The test page on w3c-test.org points everyone back to http://w3c-test.org/ and that's the page which is linked from the spec, so it limits individuals going to the alternative servers. An additional solution could be to check the location of the document using script and report a failure if it's not the right server. We could have a dedicated assertion in testharness.js just for that case, something like assert_testserver(); That would test if the file is ran from http://w3c-test.org/. Third parties wishing to deploy the tests outside the W3C server would only have one place to modify like that. I even wonder if we can abstract which alternate server it's redirecting to... Philippe
