[WSG] wcag, xhtml and javascript validation
Hi, A client of mine has asked for a solution for their testers, to check 'code quality' from partners. Its a big company, where, maybe, hundreds of small to large scale apps are released every year, and checking manually every page for wcag1.0 compliance, xhtml validity and javascript 1.5 correcteness is simply impossible. We have tried TAW ( http://www.tawdis.net/ ) , and it may be a good starting point, for the accessibility, at least. Anyone knows some other like this one ? - standalone app, - a crawler to check every page in a given level or subdomain, - give me a readable report in the end - I'd go crazy if it permits my input in forms where needed (so it could check the result pages of data entry) I have researched and found nothing about ecmascript-262 validation (or javascript 1.5 the same, i think). There's no need to be open source, but it would help, since they do have some very specific needs at some points. Any directions would be helpful, thanks spark -- [web] http://synapsisdi.com.br [livesets] http://djspark.com.br/mp3 *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
Re: [WSG] wcag, xhtml and javascript validation
Have you looked at linkalarm.com? They have (Or at least used to) heaps of crawlers that do all sorts of checks with detailed downloadable reports. Mainly free access unless you want to do the same check repeatedly...hope this helps.

Re: [WSG] wcag, xhtml and javascript validation
I just put my homepage through TAW I could not read the output light blue on a white background. I hated TAW it seems to just list guidelines and is inaccessible itself. I suppose you must know of Cynthia which I prefer as it passes or fails a page, simple readable output. http://www.cynthiasays.com/Default.asp Tim On 16/01/2007, at 12:08 PM, Noah wrote: Have you looked at linkalarm.com?

I have researched and found nothing about ecmascript-262 validation (or javascript 1.5 the same, i think). My understanding is that ECMAScript defines the "core" of JavaScript -- the variable types, function syntax, etc. It does *not* touch the subject of the DOM, so unless your JavaScript avoids manipulating any HTML (pretty unlikely) then you can't call it pure ECMAScript. The JavaScript implementation in browsers is a superset of ECMAScript and each browser family has its own dialect of JavaScript. In short, one can't validate JavaScript because there's no formal specification for all of the non-core functions. Wikipedia expresses it differently and says that "ECMAScript is supported in many applications, especially web browsers, where it's commonly called JavaScript. Dialects typically include their own, different standard libraries, of which some are standardized separately – such as the W3C-specified DOM." I think the practical implications are the same for you. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECMAScript HTH -- Philip http://NikitaTheSpider.com/ Whole-site HTML validation, link checking and more *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
Re: [WSG] wcag, xhtml and javascript validation
A nice tool for checking (possible) errors in JavaScript is JSLint from Douglas Crockford. There are a couple of options available how strict the tool works. http://www.jslint.com/lint.html Cheers, jens -- Jens Brueckmann http://www.yalf.de *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***

Here are a few Firefox extensions that can quickly check pages as you're visiting them. http://users.skynet.be/mgueury/mozilla/ http://www.totalvalidator.com/support/extension.html More https://addons.mozilla.org/search.php?app=firefox&q=validate Cheers Chris B *** List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ***
