| 35 | * Validator of CSS pages through W3C validation API. | |
| 36 | * | |
| 37 | * <p>Retrieve it from {@link ValidatorBuilder} and use like this: | |
| 38 | * | |
| 39 | * <pre> HtmlValidator validator = new ValidatorBuilder().css(); | |
| 40 | * ValidationResponse response = validator.validate(text); | |
| 41 | * if (!response.valid()) { | |
| 42 | * // report about a problem | |
| 43 | * }</pre> | |
| 44 | * | |
| 45 | * <p>Sometimes this Jigsaw validator makes mistakes, sometimes you just need to | |
| 46 | * use some IE-specific feature, which is not CSS compliant. In this case you | |
| 47 | * may add comments to the document, at the end of every line you want to ignore | |
| 48 | * during validation, for example: | |
| 49 | * | |
| 50 | * <pre> div.test { | |
| 51 | * color: red; | |
| 52 | * #position: 50%; /* JIGSAW: this is a IE_-related hack */ | |
| 53 | * }</pre> | |
| 54 | * | |
| 55 | * <p>You can also instruct the validator to ingore the entire file, by means | |
| 56 | * of adding {@code JIGSAW IGNORE} comment anywhere in the text, for example: | |
| 57 | * | |
| 58 | * <pre> /* JIGSAW IGNORE: it's an experimental file */ | |
| 59 | * div.test { | |
| 60 | * something-totally-incorrect:... | |
| 61 | * }</pre> | |
| 62 | * | |
| 63 | * <p>Validation will happen anyway, but {@link ValidationResponse#valid()} | |
| 64 | * will return {@code TRUE}. You will still be able to read errors and warnings | |
| 65 | * from it, but it will be valid. | |
| 66 | * | |
| 67 | * <p>Objects of this interface should be immutable and thread-safe. | |
