[OpenID] wiki.openid.net openid support broken

[Manger, James H]

http://blog.nerdbank.net/ claims to be XHTML but isn’t valid XML. That could be a problem, though http://allentom.com/ also claims to be XHTML but also isn’t valid. They both have lots of unescaped ‘&’ characters so that doesn’t explain the difference, but other XML errors are only in one or the other so that could cause different behaviour.

The <meta http-equiv=’X-XRDS-Location’ content=’https://xri…’> element in http://blog.nerdbank.net/ (without a corresponding HTTP header) may be a more significant difference. Are RPs supposed to notice such a <meta> element?

Other minor differences: ‘ vs “ to quote OpenID <link> attributes; /> vs > to terminate <link> elements; empty path vs / path on delegate URIs.

A more significant difference is that http://blog.nerdbank.net/ includes OpenID v1 and v2 links, while http://allentom.com/ only has v1 links.



I am curious about what the actual cause turns out to be.

I also delegated my domain to myopenid.com, but I'm able to login to the Wiki using "allentom.com" which has been delegated to "http://atom.myopenid.com/"<http://atom.myopenid.com/>

YMMV

This is what I sent to pbworks via their contact page:



The OpenID login that you have doesn't correctly handle delegation. When I try to log in with http://blog.nerdbank.net/ it sends me to myopenid.com<http://myopenid.com> with an openid.identity value of http://blog.nerdbank.net/ instead of the correct value of http://andrew.arnott.myopenid.com/ This makes it impossible for me to login. Please fix this asap.
