IE: two buttons don't render correctly in test_Parser

[anonymous]

tests/widget/test_Parser.html

Everything looks okay except for element 3/3a, which has the text and button rendering separately, and 3/3b which shows only the text. These two buttons are ok on FF and Opera

Heh, that's a funny one. I looked in the dom explorer, and IE is actually creating a node called </dojoButton> (rather than <dojoButton>), so it seems to be getting confused by non-standard html tags w/out a namespace. Don't know how to fix it, or even if it's useful to fix. (I don't see the point of supporting that feature, except perhaps backwards compatibility. But since it's not working, I figure no one is using it anyway.)

Morris fixed the first one (3/3a) -- the parser can now handle XHTML-like markup with namespaces as long as the namespaces declared with xmlns, as it is in this test. See WidgetNamespaces? in the Wiki for details. The second one (3/3b) is a deprecated use of tags and will go away after 0.4. Basically, the developer should be explicitly using a namespace for custom widgets anyway. I don't know if it's possible to fix and I'd propose we not bother fixing it anyway.
