0perator Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 is there a way to get a validator to "log in" to my site and then let me ask it to validate different pages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 I'm going to guess and say you want the w3 validators? I use the web developer add-on for firefox that allows for "local css/html validation" https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/60 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maq Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 is there a way to get a validator to "log in" to my site and then let me ask it to validate different pages? Is there a specific reason you want to do this? I'm almost positive you can just give the w3 validator specific pages to check. KingPhilip's suggestion would be a lot more convenient, I'm gonna check it out myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fabrydesign Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 With Opera you can right click on a page and choose Validate, and it uploads the HTML the browser downloaded regardless of location or password protection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heh, that's cool, I didn't know that. Guess cause I don't use Opera Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opera? Who uses Opera still?! (Kidding of course - a good browser, just really never makes it into the headlines like Firefox or IE, or hell, even Chrome when it launched) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel0 Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 You can get something like it with the webdev toolbar in FF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nrg_alpha Posted April 4, 2009 Share Posted April 4, 2009 I use Opera from time to time.. Admittedly, I didn't realize the right-click validate option. However, when I did that on my homepage (localhost), I get a pop-up asking if I want to upload this page from my computer to an online validator? So I click 'Ok' (otherwise I have to click 'Cancel'... the validator (w3c's) claims it's invalid (I get like 6 errors). All the while, it is the same exact code that is live online (which validates fine). Hmmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
