Joomla! JXHTML Demo & Source Code
"JXHTML" is the codename for the Joomla! Semantic Web Integration GSoC project. You can browse the sources online or run an anonymous subversion checkout like so (from the command line naturally, the way I do things, you're on your own if you prefer GUI tools):
svn co http://joomlacode.org/svn/soc2007/JXHTML/trunkThere's actually a branch called "2007-08-20" but this is just a snapshot really of the work at the 20th (the pencils-down cut-off date for the Summer of Code); the latest code you can always find in the trunk so that's probably where you'll want to look.
There is also an online demo of the system available. This demo is running on a reasonably new version of the trunk and unfortunately some of my templates were customised based on older versions. Therefore you'll find quite a few features that does not work, but don't let this deter you; there are bugs I am busy fixing but the idea behind this demo is for you to look at the generated markup since the design is definitely not worth it. Remember, I am a coder, not a designer after all. ;)
The changes I was working on include the following:
- No more tables used for layout purposes.
- Valid XHTML 1.0 Strict (instead of Transitional).
- Better markup semantics and accessibility.
- hAtom integration in the content component.
- hCard integration in the contact component.
Please note that some of the pages might not validate. This will probably be because of some markup inserted from the database. My templates all validate perfectly unless I stuffed up somewhere. :)
This is only really the beginning of this project. There is lots of work that is still in the pipeline so I am indeed going to be one very busy coder the next couple of months making further improvements and hopefully seeing most of my work into the Joomla! trunk.
