<h1>Pedantic</h1>
<h2>Configuration</h2>
<p>
The 'Pedantic' filter is enabled by specifying:
<dl>
<dt>Apache:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>ModPagespeedEnableFilters pedantic</pre>
<dt>Nginx:<dd><pre class="prettyprint"
>pagespeed EnableFilters pedantic;</pre>
</dl>
<p>
in the configuration file.
<h2>Description</h2>
<p>
The 'Pedantic' filter is used to make PageSpeed more HTML4 compliant. Some
filters remove type attributes in style and script tags, which are
required for HTML4 validation checks but not HTML5. This filter adds default
types to script and style tags. Note that it will increase HTML size and thus
possibly increase latency so use it only if you require HTML4 validation.
</p>
<h2>Operation</h2>
<p>
There are two cases where a <code>type</code> attribute can be added. First, if
a <code>&lt;style&gt;</code> tag does not have a <code>type</code> attribute
then a <code>type="text/css"</code> attribute will be added to
the <code>style</code> tag. Second, if a <code>&lt;script&gt;</code> tag does
not have a <code>type</code> attribute then
a <code>type="text/javascript"</code> attribute will be added to
the <code>script</code> tag.
</p>
<p>
The expected method of using the pedantic filter is via a query parameter
such as: '<code>?ModPagespeedFilters=+pedantic</code>'.
</p>
<p>
You can see the filter in action at <code>www.modpagespeed.com</code> on
this <a
href="https://www.modpagespeed.com/examples/pedantic.html?ModPagespeed=on&amp;ModPagespeedFilters=pedantic"
>example</a>.
</p>
<h2>Requirements</h2>
<p>
The 'Pedantic' filter will not alter a page with an HTML5 DOCTYPE.
</p>
<h2>Risks</h2>
<p>
This filter is considered medium risk. It is safe for most pages, but could
possibly break scripts by adding <code>text/javascript</code> to a tag if the
default mime type is something other than <code>text/javascript</code>.
