after converting some HTML files into XHTML - i tested the pages in Bobby and they failed. yesterday i emailed cast.org and asked about this... here is their response: "Thank you for your comments. We hope to accommodate XHTML better in a future version. Part of the problem is finding a suitable parser. " Bobby Technical Support, CAST, Inc. Email bobbyww@cast.org http://www.cast.org/bobby/ How can CAST claim that their validation tool is W3C compliant and not support the new mark-up standards? Can developers be asked to be W3C compliant when the testing tools are insufficient? Does anybody know of a validation tool that parses XHTML? Solid validiation tools need to be developed and made available for the general public. --------- grace.de-la-flor@bristol.ac.uk Institute for Learning and Research Technology University of Bristol 8-10 Berkeley Square, Bristol BS8 1HH, UK Tel: +44 (0)117 928 7184, Fax: +44 (0)117 928 7112 http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/ and http://www.ilrt.bris.ac.uk/id/
