Description fd 2010-01-04 08:57:10 UTC
mobileOK tests only apply to HTTP/HTTPS URIs, but development of Web pages often start with local authoring and many of the tests would still be useful during this first phase.

Add a "file upload" method similar to that of the W3C Markup validation service:
 http://validator.w3.org
... and run as many tests as possible.

Make sure that the report is clear about the fact that some tests could not be run and thus that the resulting page cannot be said to be mobileOK.

The implementation of the file upload method should be fairly similar to that of the "direct input" method. See Bug 6813.

File upload method added.

Things worth noting:
1. the mobileOK Checker uses a fake "fileupload" URI scheme to represent the URI of the content when that method is used.

2. see bug 6813 for other things worth noting. Direct input and file upload are handled in the exact same way internally.
