SGML and HTML Document Validation Service
| STG lead(s): |
Richard Goerwitz |
This was a service that validated the markup of HTML and SGML documents submitted to it. When a user provided the text of a document (or its URL) and selected from a menu of Document Type Definitions (DTDs), the document was parsed and validated against the selected DTD. An output report listed any errors found. This was a nice web interface to nsgmls.
Since XML is now more widely used than SGML, since STG provides an XML Validator (http://www.stg.brown.edu/pub/xmlvalid/), and since more canonical sources now provide SGML/HTML validators (for example, the W3C's HTML validator at http://validator.w3.org/), we have discontinued the service.
