1.8 ot 30: <h3 id="download">Download the CSS Validator</h3>
1.7 ot 31:
1.26 ot 32: <p>The CSS validator is available in three different packaging: from CVS for developers who want the very latest version,
33: as a jar archive to build applications and for use as a command line tool, and (since 2009) as a war archive for server-side
34: applications.</p>
35:
36: <h4 id="source">Download the source code</h4>
37: <p>The <a href="http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/2002/css-validator">source of the CSS Validator</a> can be retrieved with CVS.
38: Follow the <a href='http://dev.w3.org/cvsweb/'>instructions</a> to connect to the W3C's CVS server, and retrieve the
39: <code>2002/css-validator</code> module. Please note that the online service for the CSS validator is a stable release,
40: generally a little older than the version under CVS, and their results and behaviour may differ.</p>
41:
42:
43: <h4>Download the Java archive (jar)</h4>
44: <p><a href="http://www.w3.org/QA/Tools/css-validator/css-validator.jar">css-validator.jar</a></p>
45:
46: <h3>Installation Guide</h3>
47: <p>The CSS Validation service is based on a servlet written in the cross-platform Java language, and can
48: be installed on any servlet platform. While the official service from W3C runs under the Jigsaw server
49: (which is the recommended setup), we will for the sake of convenience describe in this guide the setup
50: under Apache's servlet engine, Tomcat, as well as some quick instructions for Jigsaw and commandline usage.</p>
1.7 ot 51:
1.8 ot 52: <h4 id="prereq">Prerequisites</h4>
1.7 ot 53:
1.26 ot 54: <p>This guide assumes that you have already downloaded and installed successfully the following:</p>
1.8 ot 55: <ul class="instructions">
1.26 ot 56: <li>a working java environment ;</li>
57: <li>the <a href="http://ant.apache.org/">Ant</a> java build tool ;</li>
58: <li>a Java servlet container such as <a href="http://www.w3.org/Jigsaw/">Jigsaw</a>,
59: <a href="http://tomcat.apache.org/">Tomcat</a> or <a href="http://www.mortbay.org/">Jetty</a>, if you plan to provide the validator as a web service.</li>
1.7 ot 60: </ul>
1.26 ot 61: <p id="prereq-libs">
62: As a prerequisite to the installation, you will need to know the complete path to the java library called <span class="file">servlet.jar</span>.
63: It is generally available within <span class="dir">[<span class="const">TOMCAT_DIR</span>]/common/lib/</span>, with <span class="dir">[<span class="const">TOMCAT_DIR</span>]</span> being the path under which Tomcat is installed. It may also be found under the name servlet-api.jar. If you can not
64: find it, <a href="http://java.sun.com/products/servlet/DOWNLOAD.html">java.sun.com</a> will have it.
65: </p>
1.7 ot 66:
1.26 ot 67: <h4>Installation of the CSS validator under Tomcat</h4>
1.8 ot 68: <ol class="instructions">
1.26 ot 69: <li>Download the CVS source as explained <a href="#source">above</a> ;</li>
70: <li>Edit the file called <span class="file">[<span class="const">VALIDATOR_DIR</span>]build.xml</span> and replace the value of
71: property servlet.lib with the full path to <span class="file">servlet.jar</span>
72: </li>
73: <li>
74: You can now build the source : from <span class="dir">[<span class="const">VALIDATOR_DIR</span>run the command <kbd>ant war</kbd>.
75: Running ant should download a number of necessary libraries, and build the archive called <span class="file">css-validator.war</span>.
76: </li>
77: <li>
78: Copy or move <span class="file">css-validator.war</span> to <span class="dir">[<span class="const">TOMCAT_DIR</span>]/webapps</span>.
79: <li>Finally, restart the Tomcat engine :<br />
1.8 ot 80: <kbd>"cd <span class="dir">[<span class="const">TOMCAT_DIR</span>]</span>; <span class="dir">./bin/</span><span class="file">shutdown.sh</span>; <span class="dir">./bin/</span><span class="file">startup.sh</span>;"</kbd>
1.26 ot 81: </li>
1.8 ot 82: </ol>
1.7 ot 83:
1.26 ot 84: <h4>Installation of the CSS validator under Jigsaw</h4>
1.8 ot 85: <ol class="instructions">
1.26 ot 86: <li>Download the CVS source as explained previously, save it under <span class="dir">[<span class="const">JIGSAW_DIR</span>]/WWW</span>
87: and build source with <kbd>ant jigsaw</kbd> ;
88: </li>
89: <li>Next, configure the root folder for the validator (in most cases it will be called css-validator) to make it a servlet container.
90: Within your Jigsaw installation, launch the Jigsaw Admin utility, browse to <code>css-validator</code> and change it from HTTPFrame to ServletDirectoryFrame ;</li>
91: <li>The next step will be to create a "validator" resource as 'ServletWrapper' class. A 'ServletWrapperFrame' frame will automagically
92: be created for it. You will need to provide the name of the servlet class, which for the CSS Validator os org.w3c.css.servlet.CssValidator.
93: Note that a file called “validator” may already be present – you MUST rename it, as the validator absolutely needs to enforce this name for the servlet wrapper ;</li>
94: <li>Make sure that all the .jar libraries within the <span class="dir">[<span class="const">JIGSAW_DIR</span>]/WWW/css-validator/lib</span> folder
95: are properly added to Jigsaw's CLASSPATH setup.</li>
96: <li>Finally, restart Jigsaw and point your browser to the validator. The URI should be something like :<br />
1.7 ot 97: http://localhost:8001/css-validator/validator.html</li>
1.8 ot 98: </ol>
1.7 ot 99:
1.26 ot 100: <h3>Command-Line use</h3>
1.7 ot 101:
1.26 ot 102: <p>Any computer with Java installed can also run the validator from the terminal/console as a commandline tool.
103: Download the css-validator.jar jar archive (or build it with <kbd>ant jar</kbd>) and run it as :<br />
104: <kbd>java -jar css-validator.jar http://www.w3.org/</kbd>.
1.8 ot 105: </p>
1.26 ot 106: <p>Note : the css-validator.jar file must be located at the exact same level as the lib/ folder to work properly.</p>
