Any browser should have a simple tool for clearing a particular text input area (which is what this is about). E.g. on Windows, click on the area and enter Ctrl+A Ctrl+X. Or just Ctrl+A if the next operation is pasting something there and typing something there. > Currently, the only way I can clear the code of the CSS Validator window > is by selecting and cutting > it out before I am able copy and re-paste my fixed CSS code back into > the W3C CSS validator. You can normally do this in a simple and fast manner, possibly faster than by clicking on a destruction button. > A clear button would be appreciated by everyone that uses this free service. No, it would not. A “clear button” is really a destruction button that irrevocably removes all data entered by the user in the form. (This would include any non-default settings for the dropdowns.) Even though people mostly paste text in the area, they may type it (and intend to copy and paste it if it validates). Wiping out all the input when you accidentally hit a destruction button is very frustrating. Yucca
