Using either the W3C Validator API in my development server or the one in http://validator.w3.org/check will not detected any error or warnings. Only using the Tidy Library the validator detects any error.

My Drupal version is 6.14. Is there any know problem with this version?

Thanks.

There is no problems with 6.14. It should work ok.

It must be another problem with your installation. Is the page you are trying to validate public? It must be accesible by the anonymous user, and it must not have any kind of access restrictions (http auth, etc). Of course it will not work on private networks, it must be installed on a public web server.

Could you please provide more details about how you are using the module. Thanks.

Thank you for the reply.

Yes, pages are on a public server and don't have any kind of access restrictions.

Just to compare, this were the result of a test i made

- Validating just Nodes and only validating the Page content types using w3c validation gave me 0 url counts, 0 errors and 0 warnings.
- Validating just Nodes and only validating the Page content types using tidy validation gave me 14 url counts, 0 errors and 181 warnings.

In the w3c validation i used both the validation of http://validator.w3.org/check and a local validation using the official w3c validator.

Thanks in advance.

Same problem as miguelampereira. Validating with http://validator.w3.org with 0 errors, but with module 0 errors and a lot of warnings like:

Warning 5 9 replacing invalid character code 154
Warning 5 33 replacing invalid character code 155
Warning 9 51 replacing invalid character code 155
Warning 9 59 replacing invalid character code 155

and the summary result is not valid.

6.x version is no more supported. Not enough users and not enough life expectancy now that D8 will be released.
