Are you interested in site validation? Have you ever wanted a validation tool that will peer at all of a site’s markup language? on all pages?
What about links? on all pages? Or, HTTP Response Headers? DocTypes? Media Types? Character encodings?
Well… There’s,
Nikita the Spider * Bulk/Batch HTML Validation, Link Checking and More
Presently, this service tool is in beta stage and offered free of charge.
I strongly suggest trying it.
It’s—Most Likely—got whatever you need. If it doesn’t have those features you would like, Future Features offers more possibilities. And, if that doesn’t have enough things for you, Philip is requesting feedback and comments.
I tried it. I found some niggly errors on my site. They were corrected.
After reading through the reports and statistics that were returned, I thought of a second use for “Nikita the Spider”: preliminary site review. The Elementary Group gets requests for quotes. We perform a simple analysis of the requesting company’s site which includes code, structure, content and design; afterwhich, they’re sent a report. This manual sampling of pages suffices in most instances; however, some site analysis would benefit with the inclusion of additional statistics returned by the Nikita Service.
This validation service has potential. It's not The W3C Markup Validation Service but it doesn’t need to be.
