HTML Validator

Extension not maintained ! Unable to refresh the analysis . the "HTML Validator" tabs keeps always the old release , even when i refresh the page CTLR+R. This important issue was logged 3 years ago ! (see #61 in gitlab issues)

It does not refresh itself after a page reload :(

Pretty decent, but it doesn't seem to be fully HTML5 compliant. It didn't like me using "checked" instead of checked="checked", both of which are valid for HTML5.

Does the job but doesn't update the page URL after clicking a link... makes it unusable

Good, it is very nice that can see the source directly from the HTML validator tab in dev tools so to inspect the errors... Thanks.

Upon initial load different errors are display then when page is reloaded.

I am not aware of this issue. It is maybe page dependent. Pleas send a mail with screenshot and description to mgueury@skynet.be. It would help to improve the user experience. Thanks.

Hi Leonid, Can you send me a mail about the details of the crash ? Which OS ? Which browser exactly. Which page is causing issue. If possible with screenshots. mgueury@skynet.be

Provide false errors / warning ... e.g. : <div id="xyz"> <p>sdqjdlqjdsq</p> </div> -> Please close the <div> before <p> ????

Works well aside from one major QoL issue. Chromium requires that I access the validator through the Developer Tools instead of always displaying for me the validation of the page I am currently on. Very annoying.

Sarsaparilla Sunset: Thanks for the idea but too dangerous in practice. The XMLHttpRequest would call the server a second time to get the HTML. If I was doing so, in a lot of situations, the extension would cause issues on the HTTP server program that is not done to be called twice with the same parameters.

I absolutely like how it integrates into the developer window, but it seems to be a bit outdated, f.e. it shows warnings about a propitary attribute called "nonce". For CSP i need that attribute. The online validation button is not showing that warning for some elements.
