Thanks.
I tried to verify our generated html with jtidy, but it reports too
many "false alarms" (e.g. usage of % in td/th width).
Anyone knows of a better verifier that can be used programmatically in
unittests ?
The w3c validators are normally the best bet, but they tend to be
online tools rather than programmatic ones. They are open-source
though, so it may be possible to integrate into unit tests.
Regarding the jtidy warnings, they are normally fair points and can be
fixed by moving to clean XHTML and CSS. I was contemplating the work
involved when reformatting the templates, and it wouldn't be too hard.
It'd be nice to move away from HTML4 and fully utilise CSS, but I
wasn't sure what your minimum requirements are.
