I have these lines of code in several forms, after validating (XHTML 1.1 Stricty) I get this error :

Quote:syntax of attribute value does not conform to declared value

The CI Code :

Code:
$inputpreferences   = array( 'name'        => 'commentflag',

                             'id'          => 'commentflag', 

                             'value'       => 'N', 

                             'checked'     => false,                                                    

                             'disabled'    => ''

                            );

echo form_checkbox($inputpreferences).'some text';

This is the actual HTML result :

Code:
&lt;input type="checkbox" name="commentflag" value="N" id="commentflag" disabled=""  /&gt;

What the actual result should be :

Code:
&lt;input type="checkbox" name="commentflag" value="N" id="commentflag" disabled  /&gt;

Is there a correct way in CI 1.6.3 to solve this problem?

What you want to do is 'disabled'=>'disabled'. XHTML doesn't allow for attribute minimization, so you're required to duplicate the name in the value field:

Code:
&lt;input type="checkbox" name="commetflag" value="N" id="commentflag" disabled="disabled" /&gt;
