Need a fix... The attribute 'width' may not appear in tag 'col' for AMP HTML

Getting errors from Google Webmaster Tools on 86 pages that have tables of results (data). Need an easy way to maintain AMP compliance while still displaying the results on a webpage. One example page is http://www.dodgecountyfairgrounds.com/2014/08/19/junior-fair-poultry-judging-results-2/amp/

Any help is appreciated!

Solution

  • I think this error states the problem itself. The attribute 'width' is not to be used inside the tag 'col'. This is one of the so called disallowed attributes from the AMP docs:

    Disallowed attribute

    Code: DISALLOWED_ATTR

    Format: "The attribute '%1' may not appear in tag '%2'."

    Fix: Remove the attribute from the HTML tag.

    Attributes are whitelisted, so there is no definitive list of all disallowed attributes. To check the supported attributes for each specific tag, search for HTML tag, and then attrs in the AMP validator spec.

    In addition to a whitelist of specific attributes for each tag, all AMP tags can use any of the attributes white-listed under $GLOBAL_ATTRS; all attributes with a prefix of "data-" are also whitelisted.
