Suggestion: Fix all errors of certain type

phossler · 02-07-2014, 06:35 PM

I really like the [Run Check] and the specific selectable corrections (very user friendly)

However, a 'middle ground' might be valuable

For example, the 'Replace named entities' is for a single html file, OR 'All fixable error automatically'

I really don't like to fix everything, but I might like to fix a condition in all files

If the single file options would allow that type of error to be corrected in all files, it would decrease a lot of effort.

Named entities are often only incompletely supported by various book reading software. Therefore, it is best to not use them, replacing them with the actual characters they represent. This can be done automatically.

Replace all named entities with their character equivalents in this file

Replace all named entities with their character equivalents in ALL files

Try to correct all fixable errors automatically

Re-run check

Thank you again.

Embarrassing questions

1. What do I do? I can't even figure out how to down load the .py files

2. The named entities and the font media type error messages were the ones that I see most often. There might be other error conditions that benefit from the technique

3. I try to stay current with releases, so maybe I'll just wait until 1.24

You have to wait till the next release. And the change i made is only for the named entities.

Or you can run from source, but only if you really feel the need to have the update a few days early.

It allows you to stay VERY current though.
