[R-pkg-devel] CRAN HTML Warning

[Tarmo K Remmel]

Hello,

I have recently updated my ShapePattern package to deal with the looming retirement of rgeos and rgdal packages. That all works well. However, the  checks for CRAN throw a series of warnings when the HTML validation is performed (one example set of warnings below). A set of identical warnings are produced for each .Rd file in my package). These seem to be generated for the automatically produced HTML files during the build/check processing.

R CMD check --as-cran ShapePattern_3.0.0.tar.gz
(All checks are OK until)...
Found the following HTML validation problems:
CARsimu.html:4:1 (CARsimu.Rd:3): Warning: <link> inserting "type" attribute
CARsimu.html:12:1 (CARsimu.Rd:3): Warning: <script> proprietary attribute "onload"
CARsimu.html:12:1 (CARsimu.Rd:3): Warning: <script> inserting "type" attribute
CARsimu.html:17:1 (CARsimu.Rd:3): Warning: <table> lacks "summary" attribute
CARsimu.html:38:1 (CARsimu.Rd:14): Warning: <table> lacks "summary" attribute

Is there something that I can do to remedy these warnings? Can they be ignored during a submission to CRAN?

Insights welcome as I am at a loss here. I’m not finding any discussion about this online.

Thank you,

Tarmo
