On Japanese environment CSS Validator sends invalid text. See the following, please. ================================================================ $ LANG=C wget -S --header='Accept-Language: ja' --referer=http://www013.upp.so-net.ne.jp/ikeda/en/index.html http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/check/referer --10:19:50-- http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/check/referer => `referer' Resolving jigsaw.w3.org... done. Connecting to jigsaw.w3.org[138.96.249.65]:80... connected. HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 1 HTTP/1.1 200 OK 2 Cache-Control: no-cache 3 Date: Sat, 19 Jun 2004 01:19:50 GMT 4 Pragma: no-cache 5 Content-Language: ja 6 Content-Type: text/html;charset=euc-jp 7 Expires: Sun, 20 Jun 2004 01:19:50 GMT 8 Server: Jigsaw/2.2.2 W3C_CSS_Validator_JFouffa/2.0 [ <=> ] 9,276 26.80K/s 10:19:52 (26.80 KB/s) - `referer' saved [9276] $ kcc -c referer referer: ASCII ================================================================ There are two problems. 1. A Return message is broken. It is invalid text code. 2. A Return message does not specify Content-Type. Thaks.
Reproducible - OK. wget output in the bug report is misleading, here's what HEAD has to say: HEAD -H 'Accept-Language: ja' "http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator? uri=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.w3.org%2F&usermedium=all" 200 OK Cache-Control: no-cache Connection: close Date: Tue, 29 Jun 2004 01:11:12 GMT Pragma: no-cache Server: Jigsaw/2.2.4 Content-Language: ja Content-Length: 21669 Content-Type: text/html Client-Date: Tue, 29 Jun 2004 01:11:13 GMT Client-Peer: 138.96.249.65:80 Client-Response-Num: 1 (not sure where wget gets its "Content-Type: text/html;charset=euc-jp")
If I write <a href="http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http://www013.upp.so-net.ne.jp/ikeda/en/index.html">, it returns a valid Japanese result. If I write <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer">, it returns an invalid Japanese result. All Japanese characters are translated into "??". If it returns English or something readable, I will be happy... This problem happens on Mozilla, Galeon, Lynx and so on. I tried using wget and thought that it depends on the server response but web browsers. Data wget got was already broken. Thanks, P.S. <a href="http://validator.w3.org/check/referer"> works well. It alwalys returns English.
Fixed, see http://qa-dev.w3.org:8001/css-validator/
Sorry for too late reply. I test CSS Validator with some Japanese web sites. It works well. Thaks. P.S. Sorry that "Severity" level in my first post was off the point.
