¶ Checky is a great plugin for Mozilla that gives you one-click page validation, configurable across any of 18 different online validation and analysis services. It’s not quite as groovy as the tool in Opera which will validate local files, although Checky’s scope is much wider.
Talking of which, the final release of Opera 7 is now available for download.

Yup, that went straight into my system. A must-have for geeky bloggers like us who have threatened to decapitate people who don’t write valid HTML.
...oh. Haven’t done that? Sorry, I’ll move along now.

I’m terrified of the huge page load of errors every time I go to validate another page of my archives at the W3C validator.
I can’t imagine was 18 different markup nannies screaming simultaneously would sound like… I may have to try it, but I will have my hand over my eyes when/if I do so…

Jay – fortunately you can use 1 markup nanny at a time! (and some of the others are accessibility nannies such as Bobby). Otherwise it would indeed be a cacophony of validation :-)

Oh thank GOODNESS! :-)

Ironically, using Checky to validate the Checky home page revealed unvalidated markup:
“http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://checky.mozdev.org/index.html&charset=(detect%20automatically)&doctype=(detect%20automatically)&verbose=1”:http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=http://checky.mozdev.org/index.html&charset=(detect%20automatically)&doctype=(detect%20automatically)&verbose=1
What was that about the cobbler’s son? ;-)
