Description Ralf Hauser 2003-08-10 10:38:55 UTC 
while http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=https//mydomain/index_en.html
works nicely as per bug 77,

when doing "http://validator.w3.org/check/referer" from
https://mydomain:8443/privaLope/index_en.jsp, I get " Sorry, this type of URI 
scheme  (undefined) is not supported by this service. Please check that you
entered the URI correctly."
Comment 1 Ralf Hauser 2003-12-03 05:13:30 UTC 
no clue whether this is really an SSL problem, but now with the above URL, I get
<<CSS Validator
Error
Target: https://bugs.privasphere.com:8443/index_en.jsp
java.lang.Exception: Unknown file >>
P.S.: hope this would also be working with HTTP AUTH as per Bug 122

See <http://validator.w3.org/docs/help.html#faq-referer>, your browser does not 
send a Referer: header which it likely does for SSL documents, you should 
specify the full URI in the parameter, otherwise it won't work.
