updateInfoURL problems

Hi,

I'm having trouble getting the FF3b2 updateInfoURL to work...

In the install.rdf, I have this:

<em:updateInfoURL>https://<oursite>/info.php?extversion=%ITEM_VERSION%&amp;locale=%APP_LOCALE%</em:updateInfoURL>

(I don't have any of the hash or key information, but this seems it should be ok since it is over valid HTTPS--and the updateURL is working ok.)

Next, as per the docs, I only have limited XHTML elements and am serving the file above as application/xhtml+xml .

Here's what I'm outputting:

Code: Select all

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head><title>Update Information for the Extension</title></head>
<body>
<h1>Update Information for the Extension, version 0.4.4</h1>
<h2>Changes since version 0.4.3:</h2>
<ul>
   <li>Made install.rdf to work with dynamic update.php and info.php pages</li>
   <li>Added About dialog</li>
</ul>
<h2>Changes since version 0.4.2:</h2>
<ul>
   <li>Allowed to work with FF3b2</li>
   <li>Added favicon retrieval within website pull-down</li>
</ul>
</body></html>

(I removed some @id and @xml:lang attributes as well as an XML declaration just in case (not sure if I can have those?)

The docs don't mention the <html>, <head>, <body>, and <title> tags, but for valid XHTML, these are required (and I tried it without them to no avail too)...

What is wrong here?

thanks,
Brett

Hi,

Thanks for the response!

What happened was that there had been a bug in the wiki docs which stated that the updateInfoURL was in the install.rdf file, as opposed to the update manifest...

Working for me now, thanks...
