Strict HTML?
by Juha Tuomala on Monday 10/Dec/2001, @01:58

Does anyone know, will Quanta's pages pass W3C's validation?

I think that we don't need any more proprietary HTML-variants.

BTW, thank you developers for great work!

Well it will comply if you write W3C code! :-)

BUt in a word -- yeah it does....

So it does not do any syntax checking by itself? Only color highlighting?

Sorry, perhaps I should take time and read it's manual.

Cheers,

Juha

It does. Right click->Syntax check. Uses weblint for this.

You need nsgmls and a HTML 4.x DTD for any real checking. weblint just gives you hints and points out uglynesses (which nsgmls does not).

Quanta is not a Front Page or something like that. With Quanta you edit
html source, not graphical view of the page. (At least last time I used it!)
So Quanta does not generate any compliant or non-compliant pages.

It has a nice tag editor, but really with little effort one could write a Kate plugin to edit HTML tags, and to view the DOM tree and we would have something just as cool.

Quanta has a few other features, but only useful to those who do not have access to KDE.

HTML Preview, and network transparency.

Such a plugin for Kate basically already exists, see

Not necessarily true. Quanta+ is also the most 'comfortable' PHP(/HTML/Javascript) editor that I've run into so far. Even when I write PHP classes (without HTML) or even PHP 'standalone' scripts, I find Quanta more comfortable to use than Kate. Quanta's PHP/Javascript/HTML syntax highlighting seems much better than Kate's as well, at least last time I took a look at it.

(Not to denigrate Kate, which is a rather nice text editor in its own right...)
(And, of course, I hear rumors that KDevelop will have PHP support at some point in the future as well...)
