[ANN] W3CHTMLValidator v0.1.0

ruby-talk
1

This is a mini-module that does not merit a RubyForge project but might come in handy.
It's a module to facilitate HTML markup validation using the W3C Markup validation Service.
I use it to automate validation for my websites, i.e. in a rake task I do something like the following

require 'validator'
#targets is an array of URIs to the pages we want to validate
results=Hash.new
targets.each{|t|
  res=W3CHTMLValidator.validate_page(page)
  #any page with problems goes into the hash
  results[page]=res.messages unless res.ok?
}
#do something with the results

Check it out at http://www.braveworld.net/riva/work/validator/index.html
Have fun,
V.-

Whoa! Lots of typos there. The code should look like this:

require 'validator'
#targets is an array of URIs to the pages we want to validate
results=Hash.new
targets.each{|t|
     res=W3CHTMLValidator.validate_page(t)
     #any page with problems goes into the hash
     results[t]=res.messages unless res.ok?
}
#do something with the results

Look what happens when you post while refactoring.
Cheers,
V.-
