excellent. :)

trying with:

$ java -classpath cssvalidator-2003-06-27.zip org.w3c.css.css.StyleSheetCom "http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/home.css"

file : http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/home.css
 
URI : http://www.w3.org/StyleSheets/home-import.css
 Line : 0 Context : .navBlock  in property : background
        Too many values or values are not recognized : #eec
 Line : 0 Context : .navBlock  in property : color
        #000 is not a color value : #000

read your bug report -- it's all rgb notation.)

$ java -classpath cssvalidator-2003-06-27.zip:xerces-2_4_0/xercesImpl.jar org.w3c.css.css.StyleSheetCom "http://www.w3.org/"
