update?

Here is the error message:

Error Line 715, Column 190: Bad value {handler: 'iframe',size: {x: 480, y: 140}} for attribute rel on element a: The string {handler: is not a registered keyword.

Jerome,

I installed Mootools Enabler / Disabler and enabled all disabling of Mootools but that didn't work. Any other suggestions?

Jermone,

One of the Joomla admins stated this:

The possible "a rel" values are listed here: www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_rel.asp

Hikashop is using this value: "{handler: 'iframe',size: {x: 480, y: 140}}"

This has nothing to do with MooTools, it's a problem with Hikashop. They just shouldn't assign this value to "rel".

A workaround would be to modify Hikashop's core to address this problem.

OK, I understand what you are saying now.

So I have edited the configuration for the display to use a different popup mode.

Nicholas,

I looked at all of the configuration options but could not find the "when a product is added to the cart" or I might be blind. Which configuration tab is it under?

Also, I know that websites work just find that do not validate correctly as I've used validation for well over a decade. However, I do have some clients that 'require' that their sites validate. I don't want to close a client because of this issue.

Nicholas,

Well no wonder I couldn't see it. It's not there and I do have the current Hikashop version 2.4.0. Any ideas?

OK, I found it. It was actually in the 'Cart' section of the 'Main' tab. It was not set to "Stay and display a popup notice" anyway. It was set to "Always go to the checkout". I changed it to "Always stay on the same page" but that didn't fix the problem.

Any other ideas?

Nicholas,

That fixed it! Thanks.

However, you indicated that the code was original changed to fix something else. Would changing this code re-create a problem that the original code fixed? I would much rather have a 'validation' problem than to break the shopping cart from functioning properly.

Hello hikashop guys, why you not use any other lightbox system for it? it will be a good decision if you use any others lightbox plugin.

use magnefic popup or something like it: dimsemenov.com/plugins/magnific-popup/
