I'd like to install a local copy of Validator to be used for checking web pages we must not make visible to the outside world. I'm quite experienced at installing things with the minimum instructions - but I prefer there to be more than the minimum! I've downloaded the source of Validator, and read the README.cvs file that comes with it: <p> This is the code for the <a href="http://validator.w3.org/">W3C HTML validation service</a>. For information on installing it, please see the <a href="http://validator.w3.org/source/">source code page</a>. </p> Unfortunately, the web page referred to does not contain any installation instructions. I then looked at the documents in the htdocs/docs directory of the distribution, and the file devel.html there does contain some useful information about which Perl modules are prerequisites for Validator. One problem I always have, though, is relating the name of a Perl module to the distribution .tar.gz file on CPAN which contains it. (Sometimes it's obvious, other times a good guess is required.) So, has anyone got any installation instructions for Validator? If no one has, I'll do the necessary trial-and-error of installation and try to write some myself. -- John A.
