Hi all
This is just a suggestion on how you quick and easy can see if your skins, containers and the rest of your code is validating against w3c recommandations.
Instead of calling the html validator all the time you can see immidiately down in the right corner of your browser how many errors and warnings the page contains.
Also this tip shows you if the page is in Quirks mode og there is any JavaScript errors or warnings. This is shown in the upper right corner.
As an example you can see that the page you are reading now have
- 1 error,
- over 150 warnings,
- works in quirks mode
- contains JavaScript warnings
- which you can investigate in details by 1 rightclick.
How to:
Step 1. If you are a real developer you allready have installed the latest version of Mozilla Firefox.
Step 2. Get and install these 2 extensions
Html Validator
Web Developer
If you look around on the other developer extensions there are a lot who can make your work much more fun. (MeasureIt, ColorZilla, IEView, Lori ...)
You can always disable the tools. This is good, because there are NOT many pages on the internet who produce good and robust code !!!
