Using
OmniWeb 4.5, you can set up a shortcut in the Preferences to easily validate the HTML of web pages.
Go to the Preferences and select Shortcuts. Add a new shortcut (click the "+" sign) and then double-click the "somewhere" name and rename it to
validate@. For the "Destination URL," enter
http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=%@.
To use the shortcut, just type
validate www.somesite.com, hit return, and watch it use the w3c validator to validate the page.
