W3C validator

[Joshua203]

How much credit would you give the w3c validator and the errors it might show

i mean lots of errors look just fine when viewed in more than one browser but officially they still are errors

do you check and run away because of the amount of work to repair, do you think it s important to repair every single error you get, do you also validate the css etc etc

comments and/or votes welcome... it s up to you ;)

I dont really like i give it a little priority... but not allot. Id pay som1 credits to do it for me. Thats it. I dont see to much of a point if my site works fine when it comes to cross browser compatibility.

It's good to fix most of the errors as there are browsers that will not see your site correctly.

I like to keep everything I code under W3 standards, so of course I use the validator after I check over my code to see if anything I didn't catch, the Validator finds.

I know that but i cross browser check things myself anyways plus allot of browsers still see things diferently even if its validated.

i forgot to add my own opinion and vote

i like to check it and see where i messed up, sometimes solving one error takes away 30 others, i think it s a great tool but i do sometimes descide to leave some errors in because they do not work cross platform but also do not cause problems in other browsers

so in short i voted the top choice because i like to remove all errors with a few exceptions (i now accept 7 css errors for scrollbar colouring in explorer)

thank you for all your opinions keep em comming

I find it important to stick to the standards. The more people that do, the more compliant browsers will become. However, if I find an error in an element that is necessary to the page, I won't stress over a perfect score. I use Dreamweaver validation instead of the w3c one.

My latest website is W3C compliment, HTML, CSS and all.

Although, sometimes it picks up on errors which browsers are fine with.
