How to get the Html Validation in W3C for various styles ?

Postby Foai » 03 Sep 2009, 11:27

Hello,

My board is running mainly 3 styles - 'Prosivler', 'Subsilver2', and 'Prosilver SE'. I am working on the html templates to get validation in W3C. How can I make sure the validation process is exactly for each styles. Because if I put the url in W3C validation page,e.g. http://mysite.com/index.php , I don't know the process is examing which styles.

I have tried to switch the board setting /default style to Prosilver or Subsilver2, but seems the result is same.

My situation is that I think I have finished Subsilver2 style by checking throug Firefox html validator add on and W3c. Both can get pass.

However, for Prosilver style there are still have error by checking through Firefox validator addon. But in W3C I don't know what url to put down there to check the Prosilver style. :?

Rich, please please please help me ! ;)

Assuming that the styles are installed. Go into the ACP->System. Under General Tasks, choose Spiders/Bots.

Choose the W3c bot, edit and change the style for the bot. Then W3c will use the style you selected and you can check that styles html. You can ensure by clicking on "More Options" at the [url=http://validator.w3.org/]W3c validator[/url], and choosing "Show source" before clicking on "Validate". Look for the name of your template in the output.

EG, prosilver is installed on here as well as pro_silver_se. Board default is set for pro_silver_se but W3c's style is set for prosilver. Prosilver has not been modified on this board.

You must ensure that in the ACP under Board Settings the default style is not set to override users choice.

Hi Rich,

Can you clear things up for me here with regard to validating a style?

If I go to board settings & select AcidTech, activate the validator for the same style, goto the board index & click on the validator Icon, I get 14 errors, however, If I disable the validator bot & click the Icon I get a clear?

I have checked that it's on the right style when validating, so which one do I go by & why error & clear??

If in the acp I select not to override the members style & choose a style of choice then click the validator icon, should it not check that one?

Regards

I sometimes just do a "view source" and directly past the code given into the validator "Direct Method" I think it is called as most times bots do not have permissions for everything that maybe being displayed to a registered member.

In your first method the bot is using the style selected for it within the UCP. If you then deactivate the bot, then it is treated as a guest.

Does that help any?
