Hey guys, I've just found that the HTTP client of the HTML Validator doesn't acknowledge the Content-Encoding header, in that a document served as text/html + content-encoding: gzip will be handled in it binary format, which of course won't work (and it might actually generate an invalid Invalid page, since the source of the file will be included in the error message). This bug is present both in the production and development versions of the validator. The correct behavior would be: - either to discard any document served with a content-encoding as non supported - or to actually decode the content-encoded document for a set of well-known encoding Dom -- Dominique Hazaël-Massieux - http://www.w3.org/People/Dom/ W3C/INRIA mailto:dom@w3.org
