Re: [Htmlvalidator-help] what about Linux x86_64?

[Marc G. <mg...@sk...>]

Hi Werner,

Thanks for your mail. Portablily of an extension is something really=20
complex. I do not have a good answer for this now.
Like you say, I should maybe have the extension more flexible to use=20
external programs. But it would mean writing down
each HTML before parsing on the HD.

Not sure if it is the best solutions, but maybe that is the way to go.=20
It is in my todo list and hope write it once to have
an platform dependent version. Hoping that it would be more easy to=20
maintain while I will loose at the same time
a lot of feature like dynamic filtering of errors or translation of=20
error message (what a lot of people requires)

Anyway, you can try playing with this:
 >=20

patibility#Power_Tip:_Installing_Extensions_You_Know_Are_Compatible

It should work or nearly work.
