Error m

Answer 1

I had a similar issue. I resolved it by explicitly setting the MIME type of the page to be "text/html". Otherwise it was being parsed in the UIWebview as xhtml.

eg in ASP.NET in your masterpage set

<% Response.ContentType = "text/html"; %>

Also check your <!DOCTYPE> isn't claiming to be xhtml.
