> <a href="/">HTML Validation Service</a> Results</h1> > <a href="$abs_svc_uri">HTML Validation Service</a> Results</h1> I'm aware of this issue (it bit me a couple of times), but I haven't done anything to fix it because I've been planning to do this in the course of some larger changes to make the validator more customizable. I suspect the reason Gerald hasn't done it is the same. >2) Line 68 refers to the $faqloc: > >my $faqloc = 'http://www.cs.duke.edu/~dsb/kgv-faq/'; > >It appears that this file no longer exists at this location? Perhaps >including an error file in the 'htdocs' directory would be >more appropriate at this point? Yes. Since Scott isn't in a position to maintain it any more, I've got the full KGV FAQ sitting on my machine waiting for me to do anything about it. I'm going to do some minor fixes to the HTML and make it fit in better with the rest of the Validator pages and then send them along to Gerald. The next step is to optionally inline the error explanations. However, I'm not really that good at the SGML-side of things so for any substansive changes and updates to the FAQ, someone on this list will have to go through it and weed out the old stuff and any errors. >FYI, I'm running the Validator on Win2000 Server, ActiveState >Perl build 522, Apache 1.3.9, and I currently run the script >with only 4 needed changes Ah Great! You've just volunteered to write an installation guide for the Validator on W32 systems! :-) > -- the 'shebang' now reads "#!d:/perl/bin/perl.exe, >and I've changed $abs_svc_uri, $faqloc, and $element_ref >(although only $abs_svc_uri is absolutely necessary). The three variables should become configuration options in the not so distant future. The shebang-line is a bit worse. We may have to start mucking with installation scripts if nobody has any good solutions to this problem. ASP? BTW, did you try renaming "check" to "check.pl"?
