New Release of Services_W3C_HTMLValidator

July 31st, 2007

I recently released a new version of the PEAR Services_W3C_HTMLValidator package which supports the latest features of the HTML Validator.

With release 0.8.0 the W3C Validator has a shiny new interface and speed improvements to boot. In addition, the web services and SOAP output supports additional features which make the web service just as good as the web interface at http://validator.w3.org/.

The additions to the SOAP output format give developers the ability to re-create the validator’s interface in any template they choose, or just programmatically validate HTML documents.
As a quick example, I’ve built a simple validation interface within the UNL web templates.

Big thanks to Olivier for all his work, and getting my patches in to production.
