    Local server HTML validator

    As you might have noticed I'm trying to clean up my web site's
    HTML code. The way I do it is simply more or less redoing to
    complete site, testing it on a web server I have set up on my
    local network.

    I have downloaded, and installed CSE HTML Validator Pro,
    but I don't get the same results with that as I do with the online
    validator on W3.org. And I can't upload files to W3.org either,
    due to all the ASP code I use.

    So, the question is, where can I find a validator that validates
    like the one on W3.org? (Windows 2000 server).

    CSE is not a validator, despite it's name, it's a linter.

        At w3.org?

        W3C's easy-to-use markup validation service, based on SGML and XML parsers.

            A linter? What's that?

            Thanks. Testing it now, looks good so far. Except that I'm getting
            more work. ;-)

                I already looked at that page, and half way down it my head started
                spinning. This Friday I think I'll skip the beer, and just read this a
                couple of times. ;-)

                If it doesn't have a "download the ready to install here" button, I'm stuck. :-/

                        I know what you mean. The first time I installed w3c locally on my
                        server, I was pulling out hair. I didn't wanna go through the hassle
                        of installing on other intranet servers, so I just wrote my own PHP
                        based validator. Plus, in addition to XHTML/HTML I also wanted to
                        validate DocBook XML, so writing my own validator made more sense. And
                        it works fine, and much easier to install on new servers. :).
