(Ruby) Rendered WGet with Selenium

Mon, 18 Aug 2008 09:23:43 GMT

Created in response to a discussion about "ghosting," between Kord Campbell of Splunk and Christian Heilman of Yahoo! at Ajax World 2008. IMPORTANT: The Selenium-RC server must be running on port 4444 (the default) and you must have Curl and Tidy installed on your system. NOTE: Diffing the rendered versus the "server" source. This option works OK as a learning tool, but I need to do more in terms of normalizing the server source versus the rendered source. I run both the "server" and innerHTML sources through Tidy, but unfortunately there still seems to be a lot of extraneous differences between them. So while this works OK for downloading the rendered source via a Ruby script, I've got a ways to go before it can produce a reliable "rendered diff."

(Perl) Generate XHTML on the command line with XML::API::XHTML

Build a simple XHTML document, format it with Tidy and print the result to "temp.html."

(Bash) Validate XHTML with Tidy and/or OpenJade, just like the FF extension

Neither command will give any feedback unless invalid markup is found.

(Bash) check linked pages for Tidy validation errors, on the command line

Given a list of HTML links (most likely a saved Google results page) check each linked page and report if Tidy complains that its doctype declaration is missing. Besides DOCTYPE, other strings to search for include "discarding", "lacks value", "Error:"

Tidy the file named input.html. Indent the code, don't wrap, write output to output.html.
