CRAN requires HTML5 for documentation #240

Closed florianhartig closed 2 years ago

From CRAN

Dear maintainer,

Please see the problems shown on https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_BayesianTools.html.

In particular, please see the "Found the following HTML validation problems" NOTEs in the "HTML version of manual" check for at least some of the r-devel checks results.

R 4.2.0 switched to use HTML5 for documentation pages. Now validation using HTML Tidy finds problems in the HTML generated from your Rd files.

To fix, in most cases it suffices to re-generate the Rd files using the current CRAN version of roxygen2. To check whether this already fixes things, or whether additional changes you made fixed the problems (e.g., if the problem is from yourself directly generating HTML output), you can grab HTML Tidy version 5.8.0 binaries from https://binaries.html-tidy.org/ and, with FOO.Rd an Rd file for which problems were found, run

R CMD Rdconv -t html /path/to/FOO.Rd -o FOO.html tidy -qe --drop-empty-elements no FOO.html

(Alternatively, you can use R CMD check --as-cran using a current version of R-devel.)

Note that

was removed from HTML5: you can use style attributes (e.g., style="text-align: center;") instead.

Can you please fix as necessary?

Please correct before 2022-09-14 to safely retain your package on CRAN.

Best, -k
