I am trying to use the VALIDATE BY URI option to validate an HTML documents on my hard drive, but it gives me an error message as explained below. I am using Win98 with IE5.01 and in case it matters: Earthlink which has an apache server, but that's probably not relevant here as the document is on my hard drive. the error I get from w3c validator page is this: unexpected response when trying to retrieve file:///D:/MyWebDev/earthlink/lilla/webdocs/html/Start.html: 404 File `///D:/MyWebDev/earthlink/lilla/webdocs/html/Start.html' does not exist Please make sure you have entered the URI correctly. I tried enter other variations like the one below, but just get error messages: http://file:///d:\MyWebDev\earthlink\lilla\webdocs\html\Start.html Can I do this, if so, can you give me a hand with the syntax please? Thank you, Lilla lilla@earthlink.net
