Html Validator 0.8.5.2

HTML Validator is a Mozilla extension that adds HTML validation inside Firefox and Mozilla. The number of errors of a HTML page is seen on the form of an icon in the status bar when browsing.
The details of the errors are seen when looking the HTML source of the page.
Html Validator is based on Tidy, originally developed by the Web Consortium W3C. And now extended and improved by a lot of persons. Tidy is embedded inside Mozilla/Firefox and makes the validation locally on your machine, without sending HTML to a third party server.
Tidy is a helpful program that tries to help people to correct their HTML errors. It finds HTML errors and classifies them in 3 categories:
- errors: HTML errors that Tidy cannot fix or understand.
- warnings: HTML errors that Tidy can fix automatically
- (optional) accessibility warnings: HTML warnings for the 3 priority levels defined in W3c WAI
System requirements:
- Firefox: 1.0 - 3.0.0.

- Bug Validate now (after javascript): problem solved when validating pages that were not in iso8859-p1.
- Added a new preferences called "highlight_max" that disable the highlighting if there is more that 100 (default) lines to highlight. The reason is that for big pages with a huge number of errors, the view source was too slow. So, now the default is working a lot better and people do not need to know that they should remove highlighting in such case.
