FTMC Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 HelloDoes anyone of you know if there is an offline version of the xhtml validator? For our exams at school we have to write it in strict and we can't use the validator coz it's online... an offline validator would solve the problem... Anyone?Grtz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holmedwa04 Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Erm wouldn't setting the page to offline work, like make available offline? Anyway, isn't it violating the rules of the exam? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boen_robot Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 If you have Dreamwaver 8, or another good WYSIWYG editor, you could use it's own validator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aspnetguy Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 I doubt there is an offline version and just saving the validator page won't work because it would still have to access the processing scripts on the w3 server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
croatiankid Posted October 24, 2006 Share Posted October 24, 2006 Hi, I searched the internet here.the first one is paid, but it has a free version. the third one looks promising though (i think it's free completely). Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shiftJIS Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Um... The w3 validator source is free to download. http://validator.w3.org/source/ It's basically a perl script, and you can obviously run it locally.Also, there is a totally free plugin for Firefox at https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/249/ that is based on the above mentioned code. Most validator plugins send it to the w3 over the tubes, but this does it all locally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that our school's system admisatrator wouldn't let us check it on the internet and that he would give us another opportinity to check if he knew there was one available...
