Headers such as: X-W3C-Validator-Recursion are printed as part of the response causing programs to fail and complain about invalid JSON. Tested using the following content as test.html: <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang="en"> <head> <title>title</title> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"/> </head> <body> </body> </html> And the following curl command: curl -sF "uploaded_file=@test.html;type=text/html" -F output=json http://validator.w3.org/check The output I get is: Status: 302 Found Location: https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=test.html&out=json Content-Type: application/json; charset=UTF-8 X-W3C-Validator-Recursion: 1 X-W3C-Validator-Status: Valid X-W3C-Validator-Errors: 0 X-W3C-Validator-Warnings: 1 { "url": "test.html", "messages": [ { "message": "The Content-Type was text/html.
