-===================================================- # W3C MarkUp Validator: Beta 3 # -===================================================- The W3C MarkUp Validator Team is pleased to announce the third Beta Release of The W3C MarkUp Validator version 0.6.0. The following changes and new features have been added since Beta 1: * The error message when the configuration file is not found is now much clearer. * The XML Output is now much improved, and nominally at Beta status. * Many spelling, captialization, and grammar fixes. * The DOCTYPE override will now replace the orginal DOCTYPE instead of always inserting it at the beginning fo the file. * Sample code in output and documentation has been updated. * More error messages now take into account whether file upload or normal processing was done. * Output layout has changed to adress usability concerns. * Many POST requests are now redirected to a GETable URL when possible. * Perl version 5.6.0 is now the minimum required version. * The jump links in output are now context sensitive. * We're now excruciatingly up fromt about SP's limitations with XML. * More links to external resources (thanks to Liam Quinn and the WDG). * We now allow the pedantically correct /referrer as well as /referer. :-) * Many output-escaping fixes and entity reference related fixes. * Properly escape URIs in result pages to avoid setting a bad example (people were just blindly copying it instead of reading the specs). * The documentation has been updated somewhat. This also closes the following reported bugs: ID Result Summary ==-======----==================================================== 1 FIXED XHTML 1.1/Basic 1.0 missing from detailed.html http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0066.html 2 FIXED ISO-8859-3 mislabelled on detailed.html. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0071.html 3 FIXED Results from Advanced form are not GETable. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0069.html 5 FIXED No Revalidate button on files without doctype [...]. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0072.html 7 FIXED Fatal Error: No DOCTYPE specified! http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0073.html 13 FIXED Caveat about limited XML support missing. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0075.html 15 FIXED Wrong MIME type for SVG. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0083.html 16 FIXED Config filename in error message is wrong. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0089.html 17 FIXED Bad style on invalid results page. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0094.html 19 FIXED "page NOT valid" should be "page not valid". 20 FIXED "this icon" is unclear after position of icon changed. 21 FIXED Find alternate way to handle buggy CSS implementations. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0077.html 23 FIXED Missing URI/File gives bad error message. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0159.html 25 INVALID preparse() called twice per request 40 INVALID Charset defaulting behaviour. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0190.html 41 FIXED Trailing slash on /check/ breaks relative links. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0197.html 46 FIXED "would validate" too hard to spot. 47 FIXED Output refers to "Strict" for a "Transitional" file. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0070.html 57 FIXED Validator requires perl >= 5.6.0 58 FIXED Doctype override always inserts to first line 59 FIXED Jump to bar has always same links 64 FIXED Validator does not escape & properly. http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/www-validator/2002Oct/0224.html -- Olivier Thereaux - W3C QA - http://www.w3.org http://www.w3.org/People/olivier | http://yoda.zoy.org
